Rare and unique color photos about the life of Americans during the Great Depression

The 30s of the last century, until the outbreak of World War II, are considered one of the most difficult and destructive periods in US history. The economic crisis that began in the late 1920s turned the lives of most citizens of the state into a hopeless series of hungry, gray days and months. The phrase "The Great Depression" perfectly describes the reality of the Americans of those days - a gloomy, hopeless existence could hardly be called life in the full sense of the word. Often, sad scenes of American everyday life can be seen in shabby black and white pictures, but these frames are absolutely unique! The Great Depression is captured in color in photographs provided by the Library of Congress.
