Why did harry Truman contribute to World War II?

History
1 answer:
Aleks [24]4 years ago
6 0

Because he wanted to end war as fast as possible

Explanation:

  • Truman was vice president for only 82 days before President Roosevelt died.
  • He had very little significant discussions on world affairs and domestic politics after taking the oath of office for Roosevelt's vice president and was completely unaware of major initiatives to continue the successful war - most notably the secret project Manhattan, which at the time of Roosevelt's death, was on the highlight of testing the first atomic bomb.
  • Truman was soon briefed on the Manhattan Project and approved the use of nuclear weapons against Japan in August 1945 after the Potsdam Declaration was rejected by the Japanese Empire.
  • The atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki remained to this day the first, but also the only, use of nuclear weapons for war purposes. The bombing was followed by the rapid capitulation of Japan on September 2, 1945, and the end of World War II. The use of nuclear weapons was not controversial at the time, both in the US and among its allies.
  • At the Potsdam Conference, Joseph Stalin advised Truman to use the atomic bomb as soon as possible. In the years following the bombing, Truman's decision became extremely controversial, and it was said why he decided to do so.

Part A which statement identifies the central idea of the text? Langston Hughes hidden influence on MLK
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

Despite not explicitly discussing Hughes or his poetry, King quietly conveyed Hughes’ words and ideas in several of his speeches.

Explanation:

"Langston Hughes Hidden Influence on MLK" is an article written by Jason Miller. The article talks about how the poet Hughes has impacted Martin Luther King Jr.

In his article, he asserts that MLK used to use the words of poet Hughes publicly. But during the time of Civil Right's Movement, MLK stopped publicly saying Hughes name.

The central theme, therefore, of the article is that despite not explicitly discussing Hughes name, he quietly used his words in his speeches, sermons, etc.

Describe one way that the roaring 20s represented massive social change in the united state?
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

<h2>Brainiest me</h2>

Explanation:

The Roaring Twenties was a period in the history of dramatic social and political change. For the first time, more Americans lived in cities than on farms. The nation’s total wealth more than doubled between 1920 and 1929, and this economic growth swept many Americans into an affluent but unfamiliar “consumer society.” People from coast to coast bought the same goods (thanks to nationwide advertising and the spread of chain stores), listened to the same music, did the same dances, and even used the same slang! Many Americans were uncomfortable with this new, urban, sometimes racy “mass culture;” in fact, for many–even most–people in the United States, the 1920s brought more conflict than celebration. However, for a small handful of young people in the nation’s big cities, the 1920s were roaring indeed.
