April 2, 1917: President Thomas Woodrow Wilson Addresses Congress to Recommend Entering World War I on the Side of the Allies In this historic photograph, President Thomas Woodrow Wilson (1856-1924) is seen addressing the American Congress in the House Chamber on April 2, 1917, to recommend the United States' entry into World War I on the side of the Allies. Four days later, on April 6, 1917, the USA declared war on Germany. Wilson, a renowned politician and scholar, had long been reluctant to involve the US in the European conflict. However, after the interception and publication of the Zimmermann Telegram, a German proposal to Mexico for an alliance against the US, public opinion shifted, and Wilson felt compelled to act. In his powerful and eloquent address, Wilson outlined his reasons for seeking a war declaration, emphasizing the need to make the world "safe for democracy" and to protect American interests. The president's words resonated with the Congress and the American people, who were increasingly alarmed by the threat posed by Germany's military and naval power. The photograph captures a pivotal moment in world history, as Wilson, surrounded by senators and representatives, delivers his impassioned plea for war. The gravity of the situation is evident on the faces of the congressmen, who listen intently to the president's words. This image is a testament to Wilson's leadership and the collective resolve of the American people during a time of great upheaval and uncertainty. The entry of the US into World War I marked a turning point in the conflict, which lasted until 1918. Wilson's decision to involve the US in the war had far-reaching consequences, shaping the course of American foreign policy for decades to come.
