HE PUT AN END TO RACIAL SEGREGATION IN THE UNITED STATES ARMED FORCES

Harry S. Truman was committed to reduce racial discrimination against African Americans. In 1947, he presented a detailed ten-point agenda of civil rights reforms but due to the power of southern Congressmen, he was unable to implement any significant civil rights legislation. He thus resorted to executive actions. On July 26, 1948, President Truman issued Executive Order 9981, which abolished racial discrimination in the US Armed Forces. It set up the President’s Committee on Equality of Treatment and Opportunity which successfully oversaw racial integration of the US Armed Forces. Another 1948 Executive Order of Truman made it illegal to discriminate against persons applying for civil service positions based on race. On June 12, 1948, Truman also signed into law the Women’s Armed Services Integration Act which enabled women to serve as permanent, regular members of the armed forces.

Connect east Africa's geographic proximity to the Indian Ocean to its historic development how might the region have developed d
Alecsey [184]

The development of the East African coastal region was greatly influenced by it s excellent strategic position. It became a trading center where goods from three continents were passing by, and lots of money, as well as innovations and technologies were coming in this part of the continent.

If the situation was different, like suggests, if the region was an inland desert or mountainous area in Africa, than it was going to be a very backwards region in every aspect. The people would have steel been living in primitive tribal societies, and there's big possibility that they were going to practice a nomadic lifestyle as well. And those kind of conditions will not allow the formation of developed society, or great empire.
