In today's class we finished our notes on the Roaring 20's by discussing prohibition, the Red Scare, the resurgence of the KKK, and the Scopes Monkey Trial. Next, we learned about the underlying causes of the Great Depression, the most severe economic recession in our nation's history.
Classwork/Homework: Watch the episode "Stormy Weather" from the series The Century: America's Time. This episode discusses the impact of the Great Depression on Americans and other industrialized countries and these nations' response, or lack thereof. As you watch, do two things: 1.) Fill in the section of your Great Depression notes under the "What were the effects of the Great Depression?" 2.) Answer the questions on the viewing guide attached below. Upload your completed questions to Turnitin.com under the "Stormy Weather Video" assignment.
