Answer:

I agree with what Eric Foner wrote (“the language with which World War II was fought helped to lay the foundation for postwar ideals of human rights that extend to all mankind”) because after World War II was over, there was a greater reaction and resistance to dictators, dictatorial parts of constitutions in democratic governments like the United States, and dictatorial governments in many parts of the world. Many people and races came to realize the injustice and unfairness that resulted from dictatorship and segregation; this led to the increase in fights for human rights, even in the United States which was against the oppression of the Jews and other races of people during World War II. The cooperation of different races during the war helped inspire postwar ideals of human rights which didn’t immediately resolve the racial issues between whites and blacks; however, it created civil rights which became more established later on, especially in the past few decades.
