The
1930's: A 20,000 Word Essay
They
say a picture is worth a thousand words, and in studying the decade of
the 30’s such a statements holds true. The tremendous toll the Great
Depression took on our nation was captured in an unprecedented way through
the talents of photographers, artists, cartoonists, writers, poets, songwriters,
musicians, and filmmakers. As we study the causes and effects of
the Great Depression through the lenses, pencils, and brushes of those
who lived it, we hope to gather a greater understanding of its impact on
the people, government, physical environment, and future of the United
States.
