Hey there!
To understand the Space Race, you must first understand the Cold War.
The Cold War wasn't really a War - in some views, it was just a competition. The US and the USSR were the largest superpowers the world had ever known - they had the most weapons, money, and power, ever. The US and the USSR were engaged in an arms race initially and were each racing to get the most nuclear weapons.
That was until the Soviet Union launched the Sputnik. The US could not let the USSR get control of space, and in 1969, launched the Apollo 11 to combat the USSR who had recently put the first man in space - by putting the first man on the Moon.
In my opinion, even though it was a competition, it was worth it. Think about it- would we have sent a man to the Moon afterward without all that pressure? Even nowadays, we would not have discovered what we already discovered without it and would not have sent any more rockets. Despite the cost, it has benefitted and will continue to benefit us in the long run.
Hope this helps!
Wright Mills meant “cheerful robots'' by the Americans were not exercising their right to freedom and just being like robots
<u>Explanation:</u>
Wright Mills was a sociologist and always stood for equality in the society and to improve the conditions of the society. In the year 1959, he stated the words of America people being cheerful robots and by stating this he meant that the people of the United States of America were being like robots who were only listening to the officials of the government.
They were not exercising their right to question the official. They were just simply listening to what the government was saying or doing for them or not questioning the employers. Freedom of choice was not being exercised.
The options of the question are, A) Reconstruction resulted in positive changes in all aspects of Southern black’s lifes, including politics, education, and escaping poverty.

E) Reconstruction affected blacks in creating an atmosphere in which Southerners felt that blacks would outpace them in education and economics.
The correct answer is C) Reconstruction afforded Blacks freedom and voting rights but also created an interracial struggle that often erupted in violence against blacks.
<em>The sentence that best describes how reconstruction affected Southern Blacks is “Reconstruction afforded Blacks freedom and voting rights but also created an interracial struggle that often erupted in violence against blacks.”
</em>
The opportunity to get an education was one of the most important aspects that Reconstruction gave the African Americans, as well as the right to vote. But the problem was that the differences the Union and the Confederated states had in the War were translated to politics. So, yes, Reconstruction afforded Blacks freedom and voting rights but also created an interracial struggle that often erupted in violence againts blacks. During the Reconstruction, the hostility against the African Americans was constant.
