A Gentle Breeze


As I sit here all alone admiring the view of an early sunrise
I tilt my head back and close my eyes.
A soft gentle breeze crosses my face
I look around and enjoy the quietness of God's peace and the soft gentle pace
The trees are in full bloom, the leaves ready to fall
God's beauty of earth, I admire it all.
As the sun comes up and begins a new day
I sit here quietly and begin to pray.
Dear God, I begin to say, please watch over my life and keep me safe
Give me hope and show me faith.
Guide my path and let me know you are near.
Allow me to be strong and filled with love, for love conquers all fear.
A gentle breeze crosses my path, and gives me a slight chill
God answers and says: I am with you still.
I've never left you alone, or threw you aside, I am in your heart, I will be your guide.
I will show you the way to master life's difficulties, and trust your heart,
For I am with you now and forever, I shall never part.
A gentle breeze I feel again, I know my prayers are answered, God has heard my plea.
He has pointed this out for me to see.
Life has many surprises each and every day. We cannot live on regrets and sorrow.
Once again I feel a gentle breeze which means God is saying:
My child there is a tomorrow:
The sun will shine once again, the birds will continue to sing.
Memories will last forever, and enjoy life a new today, and all that it may bring.

Camera Movement 
LIT 441

Writing About camera movement

In the move, Grapes of Wrath there is a speech called,  “ I will be there” (by Tom Joan). The camera gets a close up of the actor as he stared to speak and it t follows on zooming in a close up of his face and track the actor. He is not on the center of the screen, he is more to the right of the screen, as he gives the speech. The actor’s is looking down like he is thinking and says, “No you I Casey fair”, he says. Then the actor lift his face up and continues his speech, “only got a phone peaceable", he states. As the actor moves his head up, the camera follows him. The camera is off screen top. As he says, " be one big former belongs yeah”. The other actress is talking on the back, however the camera does not focus to her face or any part of her, but we can be heard  when she says, “then what happen?". The camera  is zoomed  in,  reframing to a close up of the actor’s face,  while actor continues with the speech. The actor continues  with "what to don't matter I will be all around the park" and he pauses and then continues saying "rpt required work. whenever there is fight to hungry people can be I will be there,  order cop heat map guy I will be there Appian Way guys you know her/his man way can flash hungry no people the hay my house same people  will be there". As the actor finished that statement it looks like it is cut. The camera now focus on the other actor in a closed up of her face as well. You could see that the camera was not following or tracking the other actor, (the mother of Joad).

Me siento tan perdida, que deseo que este sentir que es tan fuerte seas tu y me abrazaras y me dijeras, AQUI ESTOY YO CONTIGO, NO TENGAS MIEDO.



When you do not know what to do, and you feel sad. 

It feels a big hole in your soul , and I wonder what is the soul? the soul really exist? Sadness is very strong and nothing distracts you . Time passes and still in the same storm . One wonders if this is really the situation warrants. A brief thought , pass port and mint appear telling you with a question , this is a nightmare ? awakes  you and your being my other half , the person that filled my soul awakens me and assures me that nothing happens that all is well and comes joy . But the sound of a phone woke you ! This is not true , you wake up and know it's not true. Wait , But only in my mind and if there is a movie about love. Maybe there is another way to motivate my life? Because you know and understand foulbrood are feeling. And you also wondered , my other half is going to feel the sadness I feel? What is the moral of my situation , who understands this playwright. You be the judge, tell me more, whey you feel sad. I do want to know….when you are sad, what do you do? I do want to know...

Se siente un gran agujero en su alma , y me pregunto qué es el alma ?

el alma existe realmente? La tristeza es muy fuerte y nada te distrae . Pasa el tiempo y aún en la misma tormenta . Uno se pregunta si esto es realmente la situación lo amerita . Un breve pensamiento , pasar el puerto y la menta parece que le dice con una pregunta , esto es una pesadilla ? usted y su ser mi otra mitad , la persona que llenó mi alma me despierta y me asegura que no pasa nada que todo está bien y viene la alegría se despierta . Pero el sonido de un teléfono que se despertó ! Esto no es cierto , te despiertas y sabes que no es cierto. Espera, pero sólo en mi mente y si hay una película sobre el amor . Tal vez hay otra manera de motivar a mi vida ? Porque usted sabe y entiende loque están sintiendo . Y también se preguntó , mi otra mitad se va a sentir la tristeza que siento? ¿Cuál es la moraleja de mi situación , que entiende este dramaturgo . Sea usted el juez , dime más , usted se siente triste . Yo quiero saber….

