American Power Families Part 2: Into the Dirty Thirties (1x5)

Air date: Jun 04, 2016

Early in 1929, the American boom still knows no bounds. But on October 24, 1929, Wall Street sees the biggest crash ever recorded. We show footage and a dramatic voiceover from just days after "Black Thursday". John D. Rockefeller records a message for those left in despair by the crash.
