The Great Depression
The Great Depression was maybe the hardest thing that happen to women's and there family's.
During the depression years of the 1930s there was great pressure on everyone to bring in income. It was especially difficult for women.
In many ways. However, the primary response is that the Great Depression negatively affected women's rights. One way that it did this was by decreasing the number of available jobs.
During the Great Depression families had a hard time getting by, especially during times of drought and bad harvests There was a lady that would have to work long hours just to make sure her family got by. Sometimes women even worked outside the home to help make ends meet which made for persecution because some people thought that women were taking jobs away from men. Women had long hours away from and at home. They had to keep an upbeat attitude despite their circumstances so that it wouldn't affect their whole family, especially their children.
The Great Depression was hard on everyone but families a lot of times moved in with each other and banded together to help things run more smoothly. sometimes women's depended on other women to help take care of their children and trade things they had grown in their gardens.
once world war 2 starts all the things will turn around & women's ones again enter the workforce in extremely large numbers I can image how heard was for the women's and their family's.
With the Great Depression of the 1930s, followed by World War II, many women went
seeking jobs outside the home. Women were needed to support their families
financially, but with the return of men from the war, and an ever-increasing
competitive job market, women became frustrated once again with their role in
society.
While women’s lives have improved enormously in many ways, especially in the West,
women still make up 70 per cent of the world’s poorest people and two-thirds of
those who cannot read and write. And there is a danger that some of the rights
they have won are slipping away.
