History
1 answer:
alexgriva [62]3 years ago

Answer:

Women had to compulsorily work for survival, were paid less, their unions were not strong. Black women suffered more of each issue.

Explanation:

Great Depression was the period of low economic activity, high unemployment, low income levels.

Austerity referred to withdrawal of social welfare expenditure plans by government.

Both these coupled up factors aggravated the situation.

Although women were initiating workforce participation by 1930s.

  • Many women now had to urgently seek or join jobs, as men bread-earners had lost their jobs.
  • Women were paid less, but were majorly in less volatile jobs (teaching, nursing etc)
  • The battle for equal, decent wage got more difficult for women in this scenario
  • Women labour unions were formed, but they were less effective & impactful in influencing rules.
  • With white women entering labour force, struggle of black women in all the above aspects became even much worse.

Describe the options available to circuit court judges once they have heard an appellate case.
daser333 [38]
Write In Your Own Words...
District courts have original jurisdiction over cases involving federal laws (including maritime, patent, and copyright law). That is, they serve as the venues in which jury trials are executed. US courts of appeals are forums in which decisions made in district courts may be appealed or considered again. This does not mean that another trial will occur at the appellate court. Circuit courts consider any possible mistakes or misinterpretations of the law made by the district court judges. In a sense, circuit courts merely serve as checks on the performance of district court judges.