William Shakespeare. Become a Fan 18642 Fans William Shakespeare (baptised 26 April 1564) was an English poet and playwright, widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's pre-eminent dramatist. He is often called England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon" (or simply "The Bard"). His surviving works consist of 38 plays, 154 sonnets, two long narrative poems, and several other poems. His plays have been translated into every major living language, and are performed more often than those of any other playwright. Shakespeare was born and raised in Stratford-upon-Avon. Scholars believe that he died on his fifty-second birthday, coinciding with St George’s Day. It is an interesting idea that English writer is so closely identified with the Patron Saint of England! At the age of 18 he married Anne Hathaway, who bore him three children: Susanna, and twins Hamnet and Judith. Between 1585 and 1592 he began a successful career in London as an actor, writer, and part owner of the playing company the Lord Chamberlain's Men, later known as the King's Men. He appears to have retired to Stratford around 1613, where he died three years later. Few records of Shakespeare's private life survive, and there has been considerable speculation about such matters as his sexuality, religious beliefs, and whether the works attributed to him were written by others. Shakespeare produced most of his known work between 1590 and 1613. His early plays were mainly comedies and histories, genres he raised to the peak of sophistication and artistry by the end of the sixteenth century. Next he wrote mainly tragedies until about 1608, including Hamlet, King Lear, and Macbeth, considered some of the finest examples in the English language. In his last phase, he wrote tragicomedies, also known as romances, and collaborated with other playwrights. Many of his plays were published in editions of varying quality and accuracy during his lifetime, and in 1623, two of his former theatrical colleagues published the First Folio, a collected edition of his dramatic works that included all but two of the plays now recognised as Shakespeare's. Shakespeare was a respected poet and playwright in his own day, but his reputation did not rise to its present heights until the nineteenth century. The Romantics, in particular, acclaimed Shakespeare's genius, and the Victorians hero-worshipped Shakespeare with a reverence that George Bernard Shaw called "bardolatry". In the twentieth century, his work was repeatedly adopted and rediscovered by new movements in scholarship and performance. His plays remain highly popular today and are consistently performed and reinterpreted in diverse cultural and political contexts throughout the world. According to historians, Shakespeare wrote 37 plays and 154 sonnets throughout the span of his life. Shakespeare's writing average was 1.5 plays a year since he first started writing in 1589. There have been plays and sonnets attributed to Shakespeare that were not authentically written by the great master of language and literature.

 WHAT HAPPENS IN HEAVEN WHEN WE PRAY?

I dreamed that I went to Heaven and an angel was showing me around. We walked side-by-side inside a large workroom filled with angels. My angel guide stopped in front of the first section and said, 'This is the Receiving Section. Here, all petitions to God said in prayer are received.
I looked around in this area, and it was terribly busy with so many angels sorting out petitions written on voluminous paper sheets and scraps from people all over the world.
Then we moved on down a long corridor until we reached the second section.
The angel then said to me, "This is the Packaging and Delivery Section. Here, the graces and blessings the people asked for are processed and delivered to the living persons who asked for them." I noticed again how busy it was there. There were many angels working hard at that station, since so many blessings had been requested and were being packaged
 for delivery to Earth.
Finally at the farthest end of the long corridor we stopped at the door of a very small station. To my great surprise, only one angel was seated there, idly doing nothing. "This is the Acknowledgment Section, my angel friend quietly admitted to me. He seemed embarrassed.

"So sad," the angel sighed. "After people receive the blessings that they asked for, very few send back acknowledgments."
"How does one acknowledge God 's blessings? "I asked.
"Simple," the angel answered. Just say, "Thank you, Lord."
"What blessings should they acknowledge?" I asked.
"If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof overhead and a place to sleep you are richer than 75% of this world.

"If you woke up this morning with more health than illness.. You are more blessed than the many who will not even survive this day.""If you have never experienced the fear in battle, the loneliness of imprisonment, the agony of torture, or the pangs of starvation...

Vitamin FI loved this and want to share it with you...

