Final answer:

The Anti-Imperialist League was a group opposed to American expansionism; Teddy Roosevelt was not a member of this group and in fact held imperialist views.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Anti-Imperialist League was a coalition that included several high-profile Americans who were opposed to the idea of American empire building and expansionism. The group's members strongly believed in liberty and self-determination for all, regardless of race or color, and included reformer Jane Addams, writer Mark Twain, labor leader Samuel Gompers, and steel magnate Andrew Carnegie. Given the options provided:

  • a) Teddy Roosevelt
  • b) Jane Addams
  • c) Mark Twain
  • d) Grover Cleveland
  • e) Andrew Carnegie

The correct answer to the question of which individual was not an anti-imperialist is a) Teddy Roosevelt. He was known for his imperialist views and did not support the Anti-Imperialist League's stance against American expansionism.
