Destruction

Wall Street Crash

At the end of the 1930s there was a very unfortunate event that took place. TheWall Street Crash. People went into depression because they had no money, no savings, no anything. Depression was in the air and this contrasted vastly with roaring 20s of luxury and glamour before.

The new found financial crisis opened up a huge noticeable gap between the rich and the poor. The wealthy would still be able to run a house in London as well as being able to travel to a weekend retreat. They could afford to keep servants and be well educated and to also still shop in designer boutiques.

However, the poor was a very different matter. They had to stay in rooms with whole families of at least 8 or more in them with no running water and no inside toilet, no anything. They had to walk the streets looking for jobs and searching for where their next meal would come from.
