The above graphs show the Joads’ journey from Oklahoma to California, and the unemployment rates corresponding to the states they passed through. Oklahoma and New Mexico both have unemployment rates of over 25 percent, showing how the tractors and industrialization have changed the job market in those states, making people want to leave them. The fact that California, however, had less than 11 percent unemployment shows why California would seem a satisfactory place for the people emigrating from Oklahoma to resettle. There are also cities marked as “Site of Civil Unrest or Disobedience,” corresponding with sites in the book where civil unrest occurred, like Oklahoma City, where the Joads briefly visited, noticing people wearing funny combinations of clothes, as if that’s all they could afford, as well as San Francisco, very close to where the Joads ended their journey, near the civilians who drove immigrants from the Great Plains away with weapons, both hinting at or outright showing this civil disobedience.
