The unemployment rate was at about 24.9%, with around 13 million Americans not being able to find work, predominantly through no fault of their own. The United States Gross Domestic Product was at its lowest point.

Between the years of 1929 and 1939, many people worldwide was devastated and desperate due to the Great Depression. American citizens often starved with having little to no food in their homes. The Dust Bowl left many with dried-up, withered away crops. The drought affected farmers and their fields greatly. With the stock market crash of 1929, 659 banks closed. Depositors were left with nothing. The financial gains from the previous year were gone. Many suicides were committed; businessmen did not want to live with what lay ahead of them. Due to the Hawley-Smoot Tariff Act, European countries no longer wanted to buy American-made items due to the increased tariffs. This would result in egregious conditions, leaving many Americans hopeless. Soon, the Depression would become worldwide.…

Ronald Reagan’s crusade had the consequence of creating a climate for discriminatory congressional legislation and law enforcement.…
Ronald Reagan was the American dream. He came from humble beginnings in Dixon, Illinois and after graduating college began a career in radio which presented an opportunity while broadcasting Chicago Cubs baseball games to take a screen test which resulted in his becoming an actor whose career spanned 50 films. Most would consider this to be the peak of success and the satisfaction and achievement for a lifetime, but not Ronald Reagan. His move into politics came as a result of trouble in the Screen Actors Guild in which he was president. He continued to be politically active during the fifties as a spokesman for General Electric until he came to national prominence in 1964 delivering a speech named, “A Time For Choosing,” during the Presidential campaign of Barry Goldwater. Goldwater lost…
Dwight D. Eisenhower, the 34th President of the United States, at the end of his second Presidential term, delivered his farewell address to the nation. The generation of the day was apparently more focused on the up and coming next President, John F. Kennedy then they were with the warning that President Eisenhower issued. The President brought forth a potent message on the need to have a strong and responsive military supported by an enduring weapons industry; however, he also stated that we must guard against the inappropriate influence by the military-industrial complex . Since President Eisenhower’s final speech as the President of the United States, people like R. Fuller and Andrew J. Bacevich have latched on to industries unfitting…
I can picture myself standing there on that balmy day on August 28, 1963. The temperature is drifting around summer heights; but, it will tumble with the autumn leaves and flutter down to breezier temperatures soon. It is a time filled with anticipation: for change. The leaves cannot resist dressing themselves in sprinkles of red. The people are beginning to uncover jackets from the backs of closets. On this morning, 250,000 civil rights supports gather at the base of the Lincoln Memorial during the March on Washington to hear a speech that would bring about its own change—a change that would affect the lives of all of America.…
