Jazz Age Slang Cont. How does this new vocabulary reflect the culture of the Jazz Age? What role does slang play in your life today? Is the way we talk a reflection of our society today, if so, how?

Nativism Preference for native born people Limit immigration Normalcy People felt threatened by immigrants

Sacco and Vanzetti Immigrants and anarchists Blamed for the murder and robbery of two men Found guilty and executed

Eugenics Improving hereditary traits Inequalities are inherited Don’t breed with “inferior” races

KKK Resurgence during the 20s Targeted African Americans as well as Jews and other immigrants Pledged to preserve America’s white, Protestant civilization

New Morality Encouraged youth and freedom Women in the workforce Cars= independence Flapper= unconventional woman Drank prohibited liquor Smoked Clothing was too revealing Charleston

Prohibition Banning alcohol Eighteenth Amendment, 1920 Speakeasies= secret bars Bootlegging= illegal production and distribution of alcohol Organized crime fostered speakeasies Al Capone= dominated organized crime

Prohibition How do you get people to stop doing something that isn’t good for them? Do the lessons of Prohibition apply to drugs? Some people say we should make it legal to buy drugs; then criminals could not earn big money selling drugs. Others say that would encourage people to use drugs. What do you think?
