Answer:

Women in World War II took on a variety of roles. Some women embraced traditional positions as caretakers and homemakers. Others explored new opportunities, from which women had been previously excluded.Nearly 19 million American women held jobs during World War II, out of which around 6 million entered the labor force as new female workers.Women worked in the war industries, in factories, and on farms. They drove trucks, provided logistic support for soldiers, and entered professional areas of work that were previously the domain of men. They enlisted as nurses serving on the front lines, and there was a great increase in the number of women serving for the military. Women also joined the federal government and served in community organizations in massive numbers.Although many women took on male dominated trades during World War II, they were expected to return to housework after men returned from the war.

The overall percentage of women working fell from 36 percent to 28 percent in 1947.Around 350,000 American women served in the U.S. military during World War II.The wartime and postwar economic prosperity, as well as the return of many female workers to the domestic sphere, resulted in the dramatic increase of birth rates in the postwar period.

When did slavery begin in Texas?
Nana76 [90]

Texas submitted its statehood application only 16 years before the Civil War, and it was admitted to the Union in 1845 as a slave state.

Who introduced slavery to Texas?

  • By 1860, there were 182,566 more people. White families from the south of the United States brought the majority of the slaves to Texas. Some slaves were acquired through the New Orleans-based domestic slave trade.
  • The final American state where slaves were used as property was Texas. The "Peculiar Institution," as Southerners referred to it, expanded throughout the eastern two-fifths of the state in the less than fifty years between 1821 and 1865, covering a region that was almost as big as Alabama and Mississippi put together.
  • When Texas went through its revolution in 1836, there were only about 5,000 slaves; but, by the time the state was annexed into the United States in 1845, there were 30,000 slaves. Statehood and Slavery (1845–1865): Texas submitted its statehood application in 1845, just 16 years before the Civil War, and was admitted to the Union as a slave state.
