It was called the Harlem Renaissance.
Britain had an entire empire with the largest navy in the world as well as many well armed troops at its disposal. America had:

Jobs of all kinds were opened up for women during the Gilded/Industrial age from 1870-1900. Employment for women went from 2.6 million jobs to around 8.7 million jobs. In the late 11880's, clerical jobs were mostly held by men, with woman coming out around 4%, but by 1920, it skyrocketed to 50%, equal among both genders, and only continued to rise in the coming years. Women with working husbands could be stay at home mothers, but those in the poor, women and children as young as 8 years of age must work. A sort of slavery came about for children, who were often thought of less human and more like tools. Child labor laws did not come into full affect until the progressive era.
Women were not paid equally because they were thought of inferior to men at the time, and often, wages were on a significantly lower level. Although it is better today, there is still bias in the current workforce. Some women's unions for better pay and better workplace safety existed, but most were ignored. As for children, by the very late 19th century, children between 10 and 15 made up 1/5th of the entire American workforce.
