Explanation:

Providing supplies to American and Allied troops fighting the war in Europe, Africa, and the Pacific required the efforts of all Americans. At home, citizens contributed to the war effort by rationing consumer goods, recycling materials, purchasing war bonds, and working in war industries.

Answer from: angelolucero146

During World War II, the civilian population of the United States, and other countries for that matter, was rationed to the bare necessities when it came to goods needed by the military. Rationed items included food as well as items made from materials used in the manufacture of military supplies, equipment and arms. Such things as clothing fabrics, shoes & other leather goods, metals, oil products and rubber were hard to obtain. When such goods were available, citizens could purchase them with a combination of cash and a specified amount of ration stamps, but as the stamps themselves were rationed and those allotted applied to numerous types of items, difficult choices sometimes had to be made.

Civilians also contributed to the war effort with the purchase of U.S. Government Defense Savings Bonds or "War Bonds." These were purchased at a discounted price and redeemed for full value at maturity. Those who could not afford the full price of a Bond could purchase them in incremental amounts by buying $.25 cent stamps at the Post Office and redeeming them for a Bond when the total amount was saved. Children were encouraged to save this way so stamps could also be purchased at school.

native american contribution: the patriots from britain learn how to hunt, fish, and introduce diversity within cultures.

african americans: indirectly introduced the idea of diversity to americans. africans coming to america because of slavery taught white americans that people come from different backgrounds and colors. it also built america's economic stability for a great period of time.

women: make america what it is today. there are some societies that are in the world currently that do not give women the same right we give women here in the united states. because women have rights here in the united states, other countries' citizens strive to come to america, especially women, since they have equal rights in the united states. this is important because america is seen and desired by many in the world.

children: children are our future. we learn from our elders and carry out things the same or differently learning from america's history. we continue tradition and change tradition if it is needed.
