What caused the changes? Read “The Younger Generation” and answer the questions at the bottom. Based on what the author said, what caused the changes in society?

Reasons for Changes in Society 1. An increase in technology that led to in increase in leisure time 2. A booming economy put more money in the market 3. The growth of mass media led to a mass culture 4. WWI challenged peoples’ religious beliefs and led to looser morals

Women Women began to change their attitudes reflecting their freedoms during WWI 1920—women were granted the right to vote (19 th Amendment) Women joined political parties and were elected to government offices WWI—women moved in better jobs/ “male” at home.

“Flapper”— Rebelled against traditional ways of thinking and acting  New style of dress showing off more skin and attitude  Short skirts, short hair “bobbed”, small hats “cloche”, drank, smoked and danced!

Businesses still discriminated against women, barred from many universities, could not be jurors

African Americans After WWI, AF AM returned from service hoping for greater equality Large numbers moved to Northern cities in the Great Migration

Marcus Garvey came to NY from Jamaica to establish UNIA (Universal Negro Improvement Assoc.) His message of equality and self respect attracted many African Americans.attracted

He urged a return to Africa, saying no equality can happen in the US. He sold stock in a Black Star Steamship to Africa, but was arrested for fraud.

Prohibition and Organized Crime Prohibition: A Total ban on alcoholic drinks Reasons  During the War it was supported as way to preserve grains  To stop the problems associated with intoxication and alcoholism 1919 the 18 th Amendment added to the Constitution banning alcohol (prohibited making, selling, transporting, consuming alcohol)

An Outsiders Impression of Prohibition Read a German visitor’s first impressions of Prohibition and answer the following questions:  How did people “get around” Prohibition?  What were some of the positive results and negative results of Prohibition?

Drop in the amount of alcohol consumed, arrests associated with drunkenness declined Speakeasies or illegal taverns that served alcohol sprung up everywhere Speakeasies Increase in illegal smuggling from Canada and the Caribbean

Liquor smugglers called bootleggers made huge profits selling alcohol The money to be made bootlegging encouraged organized crime and gang wars In st Amendment repealed prohibition
