“Ever’body’s askin’ that. What we comin’ to? Seems to me we don’t never come to nothin’. Always on the way. Always goin’ and goin’,” Casy stated in chapter 13 of the Grapes of Wrath.

The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck is a heart wrenching and eye opening novel. Steinbeck gives a clear and precise picture with the words he employs. One recurring perspective, abundantly obvious, is prejudism. Anger, fear and misunderstanding flow between the Californians and the Oklahoma immigrants, all of which cause a double-sided prejudice. As the Oklahomans come in droves from their devastated lands and attempt to build a new life for themselves, the Californians angrily look at them…

The 1930’s were a period riddled by economic depression, dubbed the “Great Depression”, the economic mishaps of the 1930’s leaked out into affecting every facet of society, even the pop culture.
