There was a huge explosion of music, fashion, literature, and other art produced by black artists. "The Great Migration drew to Harlem some of the greatest minds and brightest talents of the day, an astonishing array of African American artists and scholars. Between the end of World War I and the mid-1930s, they produced one of the most significant eras of cultural expression in the nation’s history—the Harlem Renaissance."  (A New African American Identity: The Harlem Renaissance, 2018) Prior to this point, the only well-known examples of black people in the media were made by white people and were often mocking them.  ]]> 2020-10-06 14:53:04 UTC https://padlet.com/1473951/roaring20slawson/wish/806981000 1473951 https://padlet.com/1473951/roaring20slawson/wish/806981307 WPA Federal Theatre presents "The case of Philip Lawrence" A new play based on Geo.

This type of business practice is very prevelant in todays economy. Who knows what things would be like if this system was never invented. "The installment plan enabled people to buy goods over an extended period of time, without having to put down very much money at the time of purchase. With this plan people could purchase automobile, household appliances, homes, furniture, and other items."  (Installment Plans, n.d.) Of course, installment buying and loans are also likely factors that caused the Great Depression since people could now go into dept.]]> 2020-10-06 14:53:14 UTC https://padlet.com/1473951/roaring20slawson/wish/806981868 1473951 https://padlet.com/1473951/roaring20slawson/wish/806982554 2020-10-06 14:53:22 UTC https://padlet.com/1473951/roaring20slawson/wish/806982554 1473951 https://padlet.com/1473951/roaring20slawson/wish/807056766 Woman's suffrage was a movement that pushed for women's rights, particularly to vote, in the 1920s. This push for equality changed the way women were treated in society and without this, women would either not have the rights they do today or they would not have gotten them nearly as soon. "The public perception of the proper role and real nature of females was changing and the general economic, technological, and social changes of the period dovetailed with this attitudinal evolution to produce a material improvement in the status and condition of women in American society that should not be minimized."