Why do I have a variety of friends who are all so different in character? How can I get along with them all? I think that each one helps to bring out a "different" part of me. With one of them I am polite. I joke with another friend.I sit down and talk about serious matters with one. With another I laugh a lot. I may have a drink with one. I listen to one friend's problems. Then I listen to another one's advice for me.
My friends are all like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. When completed, they form a treasure box. A treasure of friends! They are my friends who understand me better than myself, who support me through good days and bad days. We all pray together and for each other.
Real Age doctors tell us that friends are good for our health. Dr. Oz calls them Vitamins F (for Friends) and counts the benefits of friends as essential to our well being. Research shows that people in strong social circles have less risk of depression and terminal strokes. If you enjoy Vitamins F constantly you can be up to 30 years younger than your real age. The warmth of friendship stops stress and even in your most intense moments it decreases the chance of a cardiac arrest or stroke by 50%.
I'm so happy that I have a stock of Vitamins F!
In summary, we should value our friends and keep in touch with them. We should try to see the funny side of things and laugh together, and pray for each other in the tough moments.

Woman and the  Fork
There was a young woman who had been diagnosed with a  terminal illness and had been given three months to live. So as she was  getting her things 'in order,' she contacted Her Pastor and had him come to her house to discuss certain  aspects  of her final wishes. She told him which songs she wanted sung at the service,  what scriptures she would like read, and what outfit she wanted to be buried  in. Everything was in order and the Pastor was preparing to  leave when the young woman suddenly remembered something very important to  her. 'There's one more thing,' she said excitedly..  'What's that?' came the Pastor's reply?  'This is very important,' the young woman continued. 'I want  to be buried with a fork in my Right hand.' The Pastor stood looking at the young woman, not knowing  quite what to say. That surprises you, doesn't it?' the young woman asked.  'Well, to be honest, I'm puzzled by the request,' said the  Pastor. The young woman explained. 'My grandmother once told me this  story, and from that time on I have always tried to pass along its message to  those I love and those who are in need of encouragement. In all my  years  of attending socials and dinners, I always remember that when the dishes of  the main course were being cleared, someone would inevitably lean over and  say, 'Keep your fork.' It was my  favorite part Because I knew that something better was coming...like  velvety chocolate cake or deep-dish apple pie. Something wonderful, and with  substance!' So, I just want people to see me there in that casket with a  fork in my hand and I want them to wonder 'What's with the fork?' Then I want  you to tell them: 'Keep your fork ..the best is yet to come.'  The Pastor's eyes welled up with tears of joy as he hugged  the young woman good-bye. He knew this would be one of the last times he would  see her before her death. But he also knew that the young woman had a better  grasp of heaven than he did. She had a better grasp of what heaven would be  like than many people twice her age, with twice as much experience and  knowledge. She KNEW that something  better was coming.  At the funeral people were walking by the young woman's  casket and they saw the cloak she was wearing and the fork placed in her right  hand. Over and over, the Pastor heard the question, 'What's with the fork?'  And over and over he smiled. During his message, the Pastor told the people of the  conversation he had with  the young woman shortly before she died. He also told  them about The fork and about what it symbolized to her. He told the  people how he could not stop thinking about the fork and told them that they  probably would not be able to stop thinking about it either.  He was right. So the next time you reach down  for your fork  let it remind you, ever so gently, that the best is yet to come. Friends are a  very rare jewel , indeed. They make you smile  and encourage you to  succeed. Cherish the time you have , and the memories you share. Being friends  with someone is not an opportunity, but a sweet responsibility.

The art of losing isn't hard to master;
so many things seem filled with the intent to be lost that their loss is no disaster. 
Lose something every day.  Accept the fluster of lost door keys, the hour badly spent. The art of losing isn't hard to master.
Then practice losing farther, losing faster: places, and names, and where it was you meant to travel.  None of these will bring disaster.
I lost my mother's watch.  And look! my last, or next-to-last, of three loved houses went.
The art of losing isn't hard to master. 
I lost two cities, lovely ones.  And, vaster,some realms I owned, two rivers, a continent. I miss them, but it wasn't a disaster.

