The correct answer is B. cede Florida to the United States

In 1818 American troops captured the entire western part of the Floridas, that during that time was a Spanish territory. Americans also pressured Spain by supporting the independence movements forming in Latin America. Because of this situation, the Adams-Onís Treaty was signed. In this treaty, Spain ceded Florida to the US, but they also agreed to settle a boundary between Louisiana and Spanish territory in the West.

W.E.B Du Bois and Booker T. Washington similarities and differences
klio [65]

Two great leaders of the black community in the late 19th and 20th century were W.E.B. Du Bois and Booker T. Washington. However, they sharply disagreed on strategies for black social and economic progress. Their opposing philosophies can be found in much of today’s discussions over how to end class and racial injustice, what is the role of black leadership, and what do the ‘haves’ owe the ‘have-nots’ in the black community.

Booker T. Washington, educator, reformer and the most influentional black leader of his time (1856-1915) preached a philosophy of self-help, racial solidarity and accomodation. He urged blacks to accept discrimination for the time being and concentrate on elevating themselves through hard work and material prosperity. He believed in education in the crafts, industrial and farming skills and the cultivation of the virtues of patience, enterprise and thrift. This, he said, would win the respect of whites and lead to African Americans being fully accepted as citizens and integrated into all strata of society.

W.E.B. Du Bois, a towering black intellectual, scholar and political thinker (1868-1963) said no–Washington’s strategy would serve only to perpetuate white oppression. Du Bois advocated political action and a civil rights agenda (he helped found the NAACP). In addition, he argued that social change could be accomplished by developing the small group of college-educated blacks he called “the Talented Tenth:”

“The Negro Race, like all races, is going to be saved by its exceptional men. The problem of education then, among Negroes, must first of all deal with the “Talented Tenth.” It is the problem of developing the best of this race that they may guide the Mass away from the contamination and death of the worst.”

At the time, the Washington/Du Bois dispute polarized African American leaders into two wings–the ‘conservative’ supporters of Washington and his ‘radical’ critics. The Du Bois philosophy of agitation and protest for civil rights flowed directly into the Civil Rights movement which began to develop in the 1950’s and exploded in the 1960’s. Booker T. today is associated, perhaps unfairly, with the self-help/colorblind/Republican/Clarence Thomas/Thomas Sowell wing of the black community and its leaders. The Nation of Islam and Maulana Karenga’s Afrocentrism derive too from this strand out of Booker T.’s philosophy. However, the latter advocated withdrawal from the mainstream in the name of economic advancement.

A Last Interview with W.E.B. Du Bois

This interesting 1965 article by writer Ralph McGill in The Atlantic combines an interview with Du Bois shortly before his death with McGill’s analysis of his life. In the interview, Du Bois discusses Booker T., looks back on his controversial break with him and explains how their backgrounds accounted for their opposing views on strategies for black social progress

The Souls of Black Folk by W.E. B. Du Bois

Here is the full text of this classic in the literature of civil rights. It is a prophetic work anticipating and inspiring much of the black consciousness and activism of the 1960s. In it Du Bois describes the magnitude of American racism and demands that it end. He draws on his own life for illustration- from his early experrience teaching in the hills of Tennessee to the death of his infant son and his historic break with the ‘accomodationist’ position of Booker T. Washington..

Using complete sentences, identify two ways humans in South and Southeast Asia have modified their water supply. What are the po
REY [17]

<em>Modifications in South Asia</em>, where almost 1.6 billion people live, are important measures to deal with urbanization and population growth. Research has estimated that almost 20 of 32 cities in India have water shortages on a daily basis. Residents of <em>Kathmandu </em>need to wait for hours to get water from the city. This modification helps with the control of water supply but restricts the amount of water to be used by the citizens.

Another South Asian government modification in <em>Pakistan</em>, hides vital information regarding water supply. Fort he government it is classified information, although there are treaties like the <em>Ganges Treaty</em>(1996) that supports the sharing of international information regarding hydroeletric. This is a measure that the Pakistan authorities consider critical for the control and benefit of water. But the lack of information sharing has also affected the government’s ability to deal effectively with natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes, and landslides .
