Answer to Question 1

Ideal Answer: The ideal answer should:
1. Note that Bunche embraced U.S. policy and the political system and became involved in state department and U.N. functions as an international U.S. ambassador on race relations, a mediator in the Middle East, and a recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize, the first African American to receive the award.
2. Explain that Du Bois remained an outsider and a fierce anti-imperialist who increasingly favored Pan-Africanism, black separatism, and fiercely opposed U.S. foreign policy in Africa during the Cold War.
3. Conclude that the men represented opposing strategies that reflected the diversity of viewpoints among the black intelligentsia regarding how to respond to black issues in an international and domestic context.

Answer to Question 2

Ideal Answer: The ideal answer should:
1. Define the Cold War as the battle-less fight between the U.S. and the Soviet Union over political and international control of other nations and resources from World War II to the collapse of the Soviet state in the early 1990s.
2. Note that immediately after World War II, the U.S. entered into a Cold War crisis regarding the division of Berlin, and the Soviet walling-off of part of the city under its control. The Berlin Wall would remain in place until 1991.
3. Note that the U.S. after World War II created a Berlin Airlift that rescued the western portion of the city from communist takeover and starvation.
4. Conclude that Truman and Joseph Stalin, the leader of the Soviet Union, continued to clash over the buildup of nuclear weapons and the creation of satellite states surrounding the Soviet Union.
