The correct answer is B.

The Sedition Act of 1918 extended the Espionage Act of 1917, covering a broader range of offences they were also prohibited since its enactment, mostly those which were positioned against the goverment or the war effort.

During WWI, twosocialists, Charles Schenck and Elizabeth Baer handed out fliers in which they stated that the draft was violating the Thirteenth Amendment by obliging citizens to go to war against their will, or in other words, to oblige them to involuntary servitude.

The Supreme Court decided that the Espionage and Sedition Acts should be enforced and that in this Schenck v. United States case, obstructing the draft was considered a criminal offence.

k0ka [10]

Answer:

Explanation: There was a clash of cultures between the Native Americans and the White Settlers. As a result, the Native Americans felt that the white settlers were ruining the earth and the settlers distrusted and feared the Natives. 2) Manifest Destiny resulted in the white settlers taking over the land. Buffalo was the main food source for Plains Indians. ... Westward expansion impacted the culture of the Plains Indians.
