Free Speech and the Suppression of Dissent During World War I

World War I, given all the rousing "Over-There" songs and in-the-trenches films it inspired, was, at its outset, surprisingly unpopular with the American public. As opposition increased, Woodrow Wilson's presidential administration became intent on stifling antiwar dissent.

Primul Razboi Mondial, avand in vedere toate melodiile „Over-There” si filmele din transee pe care le-a inspirat, a fost, la inceput, surprinzator de nepopular pentru publicul american. Pe masura ce opozitia a crescut, administratia prezidentiala a lui Woodrow Wilson a devenit intentionata sa inabuse disidenta anti-razboi.
