A Crowd of Civilians Listening To a Speech, 1932. USA. 'In a world plagued by depression, even those with jobs were often dissatisfied with their lot. When their demands were not met, wheels came to a stop altogether. A people whose innate sense of right and wrong spurs them to fight for better wages now, rather than wait for those "better times" so often promised. So often, "just around the corner".' From "Time To Remember - Around the Corner", 1932 (Reel 2); diary of events in 1932 in the United States of America - Franklin Roosevelt becomes the President.
