The correct answer is they were rich in resources and were thinly settled.

<em>New Mexico, California, and Texas attracted expansionist in the 1890s because these states were rich in resources and were thinly settled. </em>

In those years, the idea that America had a “manifested destiny” was widely believed by many people in the United States. They knew that these states were practically deserted but had many raw resources that could be exploited. So with this manifested destiny, people believed that these states could be part of America and remake the west with the Eastern traditions of the United States and share the culture and traditions that the Northeastern states had. That is why New Mexico, California, and Texas attracted expansionist in the 1890s because these states were rich in resources and were thinly settled.

Because they could be turned into slave states, giving more power to the slaveowners in the south. Also, expansion policy and the dram of Manifest Destiny played a part in desiring that land.

Answer:

One way to treat discrimination is to have government intervention discrimination, because federal laws of the United States prohibit discrimination based on a person's country of origin, race, color, religion, disability, sex, and familial status. Laws prohibiting national origin discrimination deem discrimination or discriminatory acts illegal because of a person's birthplace, ancestry, culture or language (The United States Department of Justice n.p.). The state government also has the power to make laws prohibiting people from discriminatory acts. Many states enacted laws that ban any and all forms of discrimination. Specifically, six states have passed ballot initiatives in order to amend their constitutions and prohibit state and local governments from portraying discrimination in public, contract making, and educational aspects on the basis of race, ethnicity, or sex. These states include California in 1996, Washington in 1998, Michigan in 2006, Nebraska in 2008, Arizona in 2010, and Oklahoma in 2012 (Clegg and von Spavosky n.p.).

Another way to eradicate discrimination is to promote diversity in our society. Diversity was introduced as a kind of end run around the historical problem of racism, the commitment to diversity is associated with the struggle against racism. The objective of eradication or treating racism is to create a color-blind society rather and having a color-conscious society. Instead of treating people as if their race does not matter, we should not only recognize but celebrate racial identity (Michaels). Cultural diversity is important, because workplaces, and schools increasingly consist of various cultural, racial, and ethnic groups which we could learn from. Learning about other cultures helps understand different perspectives within the world in which we find ourselves in, dispelling negative stereotypes and personal biases about different groups or ethnicities. In addition, cultural diversity helps us recognize and respect other cultures. It also makes our country a more interesting place to reside, because people from diverse cultures or contribute to our language skills, thought process, knowledge,
