Answer:

Although the women and slaves helped during the time of war, they were still neglected rights. After the war women went back to being treated the same way. They lacked voting rights, real jobs, they were unable to own land, and still could not divorce. Even though the Northwest Ordinance was established, it did not completely protect slaves in the Northwest. Africans in the North were still sold to slavery in the south, if a slave was caught running away they were sent back to their owner. Some Africans were sold to more labor.
