The Second New Deal

Question 13 • RMA FL-2100310-United States History Semester 2

Which are ways that the New Deal affected marginalized communities? Choose two correct answers.

Answer
A
Often Black workers were assigned harder tasks than White workers.
B
Additional aid was provided to people if they were Black or Latino.
C
Most agricultural workers received aid and were eligible for other programs.
D
Programs lacked support for women, particularly Black women.

Explanation

Some New Deal programs reinforced racial discrimination: Black workers were often assigned harder work than White workers. Women also received limited support, with Black women facing especially significant barriers. B is incorrect because aid was not generally increased simply because someone was Black or Latino; C is incorrect because many agricultural workers were excluded from important New Deal programs.
