1950s American automobile culture had an enduring influence on the culture of the United States, as reflected in:

(1) Suburbanization since the increasing availability of cars to get higher speeds, along with the United States' investment in infrastructure such as highways and bridges, made possible people to live beyond the confines of major cities, and instead commute to and from work.

(2) Drive-in restaurant as more Americans began driving cars, entirely new categories of businesses came into being to allow them to enjoy their products and services without having to leave their cars, such as the drive-in restaurant, and later the drive-through window.

(3) Drive-in movies in the drive-in theaters, which are a form of cinema structure consisting of a large outdoor movie screen, a projection booth, a concession stand and a large parking area for automobiles. In such drive-in theater people view the movie from the comfort of their cars and listen via an electric speaker placed at each parking spot.

Dimas [21]

Answer:

The Zimmerman Telegram was a message from Germany to Mexico where Germany tried to make an alliance with Mexico in case the U.S joined the war. Germany said that they would let Mexico have their old territory back, which included Texas. This upset many Texans because they didn't want to go back to be under Mexico's control because they had taken a lot of time to gain Independence, and were happy with their lives in America.

To what does gary nash ascribe the growth of individualism in eighteenth-century america?

LuckyWell [14K]

To Gary Nash, individualism, became a great help to the slavery of African Americans, since as a historian, this was his focus. While it has always been America's stance that God created all men equal, this did not directly apply to the slaves as an argument by Nash.
