Cuba had been a country of interest for Americans for many years
prior to the 1890s. Because it was only 90 miles from the tip of
Florida, many Americans believed it to be a natural extension of the US.
During the 1890s it became a profitable source of trade for American
businessmen. After the Cuban revolt against Spain ended the Americans
poured investments over $50 million into Cuba and became the biggest
purchaser of Cuban sugar. The US removed tariffs making sugar cheap for Americans to buy. Both the US and the Cuban economies benefited and the trade increased to $100 million. The depression of 1893, however, had a negative effect on both economies. <span>

The correct answer is C. The existence of racially prejudiced attitudes found in areas of the United States.
Racially prejudice attitudes were really common and the Civil Rights movement helped to reduce them. This can be seen in:
- racial segregation on public transportation - fought by the Civil Rights Movement with the Montgomery Bus Boycott
- discriminatory economic policies in Alabama City - fought by the Civil Rights Movement with the Birmingham Campaign.
- lack of voting rights - fought by the Civil Right Movement on many marches, especially the Bloody Sunday
