The phrase "40 acres and a mule" refers to the promise made by the U.S. government to provide recently freed slaves with land and a mule after the Civil War. This promise was largely unfulfilled as the policy was eventually reversed.
This riddle often refers to "a promise." A promise is something that can be made and desired to be fulfilled, yet it can remain unfulfilled or empty if not acted upon. It symbolizes the potential for commitment and expectation, but also the reality that intentions can sometimes go unactualized. Thus, while it holds the desire to be filled, it can ultimately remain empty.
The phrase relates to the value of fufilling one's responsibilities, being steadfast and dependable. There is a great value in living up to your obligations, especially when so many promises are forgotten or unfulfilled.
Yes, it is true that in 1940, President Franklin D. Roosevelt sought reelection for a third term while indicating a shift away from strict American neutrality. He emphasized the need to support allies, particularly Britain, in their fight against Axis powers, which was reflected in policies such as the Lend-Lease Act. Although he did not explicitly promise to enter the war, he aimed to bolster military aid and preparedness, signaling a more interventionist stance.
The promise of "40 acres and a mule" was made to formerly enslaved African Americans during the Reconstruction era following the Civil War. This promise was intended as a form of reparations to help them establish independent lives and livelihoods. However, the promise was not widely fulfilled, and most freed slaves did not receive the land or resources they were promised. The phrase has since become a symbol of the unfulfilled commitments made to African Americans in the pursuit of equality and justice.

Stalin promised to establish a sphere of influence in Eastern Europe following World War II, which included supporting the installation of communist governments in various countries. This was part of his broader strategy to secure the Soviet Union's borders and spread communist ideology. While he initially pledged to allow free elections, this promise was largely unfulfilled as the Soviet Union exerted tight control over the region, leading to the establishment of authoritarian regimes loyal to Moscow.
