6. Explain what the Dust Bowl caused people in that region to do.?

The Dust Bowl prompted many people in the affected regions, primarily the Great Plains, to abandon their farms and seek better opportunities elsewhere, particularly in California and other more stable agricultural areas. This mass migration, often referred to as "Okies," led to significant demographic changes and strained resources in the destinations. Many families faced hardship during their relocation, as they encountered discrimination and economic challenges in their new homes. Ultimately, the Dust Bowl highlighted the vulnerabilities of farming practices and environmental management in the face of extreme drought and soil erosion.
