plz asap

The Okies is a pejorative term to refer to the people from Oklahoma.

Explanation:

Oklahomas suffered a lot during the Great Depression because they were affected by two separated events.

The first is the economic crisis of the 1930s that hit farmers particularly hard, because demand for agricultural goods fell sharply at the same time that there was a glut in production.

The second is the Dust Bowl, a series of dust storms that wrecked the Great Plains, and hit Oklahoma especially hard.

This led to the migration of many Oklahomas, mostly to California's Central Vallye, in order to find employment in the agricultural sector of that area.
