"General Smith's Views of the Powers and Policy of the Government of the United States" by Joseph Smith is a rousing call for change within the American political system during a time of immense social upheaval. It is a pointed examination of the shortcomings of the United States government, particularly its failure to adequately address issues of equality and freedom, and highlights the hypocrisy of a nation founded on ideals it doesn't fully uphold through advocating for major reforms needed to align the nation's actions with its founding principles. Centering on the moral imperative of equality and justice for all, particularly enslaved people, Smith champions a vision of unity and condemns the self-serving actions of politicians that undermine the true potential of the nation, urging readers to stand up and guide the future the country in a way that reflects the true ideals of a just, free, and unified America.
