From Happy Days to The Great Depression.

As we went over in previous classes, the 1920s was a time of prosperity. People had jobs, money and more freedom to enjoy life.

The 1930s were very different. It is remembered by: The stock market crash on “Black Tuesday,” prairie drought conditions, falling wages, low agriculture prices, unemployment, relief and social security progrmas, work camps, protests, social change, lack of confidence in the banks, other financial institutions and governments.
