The U.S state of Oklahoma (along with several other states in the immediate vicinity) were known as part of "The Dust Bowl".
In the mid 1930s, a major drought in the mid-west caused dust storms, now known as the Dust Bowl, which forced thousands and thousands of people to flee their homes. This was mainly in Oklahoma.
The "Okies and Arkies" were migrant farmers moving from Oklahoma (Okie), Arkansas (Arkie), and Texas to California during the Great Depression and the Dust Bowl.
The Okies and it didn't matter if you were born and raised in Kansas.
