(A Great Depression Drama RP)

The dust came in, it left the land bare. Land of the free now land of the poor, and with that game the banks closing, the house losing, and the friends moving. As your life crumbled around you, it seemed like God had struck down this nation to let it rot.
God have mercy, God have mercy on my soul.

The year is 1932 in a Littilson Oklahoma, a agricultural majority town with some population of ten-thousands. Racism is plenty in there as the Great Depression sought to put more whites in jobs. California has just recently been told as a "Land of riches," offering plenty of jobs.
You are a farmer, a clerk; a man of the middle or lower class that has been some of the hardest hit in the depression.
(Inspired by this song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2hBkeX3k48M)

Character Gender
Name: John Abe Garrison
Age: 49
Physical Appearance: Dark skinned, with short Black hair, and a black long beard. John is 5'10 some 170 pounds, and rich with permanent bruises, and burns. His eyes are bright green however, yet still his teeth are set grey, and lips paler then most.
Clothing: Garrison wears dusted old military fatigues and plain over-all's, worn boots, plaid socks, and dented glasses.
Current Occupation: Farmer
Personality: John Abe Garrison has a hardened look on reality, telling things strait-faced, and with complete honesty. He is tough, and muttered, hard on his boys, and uneasy to other women since his deceased wife. He slowly mutters words to himself, and has taken help by the local doctor to control wild out-burst at the bar.
Bio: Born on a wheat crop of a former slave deep in the south, John Abe Garrison learned to take problems head-on, creating fights which ended with him or the opponent on the group bleeding. As he grew, his family moved along with the policies of the Home-land act to the west where the family help set up the town. This however, was where his father was lynched, and his mother sexual abused during the first K K K rising of fear and hysteria.
As he ran out of town, he grew angrier and angrier beating a supposed K K K member to death outside of the town was night of rage.
After the ordeal, John free-loaded for the years up to World War 1 where he joined the U.S combat line, and saw action in Europe, receiving commendations for his service.
After the war, and with the influx of jobs being melted away, he bought land with the little money he had to raise a family with a nurse he met over-seas, as the two has 3 children, one died from the dust, as with his wife. He is angry of the matter, and tends to drink much, beating both sons and white's if they mess in the bar.
Other: (Anything else you might want to add) A old Spring-field rifle from the war hangs on his banner, and he tends to fire at cans in the back, as he is quite skilled at it while drunk.

(Waiting, and in the mean time, I suggest focusing on creating a detailed story-arch to reveal later, and begin to form a larger over-all conflict.)

The bed was silent as the man lay down upon the heap, dusty and moldy it was. Nothing was new, this house was old, this farm was old, he was old. He was also alone, his children, they meant nothing to him; that is what happens to the old, they lose touch, become bitter.... I would say go with the wind, but John.... He was a Southerner, born of two slaves in Alabama and fought in a war in Europe. He was alot of things, but a go easy type-of-guy? No, he was everything but.
