The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Remote Pacific islands like Guam and Samoa provide value and many benefits to the United States.

These Pacific islands are places that have natural resources and raw materials that can be used in the United States by big companies, manufacturers, and industries to process raw materials and produce goods.

Another positive thing of owning a Pacific island is that the US can have a navy base there, as the base in Guam that is located in Apra Harbor. This base is home of Commander Submarine Squadron 15.

Another good reason for having touristic islands is that they can serve as a touristic place where companies can build hotel, resorts, and attractions that generate money.

How does South America‘s location over the equator affect its overall climate
viva [34]

Answer:

South America extends as far south of the equator as the Alaska panhandle does north. Yes, they have glaciers down there and even a respectable ice cap. Along the Equator itself you have the Amazon rain forest and Volcan Cayambe, the only place on earth where there is permanent snow on the Equator. Let me suggest you take some geography courses so you can know what the world is really like instead of saying stereotypical things like South America is like [something] because “it’s on the equator.”

Describe the opinions of W.E.B Du Bois and Booker T Washington regarding the pursuit of equal rights. How are they the same and
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer and Explanation:

W.E.B Du Bois and Booker T Washington were two great black thinkers whose main similarity was the same desire to improve the lives of blacks in such a racist and oppressive country. However, the ways in which they thought they could promote this improvement was very different, which led to debates and certain ideological frictions between them.

Washington said that blacks should accept the discrimination they experienced and not fight against the concept of servitude and submission that accompanied them, for a certain period of time. During that time, blacks should practice patience and solidarity among their fellowmen and work to accumulate capital and material goods for themselves. This would leave them in an equal situation in relation to whites, who could see them as worthy, but this would make them superior to whites because they had well-trained and encouraged solidarity and patience.

Du Bois abhorred this type of approach, because he believed that it stimulated white supremacy and allowed more abuse to be issued to the black population. For Du Bois, blacks would only achieve equality through the political power they needed to take for themselves. He affirmed that for that, a social change would be necessary that would be promoted by the stimulus of the study and the academic and superior formation of young blacks, who, once formed would have all the political, economic and social framework to promote changes in society.
