EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in American history - President Wilson addressing Congress and recommending the United States' entry into World War I. Taken in 1917, this historic image showcases Thomas Woodrow Wilson, the 28th President of the United States, as he passionately speaks to members of Congress in Washington DC. President Wilson's decision to advocate for war came after Germany's adoption of unrestricted submarine warfare, which posed a direct threat to American shipping. Additionally, Germany's attempt to persuade Mexico to join them further solidified his belief that America needed to take action. Just four days after this powerful speech, the United States declared war on Germany. This photograph immortalizes the very moment when President Wilson made his case for entering what would become one of the deadliest conflicts in human history. The image not only portrays an influential leader but also provides a glimpse into the political climate and atmosphere within Congress during this critical time. It serves as a reminder of how leaders are faced with difficult decisions that shape nations and alter world events. Preserved by Historica Graphica Collection, this remarkable print offers us a window into an era filled with tension and uncertainty. As we reflect on this significant chapter in American history, we are reminded of President Wilson's leadership and his role in shaping our nation's destiny during World War I.
