Begin your answer by identifying the option you have chosen before you start writing your response.

Answers

Answer 1
Option 1:
a.) The US policy of containment stated that they would contain communism to prevent it from spreading into the other countries. This can be seen in the Korean and Vietnam War because the US fought to stop the others from spreading the idea of communism.
b.) The agreements that ended the Cuban Missile Crisis was the idea of open skies. Each country would disarm their nukes and other atomic weapons and allow the skies to be open for “surveillance.” This, however, ended up failing as a US pilot was shot down after “surveying” the skies. The interesting thing about this is that the US president was already getting rid of all the atomic bombs in the US, but told the SU that they were not going to disarm. This scared the SU into disarming.
c.) in my opinion, I believe this containment policy failed. The US was unable to stop communism as it spread to china. The US tried hard to stop this spread but ultimately failed.

Option 2:
a.) The causes of the Korean War include the fear of spreading communism. North Korea were communist and South Korea were not. Just as the US were going through imperialism, North Korea was too. This caused them to want to spread the idea of communism. They attacked South Korea, so the US lead the counter attack and pushed the North Korean forces back.
b.) Due to the lack of support, the US lost the Vietnam war. There were many factors that contributed to this, making the Americans question the real intentions of the war. For example, the Tet Offensive was a turning point in the war. The war was almost over, and Johnson told the public they were winning, but when the US attacked Vietnam on the Vietnamese New year, they lost support. There was a request for 200,000 more troops and the US people saw this as an act of desperation. There was also the My Lai massacre where innocent Vietnamese citizens- mostly children and women- were killed by US soldiers for no reason. This was all covered up by the US government. The war eventually ended when Kissinger negotiated with north Vietnam. The US ended the longest known war and the last few troops leave Vietnam in 1973. South Vietnam surrendered in 1976, which is considered a loss because the US unsuccessfully helped them.
c.) same as option 1

Compare and contrast the portrayal of imperialism in the political cartoon "The White Man’s Burden” and the Kipling poem of the same name.

Answers

Answer:

Kipling clearly liked the idea of enslaving the people of one Asian country on the other side of the world. The White Man's Burden was written with the sole intention of persuading Americans not to give freedom to the Philippines. On the other hand the political cartoon is obviously is showing that the white man is carrying all other races on his back, and that without him they wouldn't prosper.

Explanation:

This poem was once very popular. It was written in 1899, at a time when Filipinos were fighting for independence from the United States of America. Many readers today are probably not aware of the fact that the United States colonized the Philippines.

Poem is, by modern standards, extremely offensive. The author calls the population of another race "freshly caught, frowned upon people" who are "half devil and half children." He criticizes them for not accepting white people as "better than themselves" and those who "brought them to the light of day" by colonization.

"White man's burden" is a term synonymous with English imperialism and racism in the English-speaking world today.

Why was westward expansion and the creation of new states such a large issue for the abolition and slavery debate? In what ways did congress try to compromise?

Answers

Answer:

Westward expansion caused problems for the slavery debate because with the addition of every new state, the North (anti-slavery) and the South (pro-slavery) fought over whether the new state would become a slave state or a free state. Some compromises that were made from the south was allowing popular soveirgnty which was the ability for the new states to vote for themselves whether they wanted to be free or slave. And the North agreed to the fugitive slave act which allowed people from the south to come into the North to recapture escaped slaves.
