The REAL Great Depression..uncut and unseen!
Wow..amazing stuff here..it is rare to get a chance to see clips like these uninterrupted by narration. You truly get a sense for the era and people..this dvd is like a time machine that will hurl you back to that amazing era. Apparantly many of the clips included in the set have never been released in any form as they were newsreel out-takes that were not even seen back...

The Panic i On
Was interesting, but we liked other video about the depression that we ordered better. ('The Great Depression', and that one was longer and cheaper.) It did have a couple of short movies at the end that were worth watching.

The Great Depression,

Again as an educator, this is just another teaching tool for me; I wanted my students to experience that era so I TOOK THEM THERE! And once again when they put their thoughts on paper, I could plainly see they enjoyed the educational trip.
I suggest to many educators out there, if you want to really get your point across about any topic - don't just say it with notes, show it and then discuss your notes; you will not "lose" one student's attention - trust me on this.

Lawrence Strike,
By Roy "coast tramper" (Gold Beach, OR) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Panic Is On: The Great American Depression as Seen by the Common Man (DVD)
During my first view of this DVD I was surprised to see someone who I think is Elizabeth Gurley Flynn in the episode on the textile strike. Other sources say that she was there in 1934 as well as every other important labor dispute. If so it is an excellent and rare clip of the woman who is at the top of my list of most admired people. Anyone watching please take note of this dynamic woman.
