Interpret figures of speech (e.g., hyperbole, paradox) in context and analyze their role in the text.

In this excerpt from Kennedy's 1963 Civil Rights Address what idea is being most clearly defined?

"This is not a sectional issue. Difficulties over segregation and discrimination exist in every city, in every State of the Union, producing in many cities a rising tide of discontent that threatens the public safety. Nor is this a partisan issue. In a time of domestic crisis men of good will and generosity should be able to unite regardless of party or politics."
