The Changing 1920s Pop Culture- Women cut their hair and wore shorter dresses, fast paced dances, new fads

Prohibition Leads to:  Gangsters who sold alcohol illegally (like Al Capone)  Moonshiners in the South (their fast cars led to racing and NASCAR)  Speakeasies, flappers, women’s advances  Development of jazz

The Changing 1920’s The Red Scare- Fear of Communism coming to America. Immigrants- Anti German/ Eastern European hysteria: Immigrants seen as cheap labor taking jobs. Laws passed to limit immigration. KKK includes Catholics as groups to be hated. The Stock Market- People invested in stocks to build vast fortunes. Prosperity ends in 1929 when the market crashes.

Southern Problems The boll weevil destroys the cotton crop (up to 75% in some cases). Major drought in Number of farms drops dramatically and millions of blacks move North to find work, causing a major migration. Depression starts much earlier in the South.
