States and racism declined. *
A. True
B. False
Answer:
The experiences of African American soldiers during World War II inspired many of them to agitate for civil rights when they returned to civilian life. Even though black soldiers faced discrimination from within the American military, they had the opportunity to observe societies where Jim Crow racism was not the law of the land.
Black soldiers hoped that their military service would serve as a powerful claim to equal citizenship for African Americans. When they came home, however, they encountered fierce resistance from white supremacists determined to reassert the prewar racial order.
Many prominent civil rights activists were drawn from the ranks of veterans, including Brown v. Board of Education plaintiff Oliver Brown and NAACP field officers Medgar Evers and Amzie Moore. so false

How did the US.
Interpret the skirmish that
took place when General
Zachary Taylor led troops
into the disputed territory
near the Rio Grande?
Answer: As a Mexican declaration of war
Explanation:
After Texas defeated Mexico in a war of independence and became an independent state, the Texans claimed their border with Mexico to be territory around the Rio Grande. Mexico did not recognize this as they did not recognize Texas as an international state.
When the U.S. annexed Texas, this boundary was still disputed and so President Polk sent General Taylor to ensure that the boundary was secure. In a deliberate provocation, Taylor crossed into the disputed territory and the Mexicans saw this as an invasion and attacked the U.S. forces under Taylor.
This was interpreted by the U.S. as a declaration of war from Mexico and Congress responded by declaring war the next month.
