Explanation:

The Profile of Courage Award is a private award for the appreciation of shows of bravery which is awarded to the people who risked their lives or careers for the national interest.  Mitch Landrieu was elected mayor of New Orleans and received this award in 2018 for his leadership in eliminating four Confederate statues in New Orleans.

How did the mexican-american war lead to greater sectionalism within the united states government?
gogolik [260]

There was great tension between pro-slavery and anti-slavery representatives over how new territories won would handle the issue of slavery.

The Mexican-American War and the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, forced onto the remnant Mexican government,  drew some criticism in the U.S. for their casualties, monetary cost, and heavy-handedness. Furthermore, the question of how to treat the new acquisitions also intensified the debate over slavery and in many ways inflamed it, as potential westward expansion of the institution took an increasingly central and heated theme in national debates preceding the American Civil War.

How did the us government promote the war at home
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

Providing supplies to American and Allied troops fighting the war in Europe, Africa, and the Pacific required the efforts of all Americans. At home, citizens contributed to the war effort by rationing consumer goods, recycling materials, purchasing war bonds, and working in war industries. At home, buying war bonds or savings stamps was probably the most common way to support the war. When people bought a bond or a savings stamp, they were lending money to the government. Their money would be paid back with interest after the war
