How did people in the 30s cope with the depression
People in the 30 coped with the great depression by going to the beach and swimming this was a inexpensive way to escape the well the horrors of every day life. swimming was also very popular in the summer when it was hot out side. They also escaped through music\ the radio this wasn't easy because if people knew that you had a radio that means that you had more money than every one else witch could led to you not being able to get food from the soup kitchens. They could also escape through the television but at that time they were few and far between because they were most likely sold for money at that time
You gave a couple good examples about how people coped in terms of distractions, but what about day to day life? How did people feed themselves? What did they do if they needed a new pair of pants?
