Abstract
During and due to the war economy, the American factories had been very active. They bustled with triple shifts. The US had eventually absorbed one of the most severe attacks launched on its values. However the role of the family and women within, it highlighted the uncertainties facing the American society. 6 million women had taken jobs during the war and they wished to carry on working. As one worker put it, "war jobs have uncovered unsuspected abilities in the American women. Why lose all these abilities because of the belief that woman's place is at home? For some it is, for others it is not". This issue stimulated the Black Americans as they moved from the countryside to assembly lines. They found new opportunities and new reasons to be angry and to insist on Freedom, especially as they were confronted with new sorts of jobs related to city life.
