President Truman's "Fair Deal" proposed that Congress work on:

- Expanding Social Security

- Increase minimum wage from 40 to 75 cents an hour

- Implementing anti-discrimination policies in employment

- Addressing civil rights issues

- Expanding public housing

- Providing federal aid to education

- Establishing national health insurance

There were more proposals as well, but most of the proposals (including those noted above) did not gain any traction with Congress.  Congress did extend Social Security coverage and raise the benefits, and also did raise the minimum wage.  But other proposals did not go into effect.

How did African Americans’ experiences in Europe differ from their
marishachu [46]

Answer:

Differences between African Americans and European Americans were examined to find how ethnic identity salience was enacted in interethnic conversations, A sample of 126 African Americans and 78 European Americans was recruited from the community using a snowball sampling method. First, different factor structures for the two groups indicated that African Americans conceptualize sociocultural and political identity as separate constructs while European Americans express a singular and social definition of ethnic identity and experience less identity salience than African Americans. Secondly, although our sample is small, those who used the label “African American” expressed greater political ethnic identity salience than those who used the label “Black”. This finding is consistent with others' research indicating a continuing trend toward a positive political posture for African Americans. Third, ethnic identity was found to be negatively related to interethnic communication satisfaction for European Americans. Stronger European American ethnic identity was related to less satisfying interethnic conversational outcomes in less intimate relationships. Ethnic identity salience showed no significant relationship to interethnic conversational outcomes for European Americans communicating with friends nor for African Americans no matter the relational distance.

balu736 [363]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

The First inaugural address was delivered on Monday, March 4, 1861, as part of his taking of the oath of office for his first term as the President of the United States in which he was asking for the preservation of the Union during a perilous time, he called for compromise from both his supporter in the NORTH and without further alienating the South but making his point known (“<em>In your hands, my dissatisfied fellow countrymen, and not in mine, is the momentous issue of civil war</em>)He likewise declared secession to be wrong ;promised not to interfere with the institution of slavery where it existed.

However,Abraham Lincoln has a dispassionate for slavery,rejecting the South's defense of slavery; this stand eventually lead to the outbreak of the American Civil War.

At the time of Lincoln’s second inaugural address, the civil war is also most coming to an end and the Union’s victory over the South was imminent. Because of this the second speech was based on resolution,also reaffirming a faith in God's will and healing a once-divided nation
