C. He argued that the country’s leaders should focus on correcting injustices at home.

“Why should they ask me
to put on a uniform and
go 10,000 miles from
home and drop bombs

people while so-called
Negro people in Louisville
aré treated like dogs”

Ali correctly believed that black Americans were fighting for democratic rights in a foreign country while being denied those same rights here in the US. He saw military service as a hypocrisy and an injustice, which is why he refused his military induction.

The correct option for the statement that summarizes Muhammad Ali's opposition to the United States's involvement in the Vietnam War is C. He argued that the country's leaders should focus on correcting injustices at home.

What did Muhammad Ali say about fighting in the Vietnam war?

"Why should me and different so-called Negroes move 10,000 miles far away from right here in the US to drop bombs and bullets on different innocent brown human beings who've in no way bothered us?" he stated. "I'm able to say directly, no, I can now not pass 10,000 miles to help kill innocent humans."

Conclusion: Racists branded them each with unsightly stereotypes. They decried King's insistence on the consideration and well-worth of Black men and his agitation on behalf of the bad, and derided Ali's insistence on Black pride, from his name alternate in 1964 to his resistance to the Vietnam battle as a white man's fight.
