Explanation:
exican American history, or the history of American residents of Mexican descent, largely begins after the annexation of Northern Mexico in 1848, when the nearly 80,000 Mexican citizens of California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, Colorado, and New Mexico became U.S. citizens.[1][2] Large-scale migration increased the U.S.’ Mexican population during the 1910s, as refugees fled the economic devastation and violence of Mexico’s high-casualty revolution and civil war.[3][4] Until the mid-20th century, most Mexican Americans lived within a few hundred miles of the border, although some resettled along rail lines from the Southwest into the Midwest.[5]
In the second half of the 20th century, Mexican Americans diffused throughout the U.S., especially into the Midwest and Southeast,[6][7] though the groups’ largest population centers remain in California and Texas.[8] During this period, Mexican-Americans campaigned for voting rights, educational and employment equity, ethnic equality, and economic and social advancement.[9] At the same time, however, many Mexican-Americans struggled with defining and maintaining their community's identity.
In the 1960s and 1970s, Chicano student organizations developed ideologies of Chicano nationalism, highlighting American discrimination against Mexican Americans and emphasizing the overarching failures of a culturally pluralistic society.[10] Calling themselves La Raza, Chicano activists sought to affirm Mexican Americans' racial distinctiveness and working-class status, create a pro-barrio movement, and assert that "brown is beautiful."[10] Urging against both ethnic assimilation and the mistreatment of low-wage workers, the Chicano Movement was the first large-scale mobilization of Mexican American activism in United States history.[11]

Answer:
James Oglethorpe's best argument for establishing a new colony in North America was that it would serve as protection for South Carolina.
Explanation:
The charter for the Province of Georgia was signed by George II on April 21, 1732 and it was granted to James Oglethorpe. The original purpose of the colony, according to Oglethorpe's plan, was as a penal colony for the settlement of people in prison becacuse of debts. The first prisoners arrived on February 12, 1733, a day that is still celebrated as Georgia Day. But the main geopolitical importance, that convinced the king to approve its creation, was that it would serve as a barrier for Spanish coming from Florida to reach the Carolinas, which were important crop producers for Britain.
