4 0

Answer:

Because at the time, the American army was still segregated, and African Americans were discriminated in the army, even if they provided the same service for the country during the war against Germany and Japan.

Fortunately for African Americans, the army was desegregated after the war, and in the following decades, the Civil Rights Movement would lead to desegregation in most public and private places across the country, especially in the South.

Decide whether each item is a benefit or cost of economic globalization.
emmainna [20.7K]
access to a larger market
This is a benefit of economic globalization since it will open up a wide range of national, regional, and a lot of other markets in which resources, goods, and services as well as information are free-flowing. Every market will therefore have access to the products of various other markets in the whole world.

loss of jobs in developed countries
Economic globalization has led to an improvement in the developing countries. Unfortunately, this had a negative effect on the jobs already available in the developed countries since the decrease of poverty in other developing countries would cause some immigrants to leave their jobs in the developed countries to go back to their homelands, where significant improvement is already seen.

This is therefore a cost of economic globalization.

depletion of natural resources
Economic globalization would encourage markets to produce a lot more compared to the usual situation since they can export their resources to other markets in various places of the world. This would then lead to some markets specializing based on what they have, causing them to utilize their natural resources more frequently. 

Depletion of natural resources is therefore a cost of economic globalization.

increase in production of goods
Because of the free-flowing marketplace of goods and services brought by economic globalization, most markets would see a significant increase in the demand of their products. This will lead them to increase their production to meet that demand. Since they can freely export these goods, increasing the production would yield them more profit than usual, thus this will be a benefit of economic globalization.

Describe the experiences of immigrants to the united states in the late 1800s. Explain how immigrants contributed to the nation’
Romashka [77]
<span>The history of immigration to the United States is a continuing story of peoples from more populated continents, particularly Europe and also Africa and Asia, crossing oceans to the new land. Historians do not treat the first indigenous settlers as immigrants. Starting around 1600 British and other Europeans settled primarily on the east coast. Later Africans were brought as slaves. During the nation's history, the growing country experienced successive waves of immigration which rose and fell over time, particularly from Western Europe, with the cost of transoceanic transportation sometimes paid by travelers becoming indentured servants after their arrival in the New World. At other times, immigration rules became more restrictive. With the ending of numerical restrictions in 1965 and the advent of cheap air travel immigration has increased from Asia and Latin America, much of the latter "illegal." Attitudes toward immigrants have cycled back and forth between favorable and hostile since the 1790s. </span>
