Minorities and women were allowed into the workforce leading to rights movements after the war.


The war took white, men out of the workforce to fight. This allowed for minorities and women to take those jobs. By gaining access to employment, these groups enjoyed more freedom than experienced before World War II.


Following the war, when white men came back to claim their jobs, those employed during the war refused to take a backseat to white men. Minorities fought for rights to equal education, the end of segregation, and the creation of laws protecting their civil rights. Women also fought for the right to access education and professions as well as the right to birth control.

How did the end of World War One effect businesses and the economy?
krok68 [10]
The war ended on November 11, 1918, and America's economic boom quickly faded. Factories began to ramp down production lines in the summer of 1918, leading to job losses and fewer opportunities for returning soldiers. This led to a short recession in 1918–19, followed by a stronger one in 1920–21
