Dust bowl- Farmers

the dust bowl happened in the 1930's and ended in 1936. There was severe drought in the Midwest and Southern Great Plains which caused the dust storms. In 1934, an estimated 35 million acres of cultivated land had been ruined making it useless for farmers to use. The soil was stripped of moisture and was lifted by the wind creating big clouds of dust and sand. Thankfully it started to rain again at the end of 1939, but the land wasn't the way it was before.

Women At War

They would do jobs like build ship parts, manufactured ammunition,they drove buses,taxis, and street cars. This made an enormous impact on the future because it proved to them that women are strong enough and had the skills to do work that was considered for men, even though women had to stop doing the jobs as soon as the war was done.
