Answer:

Explanation:Du Bois, W. E. B. (23 February 1868–27 August 1963), African-American activist, historian, and sociologist, was born William Edward Burghardt Du Bois in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, the son of Mary Silvina Burghardt, a domestic worker, and Alfred Du Bois, a barber and itinerant laborer. In later life Du Bois made a close study of his family origins, weaving them rhetorically and conceptually—if not always accurately—into almost everything he wrote. Born in Haiti and descended from Bahamian mulatto slaves, Alfred Du Bois enlisted during the Civil War as a private in a New York regiment of the Union army but appears to have deserted shortly afterward. He also deserted the family less than two years after his son’s birth, leaving him to be reared by his mother and the extended Burghardt kin. Long resident in New England, the Burghardts descended from a freedman of Dutch slave origin who had fought briefly in the American Revolution. Under the care of his mother and her relatives, young Will Du Bois spent his entire childhood in that small western Massachusetts town, where probably fewer than two-score of the 4,000 inhabitants were African American. He received a classical, college preparatory education in Great Barrington’s racially integrated high school, from whence, in June 1884, he became the first African-American graduate. A precocious youth, Du Bois not only excelled in his high school studies but contributed numerous articles to two regional newspapers, the Springfield Republican and the black-owned New York Globe, then edited by T. Thomas Fortune.

How did the United States govern its new-found territories?
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer: Annexation, war, expansion, shopping.

Explanation:

These are the essential elements of United States expansion. For this purpose, the United States annexed Texas. In 1803 the united states purchased from Lusiana from the French. In 1819, Spain thus surrendered the United States to Florida, and later, on the western borders of the continental United States, New Spain was replaced by independent Mexico. The famine for the new land was the cause of increasing conflict with Native American tribes, as well as the violent expulsion of Native Americans to areas west of the Mississippi River in 1830. Part of the American colonists also began to settle in the area under simple Mexican rule, including the city of ​​present-day Texas.

In 1836, the settlers there started an insurgency against Mexico, and after a brief war, declared the independent Republic of Texas. In the case of Mexico, the accession of Texas to the United States led to the American-Mexican War (1846-1847). US forces defeated Mexico and forced it to hand over 42% of its territory, including California, to the Guadelupe Hidalgo Peace Treaty. On October 18, 1867, America bought Alaska from Russia and thus occupied this part of the country.
