American Studies

In class this week, we discussed how economic trends such as an uneven distribution of wealth,  overreliance on credit, and other economic flaws caused economic collapse marked by massive deflation, widespread unemployment and bank failures.  In class today, we viewed a few video clips to illustrate just how hard these economic factors hit Americans in both urban and rural areas.

Reminder:  Great Depression Quiz #1 -- Thursday.
