History

The  United States and its allies worried that if Vietnam fell to the communists, other countries in Southeast Asia would follow.  This was known as "domino theory" -- that the spread of communism in Vietnam would result in other countries in the region falling like dominoes to the influence of communism.  

President Dwight Eisenhower is the one who initiated the use of the term "domino theory."  In a speech he gave in April, 1954, Eisenhower warned that if French Indochina fell to communism, it very likely could cause a domino  effect in Southeast Asia.  French Indochina is what the region of Vietnam was called during the days of French colonialism there.  The movement against French colonial control was led by Vietnamese nationalist who also happened to be communists.  The Vietamese nationalist / communist movement was led by HoChi Minh.

Explanation:

Kate Chopin was an American author who lived from 1850 to 1904. Her stories were often controversial due to their feminist take and daring female characters.

In "Story of an Hour," a misunderstanding leads Louise Mallard to a revelation. Her sister and a friend let her know that her husband has died in a train accident. However, instead of feeling sad, Louise realizes she is finally her own woman. She does not have to ask anything or justify herself to her husband. She can do whatever she wants. But, in the end, her husband appears at home, very much alive. Louise ends up dying due to a heart condition she has.

NOTE: I used an asterisk (*) where the symbol for "at" on tweets should have been. Brainly wouldn't let me post the answer otherwise.

Describe the values of 1950s popular culture and subculture that arose in opposition.
mash [69]

In 1950s, popular cultures spread due to television and print media de-emphasizing women and other minorities. Idealized white people were presented with little (if any) allusion to diversity, poverty or conflicts (such as the Civil Rights Movement). Material values and compliance were things criticized by the counterculture; literature, the Beat movement and music (rock 'n' roll) came into conflict with the "tidy suburban view of life".
