Real-life Rosie the Riveters worked the lines in New Jersey's factories while others sold war bonds, planted victory gardens, and conserved materials for the war effort. Thousands more served as nurses and in branches of the armed forces like the Women’s Army Corps and the U.S. Navy’s Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Service. African American women fought a double war: one against the nation’s enemies and another against discrimination.
