=The Great Depression and the New Deal=

The Democrats nominated Franklin D. Roosevelt to run against Hoover in 1932. He became known to Americans as FDR. To decide what legislation to send to Congress, FDR conferred with a group of advisers. FDR’s advisers were nicknamed the “brain trust” because several members had been college professors. In 1933, the President faced an enormous challenge. He needed to help two sectors of the economy recover: industry and agriculture. Millions of Americans were enthusiastic about the New Deal. As a result, FDR won reelection in 1936 by a wide margin. Still, the New Deal faced a major challenge in the Supreme Court.



What perspectives are there on the effectiveness of the New Deal? How well did it work? The committee that drafted the Social Security Act was chaired by FDR’s secretary of labor, Frances Perkins. The first woman to serve in the Cabinet, Perkins backed major labor reforms.The Social Security Act and other reforms permanently enlarged the role of the federal government. However, not everyone agreed that the government should take such an active approach to social problems. The debate over the New Deal continues to this day. = = = = = = =Reflection=

I made my video by putting pictures on. I had to play with I Movie and found things out they that i did not know. Some of the challenges i face was putting words on the pic but I overcome it by testing something out and it was right. Also I was Mr. Bruce's guinea pig for putting the video on.
