Franklin Roosevelt's "Day of Infamy" speech was a response to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. In his speech to Congress on December 8, 1941, President Roosevelt famously declared that the attack was a "date which will live in infamy." The speech served as a call to action, urging Congress to declare war on Japan, marking the entry of the United States into World War II. The attack on Pearl Harbor was a turning point in American history, galvanizing the nation and solidifying its commitment to join the Allied forces in the fight against Axis powers during the war.
I hope this helped!
