Read the quote by President George W. Bush, honoring the Tuskegee Airmen in 2007.

These men in our presence felt a special sense of urgency. They were fighting two wars: One was in Europe, and the

other took place in the hearts and minds of our citizens. That's why we're here. The white commander of the Tuskegee

airfield was once asked—with all seriousness-how do African Americans fly?-reflecting the ignorance of the times,

they said, how do African Americans fly? He said, "Oh, they fly just like everybody else flies-stick and rudder.

What were the "two wars" that were fought by the Tuskegee Airmen during World War II?

the wars against Germany in Europe and Japan in the Pacific

the wars to maintain superiority in the air and with naval forces at sea

the wars against discrimination at home and against the axis powers

the wars to mobilize the homefront and to liberate allies in other countries

Answers

Answer 1

The correct answer is C. The wars against discrimination at home and against the axis powers

Explanation:

In the excerpt presented, President George W. Bush refers to the Tuskeegee Airmen, who were mainly African American pilots that fought for the U.S. during the Second World War. About this Bush mentions "They were fighting two wars: One was in Europe and the  other took place in the hearts and minds of our citizens".

About this it can be inferred, the first war was the Second World War in which the United States belonged to the Allies and fought against the Axis, which included countries such as Germany, Japan, and Italy because this was the main war in which these pilots participated. Besides this, the second war Bush mentions is likely the war and conflict due to discrimination in the U.S. because back then African Americans were still considered inferior by white citizens; this is supported by the words of Bush as he tells an anecdote in which the white commander was asked "how do African Americans fly?", which shows the discrimination through the pilots just because they were African Americans.

- What is the difference between seasonal unemployment and structural unemployment?
Seasonal unemployment is generally among low-paid workers, while structural unemployment is among the highly paid.
Seasonal unemployment is rare in a modern society, while structural unemployment is not.
Seasonal unemployment occurs only in the summer, while structural unemployment can occur all year round.
Seasonal unemployment is due to changes in production schedules; structural unemployment is because people lack skills.

Answers

Answer:

Seasonal unemployment is due to changes in production schedules; structural unemployment is because people lack skills.

Explanation:

Seasonal unemployment refers to the type of unemployment that takes place during specific seasons of the year when demand for certain types of work is falling. This form of unemployment is quite typical in the agricultural sector, where many peasants depend on the weather to produce a certain crop.

Structural unemployment is triggered when the abilities or skill sets of the workers do not meet the needs of the employers. For example, a dramatic drop in a specific commodity's demand will result in structural unemployment because, with that commodity's demand decreasing, it would take less labor to manufacture that commodity.

A bar graph titled Number of Deaths in U S Mining Industry. The x-axis is labeled from 1910 to 1970 by decades. The y-axis is labeled from 0 to 30,000. The 1910's had 25,000 deaths. The 1920's had under 25,000 deaths. The 1930's and 40's had over 10,000 deaths. The 1950's had 5,000 deaths. The 1960's and 70's had under 5,000 deaths.

1. What made the war so tough for American soldiers?

2. How was the Tet offensive a turning point in the war?

Answers

1: Why the vietnam war was so hard to fight. The war in Vietnam was difficult to fight due to the fact that the terrain was so harsh that it made the americans struggle to survive. There were 58,209 American deaths in the Vietnam war. 10,875 of them were not combat related.

2: Although a military loss, the Tet Offensive was a stunning propaganda victory for the communists. In fact, it is often credited with turning the war in their favor. The South Vietnamese lost morale as Viet Cong guerrillas infiltrated rural areas formerly held by the government.

Answer:

Unfortunately, there was no commitment to the war, most of the soldiers had no idea why they were fighting, and there was a lot of controversy and confusion over the U.S. involvement in Vietnam that got widespread anti-war protests within the U.S.  It was difficult for the soldier to control and predict the events occurring around him because of how dark, mysterious and unfamiliar the terrain was.  During the war, the soldier often felt that all was hopeless, and nothing or nobody could be counted on to provide a sense of continuity necessary to a feeling of integration or conceitedness.

Answers

Answer:

Modifications in social structure

Developments in technology and organization reshaped social structure. A recognizable peasantry continued to exist in western Europe, but it increasingly had to adapt to new methods. In many areas (most notably, the Netherlands and Denmark) a cooperative movement spread to allow peasants to market dairy goods and other specialties to the growing urban areas without abandoning individual landownership. Many peasants began to achieve new levels of education and to adopt innovations such as new crops, better seeds, and fertilizers; they also began to innovate politically, learning to press governments to protect their agricultural interests.
