How does the theme of movement apply to our study of the Great Depression (Dust<br> Bowl)?

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Also during the 1930s, at the same time as the Depression, the Great Plains region of the United States experienced an extended and destructive drought. The drought had a significant and destructive effect because of policies that reached back for decades. In 1862, the United States Congress passed the Homestead Act, and many Americans from the East moved into the plains to become farmers and ranchers. The farmers replaced the prairie grass with dry land wheat, and the ranchers had their cattle graze on the grass that was not replaced. Over time, with increasing demands for wheat, more farming occurred and damage to the prairie lands began to be long-term and significant. In 1930, a decade-long drought began, and the winds began to create dust storms on the farmed and overgrazed prairies. They literally began to be blown away. Some accounts and photographs record giant clouds of dust that would cover the sky and sun. This dust covered everything and reshaped the terrain. The “Dust Bowl” was a term referring to 19 states in the central and south-central United States that felt the brunt of the drought upon land that was mismanaged. Farm families had little choice other than to head west and try to find work. The same Resettlement Administration that was coordinating the Greenbelt Project and attempting to address rural poverty was also overseeing the farm workers and displaced sharecroppers who were forced to leave the stricken prairies of the Dust Bowl in search of work.

This historical era is commonly taught in high school social studies and history courses. The National Center for History in the Schools identifies this period in U.S. History as Era 8, Standard 1 (The causes of the Great Depression and how it affected American society) and Standard 2 (How the New Deal addressed the Great Depression, transformed American federalism, and initiated the welfare state). Related works of literature, such as The Grapes of Wrath and other texts, are sometimes used either in a social studies/U.S. history course, or in English language arts or American literature classes.

The photography of the Dust Bowl and Depression era is vast and rich, with images that were often commissioned by the Historical Section of the Farm Security Administration (FSA). FSA Director Roy Stryker approved the commissioning and collecting of more than 270,000 photographs. It was a very specific and focused part of the FSA. FSA photographs “exploited the convention of the documentary style—such as black-and-white prints and uncontrolled lighting—that signified topicality, social concern and social truth” (Stange, 1992, p. 130). These photographs were commissioned from a large group of photographers who worked in rural and urban areas across the country, and were intended to provide the urban and suburban population of America with images that would evoke humanitarian responses to the plight of those facing adversity from the economic and environmental crises of the 1930s.

This photo collection is not intended to be comprehensive. Rather, it provides several specific photographs and ways to use them in the study of particular topics. This is meant to serve as a model for creating collections of photographs to use with your curriculum. Resources listed in the bibliography at the end of this collection will help you do this.

125% of 12.8 is 16. x= 125% (12.8/x = 100/125) (12.8/x) *x and (100/125) * x (multiply both sides by x) 12.8=0.8*x (divide both sides by 0.8 to get x) 16=x so the answer is 16.

Which Native American groups attempted to resist the Indian Removal Act? (Select all that apply.)

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

The policy of the 'Indian Removal Act' had controversy in its application after agreement. This is because the issue is deemed an issue for the U.S. indigenous people. Many Indian tribes do not support this policy and try to counter and Cherokee one of them.

Explanation:

• Indian Removal Act

The' Indian Removal Act ' policy is one of U.S. President Andrew Jackson's racial policies. On May 28, 1830, this policy was signed. Five of the most important tribes are threatened as an outcome of this policy. Cherokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw, Creek, and Seminole are among these. This policy called for debate and was regarded in the United States to demean the Indians. Including Cherokee Indians who believe this policy to be unfair. Recalling that the Cherokee Indians played a quite wide part in the war against the British occupation in 1812.

• Cherokee in the United States

Cherokee is not an Indian tribe that could be underestimated. Cherokee gave the role of their land to the United States Government during the United States Revolution. With this land grant, the government promised Cherokee protection. The Cherokee Indians, however, were pushed out by the' Indian Removal Act' policy.

The policy harmed the Cherokee Indians by the U.S government to be moved to the Oklahoma area. The Cherokee Indians, however, remained resistant and opposed the policy. They attempted to reject the policy on the pretext of protecting their homeland from the oppressed white community. The Cherokee Indians endured a tragic destiny despite the battle and this tragedy became known as ' The Trail of Tears ' that claimed the lives of as many as 4,000 Cherokee people.
