The Dust Bowl documentary chronicles the worst man-made ecological disaster in American history, when a frenzied wheat boom on the southern Plains, followed by a decade-long drought during the 1930s, nearly swept away the breadbasket of the nation. Today we will watch Part 2 of the documentary with a discussion to follow.
