Hello there! The cotton gin would be your answer :)

During the pre-civil war era, cotton was extremely hard for slaves to do by hand, and slowed down production of cotton. This machine, created by Eli Whitney and helped speed the process of collecting cotton which dramatically increased the profit of Southern plantations.

I hope this helped! If you have any more questions just comment or message me :) I can give a more in-depth lesson about the effects of the cotton gin if you'd wish. Good luck with school!

Here's a picture showing how the cotton gin works (found on slideshare.net)

The Pregnancy Discrimination Act of 1978. has<u> banned any discrimination in the process of hiring, paying, and firing of women on the basis of pregnancy or childbirth</u>. This also includes health benefits and sick leave for women who faced abortion.

<u>It can be concluded that all of these regulations and acts have helped women’s fight for equality and aided the status of women in US society.</u>
