Chapter Objectives Section 1: A Clash of Values I can explain the rise in racism and nativism in the 1920s.  I can describe the clash of values in the 1920s and the changing status of women. Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display the information.

Why It Matters The 1920s was an era of rapid change and clashing values. Many Americans believed society was losing its traditional values, and they took action to preserve these values. Other Americans embraced new values associated with a freer lifestyle and the pursuit of individual goals. Writers and artists pursued distinctively American themes, and the Harlem Renaissance gave African Americans new pride.

The Impact Today The 1920s left permanent legacies to American culture.  National celebrities in sports and film emerged.  Jazz music became part of American culture.  F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ernest Hemingway wrote classics of American literature. Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display the information.

Nativism Resurges In the 1920s, racism and nativism increased.  Immigrants and demobilized military men and women competed for the same jobs during a time of high unemployment and an increased cost of living.  Ethnic prejudice was the basis of the Sacco and Vanzetti case, in which the two immigrant men were accused of murder and theft. (pages 610–612) Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display the information.

Nativism Resurges (cont.) They were thought to be anarchists, or opposed to all forms of government.  Sacco and Vanzetti were sentenced to death, and in 1927 they were executed still proclaiming their innocence.  Nativists used the idea of eugenics, the false science of the improvement of hereditary traits, to give support to their arguments against immigration. (pages 610–612) Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display the information. Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display the information.

Nativism Resurges (cont.) Nativists emphasized that human inequalities were inherited and said that inferior people should not be allowed to breed.  This added to the anti-immigrant feeling of the time and further promoted the idea of strict immigrant control.  The Ku Klux Klan (KKK) led the movement to restrict immigration. (pages 610–612) Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display the information.

Nativism Resurges (cont.) This new Klan not only targeted the freed African Americans but also Catholics, Jews, immigrants, and other groups believed to have “un-American” values.  Because of a publicity campaign, by 1924 the Ku Klux Klan had over 4 million members and stretched beyond the South into Northern cities.  Scandals and poor leadership led to the decline of the Klan in the late 1920s.  Politicians supported by the Klan were voted out of office. (pages 610–612) Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display the information.

Controlling Immigration In 1921 President Harding signed the Emergency Quota Act, limiting immigration to 3 percent of the total number of people in any ethnic group already living in the United States.  This discriminated heavily against southern and eastern Europeans.  The National Origins Act of 1924 made immigrant restriction a permanent policy. (page 612) Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display the information.

Controlling Immigration (cont.) The act lowered the quotas to 2 percent of each national group living in the U.S. in 1890.  This further restricted immigrants from southern and eastern Europe.  The act exempted immigrants from the Western Hemisphere from the quotas.  The immigration acts of 1921 and 1924 reduced the labor pool in the United States. (page 612) Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display the information.

Controlling Immigration (cont.) Employers needed laborers for agriculture, mining, and railroad work.  Mexican immigrants began pouring into the United States between 1914 and the end of the 1920s.  The immigrants fled their country in the aftermath of the Mexican Revolution of 1910. (page 612) Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display the information.

The New Morality A “new morality” challenged traditional ideas and glorified youth and personal freedom.  New ideas about marriage, work, and pleasure affected the way people lived.  Women broke away from families as they entered the workforce, earned their own livings, or attended college.  The automobile gave American youth the opportunity to pursue interests away from parents. (pages 612–614) Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display the information.

The New Morality (cont.) Women’s fashion drastically changed in the 1920s.  The flapper, a young, dramatic, stylish, and unconventional woman, exemplified the change in women’s behavior.  She smoked cigarettes, drank illegal liquor, and wore revealing clothes.  Professionally, women made advances in the fields of science, medicine, law, and literature. (pages 612–614) Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display the information.

The Fundamentalist Movement Some Americans feared the new morality and worried about America’s social decline.  Many of these people came from small rural towns and joined a religious movement called Fundamentalism.  The Fundamentalists rejected Darwin’s theory of evolution, which suggested that humans developed from lower forms of life over millions of years. (pages 614–615) Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display the information.

The Fundamentalist Movement Instead, Fundamentalists believed in creationism–that God created the world as described in the Bible.  In 1925 Tennessee passed the Butler Act, which made it illegal to teach anything that denied creationism and taught evolution instead. (pages 614–615) Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display the information.

The Fundamentalist Movement The debate between evolutionists and creationists came to a head with the Scopes Trial.  Answering the request of the ACLU, John T. Scopes, a biology teacher, volunteered to test the Butler Act by teaching evolution in his class. After being arrested and put on trial, Scopes was found guilty, but the case was later overturned.  After the trial, many fundamentalists withdrew from political activism.

Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display the answer. Prohibition Many people felt the passage of the Eighteenth Amendment, which prohibited alcohol, would reduce unemployment, domestic violence, and poverty.  The Volstead Act made the enforcement of Prohibition the responsibility of the U.S. Treasury Department.  Until the 1900s, police powers–a government’s power to control people and property in the public’s interest, had been the job of the state governments. (pages 615–616) Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display the answer.

Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display the answer. Prohibition (cont.) Americans ignored the laws of Prohibition.  They went to secret bars called speakeasies, where alcohol could be purchased.  Crime became big business, and gangsters corrupted many local politicians and governments.

Click the mouse button or press the Space Bar to display the answer. Prohibition (cont.) In 1933 the ratification of the Twenty-first Amendment ended Prohibition.  It was a victory for modernism and a defeat for supporters of traditional values.
