Stories From the Great Depression
In order to prepare for our upcoming Socratic Seminar, you must acquire a sufficient level of
background knowledge to carry on a conversation. The video you will watch contains a number
of images as well as the accounts of several men and women who grew up during the Great
Depression. I want you to pay attention and pick six stories that you found to be the most
interesting and make sure to write the person's name.

Kentucky and Tennese
