History

Paul [167]3 years ago
7 0

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

White is a metaphor for power." James Baldwin. Unfortunately so true in the history of the United States.

As we have witnessed the recent horrible events in different parts of the United States regarding race violence, we have to make a stop and truly reflect on the reasons for white supremacy in the country. Since colonial times, the race has been an issue. Even after the Civil War, the lesson was not learned and the nation was still divided. Too many things have happened over the years. But white dominance is still one of the US characteristics in society.

Some people thought that the arrival of Barak Obama to the US presidency would change things and that he could unite the nation but things got worse. The US continues to divide more. And with the new US President, the country is completely divided. So yes, white is still the dominant political and economical force in the United States.

Which statements accurately describe the Cold War multi choice
Cloud [144]

A. Yugoslavia had a communist government but resisted Soviet control.

B. The United States sent aid to Greece and turkey to prevent communism from spreading to those countries.

D. When Hungarians tried to gain independence, the Soviet Union sent tanks to crush the revolt.

Explanation:

The Cold War was a period from the end of the World War II until the beginning of the 1990's. This period is marked as having lot of tensions, arms race, space race, and fight for global power between the capitalism and the communism, with the two main players being the United States and the Soviet Union.

Yugoslavia was an interesting case during the Cold War, as this was a country that was communist but it was not an ally to the Soviet Union. Yugoslavia didn't took sides and was trying to balance between the two. The frustrations of the Soviets were so big that a war between the two almost occurred and tens of assassins were sent to murder Tito but none of them were successful.

The United States were doing everything in their power to stop the spread of communism, especially at strategically important countries, such as Turkey and Greece. With all of the Balkans being communist, the United States rushed to intervene and support the anti-communist movements and governments in these two countries.

When it came to controlling the people, the Soviet Union was brutal. The majority of the people did not like the communism and they revolted against it, as was the case in Hungary. The manner in which the Soviets reacted was terrible, sending tanks to run over the people and crush the revolt.
