AP HEIMLER REVIEW GUIDE (formerly known as the Ultimate Review Packet):

In this video Heimler takes you through Unit 7 Topics 9-10 of the AP U.S. History curriculum which is set in period 7 (1898-1945).

The stock market crash of October 1929 is often understood as the beginning of the Great Depression. However, the stage was set for a depression long before that date. The combination of agricultural overproduction and historically high tariffs contributed to the start of the depression as did unwise investment practices like buying on margin.

Once the Depression began, Americans were in the mood for some government intervention into their misery and so they elected Franklin D. Roosevelt whose New Deal ushered in a dizzying array of government programs designed to provide relief, recovery, and reform.

There was a great deal of criticism for the New Deal, both from conservatives and from liberals, and the Supreme Court stepped in on more than one occasion to narrow the scope of New Deal programs that were unconstitutional.

Shoutout to the one guy I can count on either weeks in advance, or the night before a test to get me great information where I actually understand it!!!

[megwilcox]

heimler, you are a godsend to all ap students in need of easy, accessible material to study. tysm for all your hard work... i and my ap class are indebted to you. if possible, i think it would be really cool for all this info to be in podcast form someday so that people can simply listen to it instead of watching the videos (or in addition to watching them). thank you again sm you cannot understand how much you are blessing the ap history realm

My great-grandfather was a World War One veteran and he worked for the WPA.
He used to call it the We Piddle Around.

i am so grateful for your videos, but this topic is akin to the sentiments that most apush student possesses when they are dying mentally because of this course's workload and vast expanse of knowledge required for us to be obtained
