The ROARING 1920’s Let’s Dance!!!

The Roaring 20’s Social and Economic Changes The 1920’s was one of the most boisterous decades in US history. Despite the economic and political strife that marked the early 20’s, by 1923 a new prosperity allowed many Americans to enjoy luxuries unknown during wartime, and to embrace new forms of entertainment, such as radio, sports, jazz music, and movies. For much of the decade, American society resembled a boiling kettle, fairly bursting with the wailing sounds of jazz, wildly dancing feet, the roar of thousands cheering on sports heroes like Babe Ruth, and conversations laced with such slang as “banana oil,” “Struggle Buggy,” “Sheik,” and “Sheba.” Voki Link

Emerging from this were a number of significant and enduring trends that altered the American cultural landscape. New forms of transportation such as the automobile and the airplane changed dating habits, mail service, and personal mobility. Women, who had obtained the vote in 1920, celebrated new freedoms in the workplace as well as in their social life, reflected in part by less restrictive clothing. Government attempts to regulate drinking through Prohibition laws spawned countless illegal bars and organized crime rackets. Sports took prominence in American society as a new brand of enthusiasts elevated sports heroes to Olympian magnitude. With more money to spend, American’s bought everything from vacuum cleaners to Listerine, and radios became a household necessity. “Talking” movies replaced silent films, and American’s flocked to see their favorite movie stars. The decade also witnessed the flowering of African American culture centered in Harlem-The Harlem Renaissance, that influenced American culture and music for decades to come. There will be conflict between traditional and modern values! Voki Link
