Answer:

B. The government funded photojournalists and writers to record experiences.

Explanation:

The Great Depression of 1929 was a period of devastation in the economy of the United States. Herbert Hoover, who was the President of America at that time took steps to eradicate the Great Depression by creating programs but it all failed not until the administration of Franklin D. Roosevelt, who ushered in the "New deal". Under the New deal, Roosevelt established some art projects from the Federal reliefs. These programs include the Treasury Relief Art Project, Work Progress Administration, Treasury Relief Art Project, etc. He invested in art, photography, writing, and many more.

Roosevelt created a system where photojournalists are given tasks to snap pictures of the situation of the people in the United States. Painters and writers also took part in the program. The art projects aimed to strengthen and support the people of America despite the Great depression.
