Presentation transcript:

Effects of the Depression How did urban and rural people survive during the Great Depression?

Suffering at Home Financial collapse causes people to lose their homes People live in makeshift shelters (Hoover hotels) creating Shantytowns known as “Hoovervilles”

Soup Kitchens & Bread Lines To eat people dug through garbage cans, charities started setting up soup kitchen & bread lines to feed people Discuss the irony of this picture.

Racial Issues in 1930s Af-Am unemployment is 50%, double what the rest of US is 1933: Due to racial competition over traditionally low paying jobs, greatest number of lynchings occur since Reconstruction In the SW, White Americans compete with Hispanics for jobs, demand Hispanics be deported (13K deported, 200 lynched) Scottsboro Boys Nine black teens accused of rape, despite lack evidence all nine are found guilty – Supreme Court rules Alabama must retry case 7 of the 9 were found guilty again in re-trial

Effects on the American Family Men: many abandoned their families, became “hoboes” 2. Women: had to take care of family, difficult to find jobs 3. Young Children: Poor diets/lack of health care = malnutrition & disease, schools are closed=uneducated future population 4. Teenagers: Many also “ride the rails” to travel the country, results in rampant crime by teens & against teens Overall: 30% suicide rate, 3X more people in mental hospitals

The Dust Bowl Rural America hit hard by the Depression & Dust Bowl Dust Bowl occurred because of overused land and removal of native plants allowing the top soil to blow away during wind storms “Migrant Mother”, by Dorothea Lange

Families can’t grow crops, 400k farms foreclosed upon Hundreds of thousands of families forced to migrate West Migrants collectively known as “Okies” (derogatory) were discriminated against in jobs, housing, etc VQ/Discuss: How does the Dust Bowl affect the people of the Great Plains?
