This study by Bellou and Cardia analyzes how through the added-worker effect during the Great Depression there was a sharp increase in young women employment. It also highlights how these women joined the workforce and increased the employment rate in the short-run whilst supplementing the lost overall household income. The study is quite reputable and has been cited by many other studies regarding labor supply adjustments. This source complements our other sources and findings and thus further provides thorough analysis of the labor market and its inequalities. We use this source to establish the timeline of our project and how the labor market evolved during that time period.

This article by Gordon was published in American Quarterly in 1978 and thoroughly discusses the interaction between women artists, their newfound freedom at art institutions, and their inability to pursue such dreams.

The source comes from a very reputable scholarly journal that focuses on American studies and aspects of American culture, history, and politics. We will use this source to highlight the gender inequality seen in this sphere and use our feminist frameworks to critically analyze the aforementioned dichotomy.
