“In what ways did WWI impact or change life in US society?”
rewona [7]

Explanation:

Women, most of whom never worked outside the home, were in high demand to work at all types of factories and businesses. Nearly a million women were employed in jobs previously held by men.

Prior to the war, the women’s campaign for the right to vote fell on deaf ears. Afterward, even President Wilson urged Congress to pass the 19th amendment, which succeeded in 1920.

Future President Herbert Hoover was appointed the director of the newly created U.S. Food Administration. Hoover encouraged citizens to plant “victory gardens” or personal gardens. This is the genesis of the “urban gardens” we know today. Over 20 million gardens were planted and U.S. food consumption decreased by 15%, conserving food for the troops.

One of the largest shifts in population in the 20th century was the movement African Americans made from the south to be employed in northern factories. Ford Motor Co. was a leader in the employment of minorities.

The power of the federal government, and that of the President in particular, greatly expanded during the War, which has carried on to this day.

The medical field greatly advanced especially in the treatment of mental disorders, limb replacement, and plastic surgery. Many people trace the beginning of medical specialists to this period.

Volunteerism expanded. The Red Cross, Boy Scouts, and Girl Scouts enjoyed a growth in membership and interest in their collective efforts and groups.

The horrors of war ushered in “The Roaring ’20s,” with an-anything-goes attitude and a quest for fun, fashion, and frolicking. “How ya gonna keep ’em down on the farm after they’ve seen Paree” was a whimsical chorus to help explain the population shift from the farm to cities.

For the first time, middle-class Americans traveled overseas to visit countries and cities they came to know in the War. European tourism increased as Americans wanted to visit battlefields and grave sites.

Despite isolationist sentiments, after the War, the United States became a world leader in industry, economics, and trade. The world became more connected to each other which ushered in the beginning of what we call the “world economy.”

Was the United States justified in the dropping of the atomic bombs on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki?
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

I believe that the United States was and wasn't justified to drop the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki

Explanation:

It was justified because Japan realized a surprise attack at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii, after two hours of bombing, 18 U.S. ships were sunk or damaged, 188 U.S. aircraft were destroyed, and 2,403 people were killed, all of this happened while the U.S. and Japan were officially engaging in diplomatic negotiations for possible peace in Asia.

It wasn't justified because the two bombings killed between 129,000 and 226,000 people.

Why did the Fugitive Slave Act anger Northerners? a) It contradicted the Missouri Compromise. b) It increased federal interventi
Papessa [141]

The answer is <u>b) It increased federal intervention in the affairs of independent states.</u>

By the time these federal Acts were enacted in the U.S., several Northern states had already abolished slavery but it was legal in the Southern states. The Fugitive Slave Acts of 1793 and 1850 allowed for the capture and return of runaway slaves within the territory of the United States, aiming to prevent that the Northern states would become safe havens for runaway slaves.

The last act was more rigid in their provision and stated more regulation, including the guarantee of harsher punishments for anyone interfering in runaways slave's capture, the right of slave owners and their “agents” to search for escaped slaves within the borders of free states and compelled citizens to assist in their capture as well. It also denied slaves the right to a jury trial, among others.

The Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 implied much government's intervention in the state's affairs, and this angered most northern states. They responded by intentionally neglecting the law or creating acts that nullified or that protected black people, the so-called "personal liberty laws", and by making great efforts to assist runaway slaves, among others.
