Explanation:

Question 5

The Fair Employment Practices Committee (FEPC) was established by Executive Order 8002 to investigate complaints of discrimination based on race. The NAACP and CORE are civil - rights organizations that were already in existence before this executive order. The National Labor Union (NLU) was a labor organization from an earlier era.

Before Executive Order 8802, African Americans did not have equal access to employment opportunities as White Americans (so a is false). African Americans were not equally considered and hired (b is true). There is no evidence that African Americans did not want to be employed in industrial industries (c is false). African Americans, led by A. Philip Randolph, threatened to march on Washington to protest job discrimination, which led to the issuance of Executive Order 8802 (d is true).

During World War II, more women entered the workforce to fill in for men serving in the armed forces (c is true). Women worked in industrial factories, making bombs and airplanes used in the war (d is true). The amount of women employed outside the home increased during the war (a is false). After the war, many women were driven out of their jobs to make room for returning soldiers (b is false).

Answer:

d. The Fair Employment Practices Committee (FEPC)
