The great depression had a major impact on the great depression because people were buying on credits and then couldn't pay the banks back causing them to close. From 1929 to 1933 the number of bank suspensions went from 659 to 4,004. Many people took all of their money out of the banks in panic of losing all their money.

During the great depression, unemployment rates went up. Between the years 1930 and 1939 unemployment was a really big thing. The rate of unemployment started only at 9% then skyrocketed to 25% but between 1934 and 1937 the unemployment rate went down to roughly 15% then back up to about 19% in 1938. Then unemployment rates went down from there from the end of the great depression.

My claim is that during the great depression unemployment was at a high. My evidence is that on the graph during the time 1931 and 1939 was when it showed unemployment at its highest.

My claim is that during the great depression the unemployment rate was up, in 1933 there was a max 25% unemployment rate. The unemployment issue caused people to go into debt because they spent money that they did not have.

When the great depression happened, many were left unemployed. Meaning they don't have money to feed their families, buying new supplies. The graph compares blacks and whites in 1931 & 1932. Shows more blacks were unemployed than what whites were. The time was still somewhat racial. So they were biased and picky for what they needed/wanted.

The panic of the Great Depression (1929-1939) caused more bank suspension later rather than earlier because according to table two, the bank closures increased over time from 659 in 1929 to 4004 in 1933 a year.  Overall it shows how the people panicking and removing money out of banks had a more devastating effect on banks than the crash itself.

The evidence in the graph shows that many people were unemployed during the Great Depression. In the beginning of the Great Depression the unemployment rate went very high from 1930 to 1939. The highest the unemployment rate was 25% of the population. With many people  being unemployed in the United States it caused people to start going into debt because they were spending money that they did not have.

I used graph 1. I think unemployment was the biggest effect because if you look at the graph you can see the number bottoming out and decreasing at a rapid rate.