Poem “One Art”
March 25, 0000
The Art of Losing Is Not Hard To Master
The art of losing is not hard to master. On the poem, “One Art” by Elizabeth Bishop, illustrates chronologically the progression of losing. In all the six stanzas  are about losing something. Love is compared first to small things not a big deal and it increases to be everything.  The writer is trying to say that losing something is not something you need to have skills. These lines are the most direct references in the poem to a painful loss for Bishop. “The art of losing isn’t hard to master” (1).  From these examples, it becomes clearer for the reader that one must be aware, in order to triumph over the loss, one should have a realistic expectations and at the same one needs to participate in these  times of losing.
The last stanza goes like this: “Even losing you (the joking voice, gesture I love) I shan’t have lied. It is evident why did I pretend to be untruth, when this feeling of warm affection is unmistakable. Human creativity of suffering is easy to become proficient though it may look like (Write it!) like disaster, the acceptance, compassion, realistic expectations, participation and realizing the potential for growth.
Bishop through the writing, exhibits the attributes of loss, one must be aware of in order to triumph over it. She lost her mother’s watched and compares with the houses that she loss, the value seems to be the same for her. Embracing loss can be a wonderful thing when you accept it, being that not all loss will lead to disaster and have potential to grow into something healthy and bountiful once again the writer is telling her readers that it is good to begin feeling comfortable with loss, as it is inevitable experiences in life. These lines are one of the most direct references in the poem to a painful loss for Bishop. (1). The repetition she chooses in her stanzas gives a reader the sense of actually encouraging those to accept loss. The importance of her choice of words to emphasize the sequence of things being lost. Lots of missing without intentions to lose. Bishops compassion and the words “Even lose you” mark the important tone of acceptance in the poem. She accepts already to loss something every day. For example to lose a key of the door or to lose an hour of her time in the day is not a disaster for her. Loss is something that is repeated continuously throughout life as well as in Bishops poem.
Compassion, the art of losing is not hard to master; the speaker is trying to say that losing something is not something you need to have skills. So many things seem filled with the intent many staff seems to be missing without intentions to lose. To get lost and loss something are not important. Then practice losing farther, losing faster:  If she would have the skills to loose, she would lose things at a faster rate; embracing loss can be a wonderful thing, Bishop expands on this idea of potential for growth out. For example, she explains to the reader the numerous losses she has taken, such as vast realms of property once owned and “. . . two rivers, a continent” (14), “I miss them, but it wasn’t a disaster” (15)... For example, the housing market of 2006 to 2011 a lots of people that had save money in cash (liquid money in the banks) now own outright their properties, or got a very low interest for their properties., but it wasn’t a disaster” (15). From these examples, it becomes clearer for a reader that in order to triumph over loss; there must also be participation in loss, that is a Realistic expectations and participation.
The fact of losing things should not have any problem, next-to-last, of three loved houses went. She lost two immense lovely cities as well, some realms I owned, two rivers, a continent. Some kingdoms that she owned, and to rivers, one of the large landmasses of the earth. I miss them, but it was not a disaster. With the repetition of loss in “One Art,” Bishop provides opportunities for the reader to interpret what is important to our lives, is it things, relationships or people. The author reminds the reader about daily loss, which would be considered normal, such as forgetting. The art of losing is not too hard to master. The poem, “One Art,” illustrates chronologically the progression of loss from losing, to coping, to expressing through a repetition rhymes. The first line and second lines are reiterated throughout the poem, with the word usage of master and intent. The phrase “isn’t hard to master” is repeated several times with a slight variation of its word usage “not too hard to master in the last stanza. Rhymes of intent appear in five of the six stanzas. Bishop’s repetitive word choice flows as it sets up the relationship of loss throughout a sequence of rhymes
The poet in her poem has a message she wants for you to see that when you lose something, to replace or move on is not that hard as how you think it is. Elizabeth also wants you to get used to losing something, keys, time, names, and place, in order for you to feel comfortable and not like it is the end of the world... Remembering that loss can also turn into growth, there is potential and opportunity for something entirely new and positive to come into play. Bishop further directs the reader to, “practice losing farther, losing faster” (7). Living daily life is the practice for learning to lose quickly and/or more efficiently. At times we may forget what it is or who we are losing and why, due to the “practice” of losing. This practice of learning to lose is achieved over time and is something everyone must accept eventually. The last line repeated, to the effect of "The art of losing isn't hard to master" suggests that the speaker is trying to convince herself that losing things is not hard and she should not worry. Bishop uses these twists to convey her attitude about losing objects. She sets up the progression of loss in the poem, going from the loss of insignificant things to the major loss of a person in a Relationship in the end. She shows through her writing that in order to triumph over loss, one must learn the attributes of acceptance, compassion, participation, realistic expectations, and realizing the potential for growth There is a positive message made out of loss, even with all of the loss detailed in the writing. As she continues to use the same phrase, she is trying to pass her message In addition, the speaker uses hyperboles when describing in the fifth tierce that she lost "two cities...some realms I owned." Since she could not own, much less lose a realm, the speaker seems to be comparing the realm to a large loss in her life. Finally, the statement in the final quatrain "Even losing you" begins the irony in that stanza. The speaker remarks that losing this person is not "too hard" to master. The shift in Bishop shows the reader that losses are not always an actual disaster could one write a disaster or losing scenario with an exaggerated outcome than the reality of it. This is relatable to young individuals, during the first decade or two of life, everything seems new and exciting, but as they age, they lose interest and excitement on new experiences. So many things seem filled with the intent to be lost that their loss is no disaster. The verse form the speaker the remarks that losing this person is not "too hard" to master. Bishop encourages the reader to show acceptance and compassion to loss, as shown throughout and in the last stanza of her writing, she actually encouraging those to accept loss, given that, loss “. . . isn’t hard to master” (1).Even with all the losses that life can bring, many times those losses have the appearance of something much worse than the reality; this is why realistic expectations are important for Bishop in defeating loss.
There is a positive message made out of loss, even with all of the loss detailed in the writing. If you do not remember all the places, and names, and cities, you have visited or did travel. None of these will bring disaster. Human creativity of suffering is easy to become proficient though it may look like (Write it!) like disaster. When the writer, states that this art of losing is “not too hard to master,” her understatement suggests the opposite, as the poem concludes that the loss “may look like (Write it!) Like disaster.” Next time you are dealing with a loss, positive or negative, remember it most likely will not be a disaster, and could very well be a learning lesson. The parenthetical “Write it!” suggests one way to cope with disastrous losses—through art. Next time you are dealing with a loss, could very well be a learning lesson. What have you lost today?

