Untitled Flashcard Set
Our Depression/New Deal test will be on Tuesday, 5/7.
For the Depression and New Deal, we have covered the following chapters in the textbook (all attached below)
22-1
22-3 (pages 684-685 only)
23-1 (up to and including p. 698)
We covered most of the material in 23-5 through classroom discussion. If you wanted to look over that in the event you needed further clarification, that would be fine. (Don't worry about the National Labor Relations Board and the idea of parity in 23-5.)
