Women moved into these positions, working as mechanics, machines hands, weapon producers, welders, and just about every other industrial field producing materials for the war effort. There was a massive social push fir women to join the work force, it was a way they could support the war on the home front and more importantly do their duty to their country, despite the bans of women in active duty. It also drastically changed the social patterns for women. The push in women in the work force helped to spark the movement for women's rights, most importantly women's suffrage. As a result of women efforts in the war, congress began to recognize them as more equal to male citizens in 1919.

As the people of the United States watched World War 1 ignite across Europe, African American(A.A.) citizens saw an opportunity to win the respect of their white neighbors. At the time America was segregated, and A.A's were considered "second class citizens" at best. Even though it was apparent that the U.S. was going to war in Europe, "blacks" were turned away. When the war department realized we only had an army made up of 126,000 men, a draft was sent out requiring all men from the ages 21-31 to enlist. Even before the draft A.A's tried everything they could to contribute to show they're sense of patriotism. When ww1 broke out there were four black regiments starting of. The 9th, and 10th Cavalry and the 24th and 25th Infantry. The men in these units were considered heroes in their communities. Within one week of Wilson’s declaration of war, the War Department had to stop accepting black volunteers because the position for blacks were filled. More than 350,000 A.A's served in segregated units during World War 1, mostly as support troops. Several units saw action alongside French soldiers fighting against the Germans, and 171 African American's were awarded the French Legion of Honor.

The Committee on Public Information also known as the (CPI) at the time was an organization with one goal. That goal was to "promote the absolute cause of the United States". The main way it accomplished this was through the power of Propaganda. As said by a German Soldier that "Propaganda was more powerful than the Navy, and more dangerous than an Army". The CPI used things like patriotism, and unity, along with dehumanizing the enemy as a result of the fear of the actual enemy. Exaggerating the enemy made Americans grow hate towards the other countries fighting against the U.S. The CPI was very successful as it had more than 9 million people go to their public affairs and events. Eventually however the CPI had to stop it's operations when the Armistice of 1918 was signed. This committee showed just how much propaganda could do when used correctly.