Analyzing Some of the Work of Writer and Novelist John Steinbeck.        

       
John Ernst Steinbeck was born February 27, 1902.  He died on December 20, 1968. He was an American author of twenty books, including sixteen novels, six non-fiction books, and five collections of short stories. The winner of the Pulitzer Prize Grapes of Wrath (1939). Most of Steinbeck’s work is set in southern and central California, particularly in the Salinas Valley and the California Coast Ranges region. His works often explore the themes of fate and injustice. An important production of John Steinbeck’s definitely realistic novel “The Grapes of Wrath," published in 1939.  During the years of the Great Depression. The general public was unaware or had time to prepare for this disaster, the first indication came in the time of disaster, as shocking moment placed precisely in the city of New York, on Wall Street, October 24, 1929 the day the stock market collapsed.
               States like Oklahoma, Arkansas, Texas, Nebraska and Kansas, where they were being deprived of their small farms caused by a combination of poor farming practices handle huge numbers of people , and bad weather that mother earth produced , Drought "Dust Bowl" (an area of ​​land where vegetation has been lost and reduced to dust and soil eroded, largely as a result of drought and poor agricultural practices) and strong winds as were the worst environmental disasters of the twentieth century. Like the strong winds that blew away topsoil creating a powder called. Thousands of people from these regions, entire families decided to make the long trip to California. However, this was published after Steinbeck wrote a series of articles about migrant farm workers in California in 1936. San Francisco newspaper published a series of articles written by John Steinbeck called "harvest gypsies”. The series explores the difficulties that people who live and work in the fields migrant workers face. Moreover, the name is so because these workers had no choice, but to continue moving from one place to another where they can find work. Steinbeck in an article writes: " You just get  to illegal camps where families live in the soil and have no home for you personally watch faces strong purposeful , often filled with pain to know that this new race is here to stay and you should pay attention. " What he means is that these immigrants were looking for farm work and a better life, but their hopes were left in the way of the land of dreams through the Central Valley were only large migrant camps. Thousands of migrants crossing borders in old cars indigent homeless and hungry and ready to accept any payment of wages to feed their children.  Steinbeck said to be surprise, when I look at that whole families living in cardboard boxes, babies were dying from lack of food and medicine. That is why this story or novel as it is called, the grapes of wrath (the phrase of Scripture reference Revelation 14: 17-20, where the wicked inhabitants of the earth perish) is one of the most powerful to give awareness of the plight of these people.
               It was the combination of drought and bad practices of land use that created the environmental disaster. Dust storm Elkhart, Kansas, May 1937. Unfortunately, while the plains of natural grass can survive, wheat plantings lived, when it fell dust precipitation, all crops, as wheat died bare ground exposed to winds. This was the ultimate cause of the arrival of the winds and dust storms terrible affected crops in the 1930s . There had never been dust storms like these in previous droughts. In the worst years of the 1930s in everything, the fourth day of dust reduced visibility to less than a mile. Although exact figures are not known, hundreds if not thousands of residents died blowing dust and dirty people who inhale dust. Some cities on the east coast are forced to leave the lights on the street during the day to see through the dust that blew.               