Answer:
The entry of the United States into World War II caused vast changes in virtually every aspect of American life. Millions of men and women entered military service and saw parts of the world they would likely never have seen otherwise. The labor demands of war industries caused millions more Americans to move--largely to the Atlantic, Pacific, and Gulf coasts where most defense plants located. When World War II ended, the United States was in better economic condition than any other country in the world. Even the 300,000 combat deaths suffered by Americans paled in comparison to any other major belligerent.
The power is concurrent power, examples of concurrent power would be the power to tax citizens, create lower courts, and build roads. These are shared by the federal and state/local government to ensure that the state functions properly.
Booker T. Washington was an influential speaker, leader, and educator. He advocated a policy of Accommodation that stated:
- African Americans must adapt to Segregation
- Government couldn't legislate equality
- African Americans could eventually gain equality through education and hard work
( He was criticized for his views by many people)
Du Bois was a Sociologist and an Activist. He was the founding member of the NAACP (National Association for Advocacy of Colored People). He was against Booker Washington's Accommodation approach and was unhappy with the slow progress towards equality.
Du Bois Wrote " Souls of Black Folk" in 1903 in which he said:
- Accommodation would only reinforce segregation
- Segregation will end if African Americans took action.
- The "Talented Tenth" would be the leader of the movement
- Classical Education was superior to teaching job skills
This kind of activism shaped the civil rights movement of 1950's and 1960's.
Hope this helps! Have a Great Day!
