The New Deal had little positive, if none at all, impact on women and minorities. The New Deal allowed for unequal wages and none of the relief programs targeted women, who were often left behind with children by their husbands.

The minorities, such as African Americans and Mexican immigrants, suffered from the lack of assistance provided for them; because the conservative Democrats refused to support any New Deal legislation that aided the non-white minorities, FDR was forced to neglect such issues to pass his alphabet programs.
