In the 1970s, the percentage of women in the workforce in the United States was around 43%. This era marked a significant increase in women participating in the labor force compared to previous decades.
Some factors that have contributed to the rising share of women in the US paid labor force include increased educational attainment among women, changing societal norms and attitudes towards women working, the need for dual incomes to support families, legal protections against workplace discrimination, and advancements in technology that have created more job opportunities for women.
In sharecropping agreements, women were often expected to contribute to the labor on the farm alongside men. They were responsible for tasks such as planting, weeding, and harvesting crops, as well as domestic duties in the household.

During World War 1, the labor force underwent significant changes. Many men left their jobs to join the military, resulting in a shortage of workers. This led to an increase in opportunities for women and minorities in industries previously dominated by men. Women took on jobs in factories and other industries, demonstrating their capabilities and paving the way for future advancements in women's rights and gender equality.
