Margin Calls
This is a picture of when people came from margin calls. Margin calls are when someone is called to pay them money immediately from what they owe. The problem was that the people didn't have the money to pay them back. >http://thegreatdepression2013.wikispaces.com/The+Stock+market+Crash+of+1929
The Children
The children had to live as worse as the adults had to. They grew up poor and had no money to do anything. Their parents tried teaching them how to understand why they were living that way. It was something they tried teaching a lesson in, in school. >http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ixD0s6fsPBc/T6_FsC1IJyI/AAAAAAAABR4/6CAHL-I6FMw/s1600/Children_of_the_Depression.jpg
Recovering
By 1932, people in the US were trying as hard as they could to recover from the stock market crash. President Roosevelt and The New Deal saved the nation and made it the greatest country on earth by making the power of a middle class stronger. >http://derosaworld.typepad.com/derosaworld/2008/09/
To Kill a Mockingbird
" 'Why does he pay you like that?' , I said.
'Because that's the only way he can pay me. He has no money.'
'Are we poor, Atticus?'
Atticus nodded. 'We are indeed' "
This is explaining how they are in the middle of the Great Depression because everyone in town doesn't have a lot of money. So they have to pay each other through work or something that isn't with money.
