The Roaring Twenties Brandon Lim

Sports The most popular sports in the twenties was baseball. The most popular American athlete of the twenties was baseball player Babe Ruth. His suspicious home run hits and his high style of living made him one of the greatest source of obsession of the decade. Fans were enthralled in 1927 when Ruth hit 60 home runs, setting a new single- season home run record that was not broken until 1961.

Crime and Al Capone During the twenties the distribution of alcohol in America was banned. The greatest crime lord of this time was Al ‘Scarface’ Capone. He smuggled in and distributed alcohol all over the country earning him tons of cash. In order to stay safe he killed hundreds of people and made sure that the evidence couldn’t link to him in anyway. In the end he was hunted down and arrested for his most minor crime: Tax evasion.

The Cinema At the beginning of the decade, films were silent and colorless. In 1922, the first all-color feature, Toll of the Sea, was released. In 1926, Warner Bros. released Don Juan, the first feature with sound effects and music. In 1927, Warner released The Jazz Singer, the first sound feature to include limited talking sequences. The most popular cartoon of the decade was Felix the cat.

Famous Buildings The Chrysler Building (construction: ): was the tallest skyscraper of that time. It was built as an office building. The architect was William Van Alen (American Architect). Ownership: Abu Dhabi Investment council (UAE)(90%), Thishman Speyer(USA)(10%).

The Jazz Age The jazz of the 1920s was typified by such musical artists as Paul Whiteman, Ted Lewis, Nat Shilkret and Bob Haring. Both Paul Whiteman and Ted Lewis competed with each other for the title of King of Jazz during the 1920s.

K.K.K. The second KKK preached racism, anti- Catholicism, anti-Communism. Some local groups took part in attacks on private houses, and carried out other violent activities. The violent episodes were generally in the South. The second Klan adopted a burning Christian cross as its symbol. No such crosses had been used by the first Klan, but the burning cross became a symbol of intimidation by the second Klan

Black Tuesday On October 29, 1929, also known as Black Tuesday, stock prices on Wall Street collapsed. The events in the United States added to a worldwide depression, later called the Great Depression, that put millions of people out of work across the world throughout the 1930s
