American Studies

Our study of the Great Depression begins today.  We will begin by reviewing the prosperity in the 1920's and begin to discuss how and why there were problems below the prosperous surface of the 1920's.  We will culminate with a discussion of the crash of 1929 and discuss how a stock market can "crash" and why it matters.

Assignment:  Complete Ch.12.1 "Causes of Depression" handout for class on Tuesday.
