US History: Nov. 16-20








This week we will continue looking at the Roaring Twenties and the Stock Market Crash that followed. We will discuss how President Hoover dealt with the Great Depression vs. how President Franklin Roosevelt handled it. We will investigate how people's lives were forever changed by the Depression and how Roosevelt's "New Deal" transformed the way government interacts in the lives of citizens. We will discuss the creation of government programs as well as the brewing tensions in Europe during the depression years that eventually led to the outbreak of World War II.
