This photograph, taken during the great depression, shows how people didn't have income, by the characters just standing around almost like they are waiting. The man and women waiting out side a building or maybe a business can show you how no one was going to shop or buy anything, The characters in this image as you can see have very rough and dirty clothes on as most people in this era only had one pair of clothes cause they had sold the rest to get money. The women's jewelry can also show how this couple could have of been wealthy and now during the depression are poor. The depression was a time in witch every one struggled.

Ross, i think you did a great job explaining Waco. Besides a few minor grammatical errors, i learned a lot. You also seem to have forgotten to hyperlink one of your sources.