In his book The Grapes Of Wrath. The author describes the flight of families from the ”Dust Bowl " design, western Kansas dispossessed, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Nevada and Arkansas. Where families, removed, caravans, homeless and hungry, sent through the mountains hunger running and pointed, like ants running for work of any kind, to lift, push, collect, anything that any burden to bear, for food . The children are hungry and are homeless. More than 400,000 people left the Great farms, victims of the combined action of a severe drought and poor soil conservation practices. The people turned away to other states, such as family moved to California for example, the story of a family stripped of everything. " . Tom gets out of jail. Freed from prison Oklahoma State after serving four years for a conviction of murder. Joan Tom makes his way back to the family farm in Oklahoma. It is with Jim Casey , a former preacher who has resigned, in the attempt to be an equal among people. Jim accompanies Tom to his house, only to find everyone around abandoned farms. An old neighbor, with nothing to do is hidden. Most families, he says, including his own, went to California in search of work. The next morning, Muley assures them that they will find the other members of the Joad family. Upon arrival, Tom finds Ma and Pa Joad packing some family assets. The family has brochures that can be read good job to pay for fruit pickers in California. The trips to California as their only hope of getting his life back on track imagine. The trip to California on an old truck full of belongings is long and arduous. Grandpa Joad , died on the way shortly after the departure of the family. Cars and rickety trucks loaded with belongings can see along the way. All families flying toward the promised land of California. Near the California border, becomes unable to continue the journey. Joad near California, heard rumors of a depleted job market. A migrant says that 20,000 people present for every 800 jobs and that their own children have died of hunger. Although Joad press in his early days in California shows tragic, as Granma Joad dies. The remaining family members move from an impoverished to another camp, vainly seeking work, struggling to find food, and desperately trying to keep her family together. The Joad family meets with much hostility in California. The camps are overcrowded and full of starving migrants, who often are nasty to each other. Those who live there are fearful and angry at the flood of newcomers, derisively labeled " Okies .” This nickname was given to all poor migrants from the southwestern states of Arkansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Texas to name a few. Work is almost impossible to find or pay a pittance such that work all day in a family cannot afford a decent meal. Fearing an uprising, large owners do everything possible to keep the poor and dependent on migrants. During his stay in an uninhabitable camp known as " Hooverville .“ Its name was given to the shanty towns built by the homeless during the Great Depression. They were named after Herbert Hoover, who was president of the United States during the onset of the Great Depression and widely blamed for her .At the beginning of his series of news; Steinbeck had exploited the sordid history of race relations in agriculture.Walk Joad family from Oklahoma to California to find the promised land where work was plentiful, wages were high and people could live in the White House by an orange grove .The dust bowl of the 1930s was the result of two dust storms that affected millions of people in large plantations of vegetables and fruits. The Grapes of Wrath Steinbeck novel is an example of a family that represents more than 400,000 people joined and went to a new beginning. They were called Okies , because that is the nickname that was given to the people of the state of Oklahoma and family in the novel that went to the fields of migrants in California to work on growing grapes in California. The writing of John Steinbeck, a bitter chapter of national history that still has not closed yet, no successful conclusion. The Grapes of Wrath takes place during the Great Depression in 1929. The Midwestern states particularly affected, winds also known as the "Dust Bowl" was the cause of the peoples of the Midwestern states to go to other places like California. Thanks to the cause of this movement, we were able to figure out the injustice that people in the field of agriculture were suffering. These people were taking all kinds of abuse in this part of the state units. Immigrants from a different type flocked to the agricultural regions of California in 1930, and the calamities of drought and depression among thousands of tenants and displaced smallholders in the Great Plains. Over 180,000 of these refugees arrived in California between 1935 and 1939, flooding the agricultural labor market, temporarily leaving undocumented or illegal immigrants in a shortage of workers temporarily.
