Describe the differences that World War I made in the lives of American women and African Americans

What will be an ideal response?


Women finally got the right to vote and volunteered for services that would aid the war effort. But women did not find many jobs even in the wartime economy, and those who did, lost them when the war was over. African Americans migrated to the North to get jobs in war industries, and they volunteered or were drafted into military service. Those who joined the Great Migration to the North were often victims of racial prejudice and violence.
