Explanation:

Muhammad Ali's opposition to the Vietnam War was rooted in his stance that the U.S. should address racial injustice and inequality within its own borders rather than fighting overseas. He famously framed this as prioritizing domestic civil rights over foreign military intervention, rejecting the idea of fighting for freedom abroad while Black Americans faced oppression at home. Options A, B, and D do not align with his core stated reasoning.

Answer:

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