American History website

According to the American History website the League was formed in November. You can see their page and the wikipedia page here: Answers.com. I have no idea which date is correct, so I'm just letting you know so you can find out yourself and change it if needed.--70.113.79.34 18:26, 30 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The American Anti-Imperialist League Reinstated

The following was removed from this website recently:

The American Anti-Imperialist League has since been reestablished on the social networking site www.facebook.com by a descendant of the league's former Vice-President Louis F. Schade.

Maybe this can be added to the trivia section if someone can find a source? Travb (talk) 11:39, 5 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A facebook search for the Louis F. Schade group yielded no results. However, the American Anti-Imperialist League has been reinstated. It's facebook presence is here: http://soas.facebook.com/group.php?gid=6327108369
The AAIL(R) expects rapid growth in the near future. Its platform is a slightly modified version of the original 1898 document. The AAIL(R)'s strategic vision will be announced in due course. Please join us in making the League a success. 76.23.153.173 (talk) 07:16, 22 November 2007 (UTC) Peace & Solidarity, R.E.D.[reply]

why did the american anti-imperialists appose expansion? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.47.155.128 (talk) 03:21, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What did they "appose" with expansion? I think what you mean is "oppose", I suppose. Who knows, perhaps they were against violence, war, exploitation -in a word, "imperialism". Hence their moniker, "anti-imperialist". Hope that helps. Teetotaler —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.68.144.114 (talk) 23:07, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

What did they actually DO?

This article is basically a list of people who joined the league and minutiae about how many vice-presidents they had and where they had offices. But what did they actually do to try to stop imperialism? Did they initiate or support law suits? Did they lobby politicians? etc. Pascalulu88 (talk) 14:46, 21 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A lawsuit wouldn't have done any good. They mainly tried to influence public opinion, to try to tamp down the level of jingoism after the Spanish-American war. The article does include the sentence: "One of the primary activities of the Anti-Imperialist League was the production of political leaflets and pamphlets"...
