Answer 1

C

Answer 2

They should discuss the political ramifications, including the divisions within the Democratic Party, of his decision. Why was Truman willing to risk a split in his own party, especially with a difficult election looming? Also, students should describe the atmosphere surrounding civil rights following World War II and be able to explain why the issue was taking on greater importance. Students should also consider the actions that Truman did take and assess how valuable his efforts were to the civil rights movement. Ask students to determine to what extent Truman felt constrained by politics and if his efforts were as aggressive as they could have been.
