ESSENTIAL VOCABULARY Prohibition: the banning of the manufacturing, sale, and possession of alcoholic beverages. Speakeasies: Hidden saloons and Nightclubs which were underground. Called so due to people inside speaking quietly or “easy” to avoid detection. Bootleggers: Liquor smugglers from Canada, Cuba, and the West Indies.

IMPORTANCE OF PROHIBITION The Prohibition during the late twenties and early thirties, which was a period of time when alcohol was banned by the 18th amendment…..well….at least it was supposed to be. During this time period, the assumed result was reduced crime, but ironically, crime responded to the prohibition and increased.

CALL FOR PROHIBITION The 18th Amendment, passed in 1919, was proposed by many who have long considered liquor to be a corruptor. With small-town, rural community members emigrating into the city, they took their beliefs and morals with them, only to be shocked by the immorality and actions of the city folk. Along with other people, including the religious and the reformist, they appealed that liquor should be prohibited.

The Amendments The 21st amendment of the constitution, passed by congress in 1933 (14 yrs after the 18th amendment) was a Repeal of Prohibition (Amendment 18). The reaches of the 18th amendment were reduced by the followed 21st amendment.

EFFECTS OF PROHIBITION Ironically, by banning alcohol, more crime sprouted up in response (the sole thing that the amendment was to avoid). People bypassed the laws, such as going to the “Speakeasies” or purchasing their liquor from Bootleggers. Such a reaction made the amendment to be considered a enormous mistake.

Example of Criminal Opportunist Along side many criminals, some like Al Capone built their organizations along side Prohibition, having been in business five years before and now having to deal with the uprising competition.
