This presentation revisits a pivotal era in U.S. history- the Great Bull Market of the 1920s and the Crash of 1929. In this lecture, Organization of American Historians Speaker Dr. Julia Ott, Associate Professor of History at The New School, explores why asset prices fluctuate and how financial values are shaped by politics, institutions, and culture. Her re-examination reveals how World War I bond drives, mass investment campaigns, and utopian promises of citizenship and prosperity transformed the American economy and society.
