1. what changes did
andrew mellon make
as secretary of the
treasury?

Andrew Mellon reduced taxes, increased revenue and managed to lower the state's debt to Europe.

Explanation:

Andrew Mellon was secretary of the treasure, between 1921-1932. His policies were to reduce the tax rates to strengthen the collection of the State (he said that before high taxes, investors preferred to evade them).

He lowered income tax rates (capital tax) and kept it progressive, helping the middle and lower classes.

These policies will help increase state revenue and lower public debt to Europe

Hope it helps!

booker t. washington was an educator who established the tuskegee institute. washington argued that african americans should learn trades that would offer them the opportunity to be progressive citizens. instead of fighting against discrimination, washington argued that african americans should use their education and knowledge to become self-sufficient in american society and not in competition with white americans.

w.e.b du bois was the founder of the niagara movement and later the naacp, du bois disagreed with washington. he argued that african americans should consistently fight for racial equality.

ida b. wells was a journalist who wrote about the horrors of lynching in the south. wells work could be considered muckraking as it led to the development of the anti-lynching campaign.

there are approximately 11 million illegal immigrants living in the united states.

the argument to restrict immigration is based on the perspective of protecting the safety and employment of the american people. president trump proposes to create a wall on the border with mexico, where there is the largest influx of illegal immigrants into the country.

the liberal perspective, however, is based on the argument that the us was founded by immigrants who came to build a better life with their families. in this sense, there is a special concern with the definitive legalization of "dreamers", young people who have arrived in the country as children. another important point is the concern not to cause traumas with the separation of relatives. making immigration more open would also be a good point to stimulate diversity in the us.
