The "Okies," displaced farmers from Oklahoma during the Dust Bowl in the 1930s, survived through resilience and adaptability. Many migrated to California and other states in search of work, often taking low-paying jobs in agriculture and other labor-intensive industries. They formed tight-knit communities, sharing resources and support among fellow migrants. Despite facing discrimination and harsh conditions, their determination and resourcefulness helped them endure the hardships of the Great Depression.
