A Record Election-Year Heat Wave (1936)
Manage episode 430695871 series 2642812
It's the middle of July. In 1936, much of the country -- especially the Midwest -- is experiencing record heat.
Jody, NIki, and Kellie discuss why the heat was so deadly, how it created economic and social ripple effects, and why FDR was able to rally the country to talk about government solutions to some of the problems the heat exacerbated.
