Segregation and Discrimination stories
will never be told exactly honest

Depression was that the Wall Street
Crash of 1929 happened and stock
market started to fall and many
people lost their jobs, homes and
couldn’t afford anything. Then in
September 1929, the market
dropped severely and they called this
“bear market”.

caused the Great Depression along
with the Bull Market. The Bull
Market was useful because it helped
rise up the Stock market. But
something happened and it dropped

going jobless, homeless and losing a

I believe this was objective, because
the main stock market company is Wall
Street and everyone during that time
period knew it was cause of them so it
is not really biased. Also, the Bull

The Hardship of the Great Depression
plays a big role in history, because this
was the impact of everyone’s lives and
how they lived. During this time,
people struggled and couldn’t get
things they wanted like money, jobs,
homes or even provide for their family.
The hardest thing about this was that
people struggled, businesses fell down
one-fourth of the people were
unemployed.
Overall, the New Deal was very
important, because it helped with a lot.
