Question

which of these statements best summarizes how the new deal affected women and minorities? (2 points)
most minorities and women were covered under social security programs.
most new deal programs focused on farming instead of on women or minorities.
many new deal employment programs did not welcome women or minorities.
many minorities and women did not apply for positions as photojournalists.

Explanation:

The New Deal had some discriminatory aspects. Many of its employment programs were biased. Social Security initially excluded many minorities (e.g., agricultural and domestic workers). New Deal programs were more focused on white - male - dominated industries like construction (e.g., Civilian Conservation Corps was mostly for young white men). Women and minorities faced barriers in accessing New Deal employment opportunities.

Answer:

Many New Deal employment programs did not welcome women or minorities.
