5 oct. 1937 - FDR's "Quarantine" Speech

Description:

Franklin D. Roosevelt's "Quarantine Speech" was delivered on October 5, 1937, in Chicago, advocating for international isolation of aggressive nations as a preventive measure against the spread of war, akin to quarantining a disease. This speech marked a shift in American foreign policy from isolationism to a more proactive, albeit non-military, involvement in international affairs as a response to rising tensions from conflicts in Asia and Europe.
