To what extent did the homefront experience during World War II expand the freedoms and opportunities available to Americans?

With the draft pulling manpower out of much needed factories, those positions had to be filled with people that were normally turned away

Explanation:

Due to drafts pulling mostly white males from much needed assembly lines and factories it opened up those positions to those normally turned away such as Females and African Americans.  This propelled Female social issues and Black Equality movements after the war when those who worked during the war, refused to return to their social roles they had filled before the war.
