The correct answer is B) Urged Americans to oppose the military draft during World War I.

This famous incident resulted in the Supreme Court case Schenk vs. US.

In this Supreme Court case, Schenk argued that his anti-war stance should be protected under the first amendment right of freedom of speech. However, the Supreme Court ruled against Schenk. The justices stated that Schenk's speech presented a "clear and present danger" to American society, hence why it was not protected by the first amendment right to free speech.

In two or three paragraphs, explain why you think that the United States adopted a new foreign policy in the 1900's and whether
iren [92.7K]
No matter what some people may think about our foreign policy in the 1900s, the facts speak for themselves. Our foreign policy in the 1900s enabled us to become the most powerful nation on earth. The rulers of this country have had the capacity to use that strength for good. In the 1900s, we used our military might and economic prowess a number of times to defend weaker countries and assist poorer nations. As a result of our sound foreign policy, we saved Europe from the tyranny of Nazi aggression, while we attempted to halt the advances of Communism in Korea and Vietnam. Our Marshall plan helped Europe rebuild its economy after WWII. Our Berlin airlift prevented tens of thousands of East Germans from starving to death. Now, i know this isn't 2 or 3 paragraphs but you should expand on what i put.
