Mark Twain, iconic American literary writer & humorist, championed the ANTI-IMPERIALIST cause, opposing United States' anti-democratic expansionism (Circa Filipino-American War, 1899-1914).

Sa sinamaang palad, hindi nakinig ang Kalbong Agila sa mga tulad nila kung kaya't nanakaw ang kasarinlan ng Pilipinas.
