Mastheads & Analysis
Jamie Marshall analyzed 5 masthead designs for their magazine through a group discussion. The group felt the genre of the magazine was hip hop based on the name. They also felt mastheads 2 and 3 were the best designs, with masthead 3 working best because the bold style would match the hip hop genre. Masthead 5 was viewed as the worst design since some letters were not visible and the style did not fit hip hop. Jamie agreed masthead 3 was the best choice as the bold style would look good at the top of the magazine, but would need additional effects and colors added.

Soup Kitchens 1930s
Soup kitchens first emerged in the United States in 1929 during the onset of the Great Depression to meet the growing need for food as unemployment rose to 12 million Americans by 1932. Initially run by churches and charities, soup kitchens served basic meals primarily of soup and bread to large numbers of people each day. By the mid-1930s, both state and federal governments also operated soup kitchens to help address widespread poverty and food insecurity. Soup kitchens remained commonplace during the Depression era across cities and towns to provide meals for the hungry. Some, like Volunteers of America, later expanded their social services while others still operate today assisting homeless individuals and families.
Hoovervilles
In the 1930s, due to the economic devastation of the Great Depression, shantytowns known as Hoovervilles emerged across the United States as unemployed people lost their homes and had no place else to live. These makeshift communities, made up of scrap materials like cardboard and tin, provided shelter for homeless families and individuals who blamed President Hoover for the economic downturn. The largest Hooverville was located in New York City's Central Park and housed thousands. Efforts to eliminate Hoovervilles in the 1930s proved difficult as the communities persisted due to lack of alternatives for residents. It was not until 1941, after employment levels began rising again during World War II, that shantytowns were finally torn down
History Of Orphanages
There have been orphanages since the Middle Ages, with the first in North America opening in 1729. By the 1850s, New York state alone had 27 orphanages housing large numbers of children in poor conditions. An investigation in 1916 found children working long hours with little schooling and some without food. Alternatives like foster care and welfare programs began replacing orphanages in the 1930s-1970s due to concerns over their treatment of children.
