Question 14

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Option A: In the 1920s, men generally did not overwhelmingly welcome women to the workforce as gender roles were traditional, so A is incorrect.
• Option B: Men often viewed female workers as temporary and believed women belonged at home, which aligns with the gender norms of the time.
• Option C: Affirmative action - style systems for women's equal opportunities were not established in the 1920s, so C is incorrect.
• Option D: There were no anti - gender discrimination laws forcing men to allow women to work in the 1920s, so D is incorrect.

We evaluate each option:

• Option A: Birth control literature was not banned as "obscene" in a way that relates to women's health change in the 1920s. In fact, the 1920s saw more access to birth control information.
• Option B: There was no federal legislation giving women universal prenatal care in the 1920s.
• Option C: In the 1920s, birth control and other women's services became more readily available, which had a dramatic impact on women's health (e.g., family planning).
• Option D: Women were not barred from seeing doctors without their husbands in the 1920s.

We analyze each option:

• Option A: The Harlem Renaissance was not a government program to clean up Harlem.
• Option B: The Harlem Renaissance was a literary and cultural movement of middle - class, well - educated African Americans, celebrating African - American culture.
• Option C: It was not an uprising over unemployment; it was a cultural movement.
• Option D: Since B is correct, D is incorrect.
