Good morning!
The South’s white majority switched to the Republican Party.
As it was a measure initiated by the Democrats, the blacks began to vote in mass in that party. Southern whites, then, switched their membership from the Democrats to the Republicans.

<em><u>A result of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 was that the South’s white majority switched to the Republican Party. </u></em>

Further Explanations:

Voting Right act of United States was signed by President “Lyndon B. Johnson” on 6th August 1965 during civil rights movement.  The act was ratified by the “Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments” securing the voting rights of the minorities. The act holds many provisions to regulate voting and prohibited any state and local government from applying any voting law increasing racial or lingual discrimination. It also enacted lingual provision to the electorates by providing them bilingual ballot.

After its enforcement, a gradual decrease in racial bigotry was recorded. Around two hundred thousand African Americans got registered for voting. Though it was initiated by Democratic Party and the White American was against it, the party became unpopular among the Whites citizens. The Whites got aligned to the Republicans while the Black American got aligned towards the Republicans.

What were the most likely reasons that US leaders decided to develop the atomic bomb? Select two options.
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

They believed that defeating Japan with regular weapons would be too costly in time and lives.

They wanted to be viewed by other nations as the most powerful nation in the world.

Explanation:

The U.S. leaders decided to develop atomic weapons as a response to the threat from the Nazis in Germany who were said to have been developing such kinds of weapon. However, under Harry Truman as the President, the U.S. actually dropped the bomb over Japan twice<em> in order to defeat them in a speedy manner. </em>This was also done <u><em>in order to prevent having many American casualties </em></u>if they ever invaded.

It is also said that they developed the atomic bomb during the "Cold War." An "arm race" happened whereby nations, especially the U.S. and the Soviet Union, tried to become more superior over the other by<em> developing the best military weapons</em>. When the Soviet tested their atomic bomb, the U.S. also announced that they'd be making an even better atomic bomb. This situation clearly showed how the Americans wanted to be viewed as <em>the most powerful nation in the world.</em>
