This statement is true. There are several different events that show America is far from isolationist during this roughly 160 year period. Here are some examples of major events that show America's lack of isolationism.
1) Manifest Destiny- During this era in American history (early to mid 19th century), the US gained thousands of miles in territory from countries like France (through the Louisiana Purchase) and Mexico (through the Mexican-American War and Mexican Cession).
2) Imperialism- The era of American imperialism (late 19th and early 20th century) resulted in the US expanding their territory, annexing places like Puerto Rico and Hawaii.
3) World War I (1917-1919)- The US got involved in World War I after Germany made several actions that upset the American government and citizens. This includes the sinking of the Lusitania and the Zimmerman Telegram.

Letter from Jackie Robinson on Civil Rights.
The main reason that Jackie Robinson has to write his letter to President Eisenhower is that he hopes that the president will take immediate action to curb segregation laws at the federal level.
Explanation:
17 million Negroes cannot do as you suggest and wait for the hearts of men to change. We want to enjoy now the rights that we feel we are entitled to as Americans. This we cannot do unless we pursue aggressively goals which all other Americans achieved over 150 years ago.
As the chief executive of our nation, I respectfully suggest that you unwittingly crush the spirit of freedom in Negroes by constantly urging forbearance and give hope to those pro-segregation leaders like Governor Faubus who would take from us even those freedoms we now enjoy. Your own experience with Governor Faubus is proof enough that forbearance and not eventual integration is the goal the pro-segregation leaders seek.
In my view, an unequivocal statement backed up by action such as you demonstrated you could take last fall in dealing with Governor Faubus if it became necessary, would let it be known that America is determined to provide—in the near future—for Negroes—the freedoms we are entitled to under the constitution.
