During World War I Antiwar protests gave rise to many significant free speech cases related to issues and fomenting violence. In the 1919 case Schenck v. United States, the Supreme Court pointed that an antiwar activist did not have a First Amendment right to tribunal draft resistance.

Justice Holmes proposed the clear and present danger test, that would become a vital concept in First Amendment law; but the Schenck decision did not formally accept the test.

Holmes soon wrote his intention about the clear and present danger test. He intended the said test to refine, not replace, the bad tendency test.

Hope this helps.

True or false in the civil war The north was afraid that African-American soldiers will turn against whites if they were armed

BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

False, this was the south's belief

Explanation:

The south was afraid that the African Americans would turn against their slave owners since the war was to end slavery and the question of why African Americans would fight to keep slavery going was asked frequently in the South. Since the North abolished slavery, they had very little to fear from the African Americans. In fact, the African Americans were the majority of the fighters in the Northern side. Hope this helps!
