THE DUST BOWL THE VOICES OF HOPELESS CHILDREN IN THE LAND OF PLENTY:

MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR. WROTE… “IF YOU LOSE HOPE, SOMEHOW YOU LOSE THE VITALITY THAT KEEPS LIFE MOVING, YOU LOSE THAT COURAGE TO BE, THAT QUALITY THAT HELPS YOU TO GO ON IN SPITE OF ALL. AND SO TODAY I STILL HAVE A DREAM.” The Trumpet of Conscience, 1968

What is hope? What is hopelessness?

Have you ever…… had difficulty breathing and felt like you were choking or dying?

Have you ever…… went on a trip with your entire family and had to pack all your belongings?

Have you ever…… moved somewhere where it just didn’t seem like you belonged?

Have you ever…… felt hopeless, like you were in a situation that you could not overcome?

Well, we are about to take a journey and experience these hardships as a child living through the Dust Bowl

You will decide… was the life of a Dust Bowl child truly without hope?
