The Great Depression and The Dust Bowl were challenging periods in American history, where economic hardship and environmental disasters affected people's lives drastically. The Dust Bowl caused farmers to lose their land due to poor farming practices and severe weather conditions, leading to health issues from inhaling the dust. Meanwhile, the Great Depression saw financial collapse, with thousands of banks failing and families becoming homeless. Despite the struggles, these events ultimately shaped the country's resilience and recovery, paving the way for new programs and initiatives to alleviate the hardships faced by many.
