Culture

What was life like in the 1930s? In 1930s was one of the hardest times to earn money, but people did anything they could to make their lifes better. Movies were very entertaining for the people, and board games were popular to play with, so were parlor games. People from that time would gather around and listen to the New York Yankees play and everyone loved hearing the game because it was an actual sport that seemed to atract many americans, and if they weren't at the games they would listen to it on the radio. Historic events like the great depression and the war in europe was very devestating, artists at the time would draw a lot of paintings based on ther environment or the emotions. people thought that all of this was hip or cool but thats the culture of it and they enjoy some but other didn't because they had money problem. Kids had some tough times but they did whatever they could to make a better life. Imagine what it would be like to have a family full of brothers and sisters. Babies wrapped in blankets, no clothes underneath, their families couldn't afford them. Imagine all your other siblings in ragged hand-me-downs, and old scraps you found on the street. You're all so depressed, because Dad lost his job. You have to wait in line, all of you, every morning, really early, babies are still asleep, all for a microscopic crumb or crust of bread. The 1930's were a perilous time for public education, with cash money in short supply parents were unable to provide their children with the necessary clothes, supplies, and textbooks.
