SUMMARY:The Great Depression Lecture Series - "Commodity Crisis: Farmers\, Markets\, and the Rural Economy of the 1920s"
DESCRIPTION:The Great Depression Lecture Series – “Commodity Crisis: Farmers\, Markets\, and the Rural Economy of the 1920s”\nJanuary 28 | 6:00PM\nWood County Museum Meeting Room\nFREE \nA decade before the United States was thrown into a global economic depression\, dire conditions in the countryside offered signs of a looming crisis. The rural farm economy\, plagued by flailing commodity prices and ballooning debts\, highlighted an underlying instability in global markets. As farmers faced new and unprecedented challenges\, policymakers in Washington were slow to act and farm families paid the price. In this program\, we will begin our dissection of the Great Depression by investigating the period’s first victim’s: America’s struggling farmers. In doing so\, we will lay the groundwork for better understanding the many faces and places affected by this historic economic crisis. \nThis is the first installment in the Great Depression Lecture Series\, an America 250 program. This is a Wood County Park District lead event\, in partnership with the Wood County Museum.
