5. How did the Roaring 20s lead to a
global 鍖nancial collapse?
1. Stock Market Crash of 1929 in America
Many believe erroneously that the stock market crash that occurred on Black
Tuesday, October 29, 1929, is one and the same with the Great Depression. In fact, it
was one of the major causes that led to the Great Depression. Two months after the
original crash in October, stockholders had lost more than $40 billion dollars. Even
though the stock market began to regain some of its losses, by the end of 1930, it just
was not enough and America truly entered what is called the Great Depression.

6. Social consequences of the Great Depression:
working class children consistently leaving school at thirteen or fourteen years old
married women carrying a greater domestic burden: home-making was still considered a
woman's role, so even if a woman had worked all day scrubbing 鍖oors to bring in some money, her
unemployed husband would still expect her to cook dinner and keep the house in order
jobs being easier to 鍖nd for young people, but the work had little future career prospects and
many young workers were sacked by the time they turned sixteen, eighteen or twenty-one years of
age
migrants, particularly those from Italy and southern Europe, being resented because they
worked for less wages than others despite having relatively little in the way of family or friends to
call on for help.
