Answer:

A. Philip Randolph

Explanation:

The armed forced during WWII were heavily segregated and there were many reports of violations of civil rights, violence, and racism towards African American soldiers.  It was brought to President Truman's attention that something had to be done to end the discrimination in the military.  In that context, an African American activist named A. Philip Randolph, explained to Truman that if the armed forces were not desegregated then African Americans would no longer want to serve in the military.  Truman took this into consideration, as well as the fact that he wanted political support from African Americans and decided to sign Executive Order 9981 that officially banned segregation and discrimination in the military.

how did great britain’s position in north america change relative to the other european powers during the first three-quarters o
ozzi
The English replaced France and Spain as the single-most influential political and economic power in North America during the first three quarters of the eighteenth century. During that time, the North American part of Spanish Empire covered an immense but sparsely populated and economically inactive territory. The colonies consisted of several small and isolated urban clusters, mostly under the control of Indian. The colonies' dependence on trade and extraction of Indian labor, and failure to attract settlers made the colony impoverish. Florida remained a stagnant military outpost, and others were dotted by a small number of mission outposts that attempted to convert Indian. French colonies, in contrast, was able to rival the British ones. It possessed a expanding colony in Canada and continued into Mississippi River Valley. Prosperous farming communities with a vibrant and established social life developed in colonies. Though populated, the colonies were still dwarfed by the British ones, due to the dominant prejudice against emigration. Yet the French still posed a threat to British in military and trading power. However, after the power struggle in the Seven Years' War, the British obtained Canada from French and Florida from Spain, and became the dominant power in North America.
