This is a newspaper headline announcing the issue of the 18th Amendment, which proved the temperance movement’s success and started a new era of prohibition in the United States. The Dry Amendment is the only reason why speakeasies existed in the first place. Prohibition made the prominence and success of speakeasies even more impressive than if alcohol consumption had been legal. Because of this, the enactment of the Dry Amendment shows the 1920s were roaring in the sense that Americans were beginning to indulge in unlawful behavior that would have been shunned in a previous era. The majority of Americans were not willing to comply with new regulations.This new spirit of rebellion fostered by speakeasies is one of the many reasons why the 1920s were roaring.

The 20s were roaring because it shows an unknown side. Speakeasies were very popular but they were still a secret, and it's the slight danger that made people keep coming back. ]]> 2016-12-05 18:40:51 UTC https://padlet.com/mpsheplak/4mymleb6jlpt/wish/141842170 mpsheplak https://padlet.com/mpsheplak/4mymleb6jlpt/wish/141844410 This video is a primary source that shows how the Jazz music was played during this time.

Both of these forever changed American society and future norms. Speakeasies were brought about due to the Prohibition of alcohol, or the 18th amendment, this stopped the production and sale of alcohol. With many supporters to this new law there were also many that did not agree. The rebels who wanted alcohol at any expense went to places called speakeasies. Speakeasies were bars that illegally sold alcohol to those who wanted it. In these speakeasies new things began to emerge, such as flappers and even Jazz music. Flappers were female dancers who went against the typical societal role of a woman. Flappers had short hair, wore more makeup than common, danced provocatively, and wore dresses that were far too short. Some could argue that Flappers changed the course of women’s lives and futures. Jazz was also a new and hot trend. Jazz was sang typically by African Americans which in itself was a change in history. White men and women would listen in speakeasies to this type of music. It became popular among the different races. African Americans liked Jazz because it was a way to express their everyday struggle and to even shed light on things of their lives. Whites liked the music because it showed that times had changed and they were changing along with it. ]]> 2016-12-07 01:17:19 UTC https://padlet.com/mpsheplak/4mymleb6jlpt/wish/142188335 mpsheplak https://padlet.com/mpsheplak/4mymleb6jlpt/wish/142198897 Throughout the 1920’s, jazz music evolved into an integral part of American popular culture. The “primitive” jazz sound that had originated in New Orleans diversified, and thus appealed to people in every echelon of society. Jazz music had a profound effect on the literary world, which can be shown through jazz poetry. Fashion in the 1920s and today, are another way in which jazz music influenced popular culture.  Jazz has inspired more praise and more controversy than any other American music. Jazz, more than any other music, has been closely associated with the geographical, social, political, and economic affects of American cities as well as the fluctuating reputation of American culture throughout the world. n the 1920s, jazz symbolized the cultural struggle between modernists and traditionalists. The Women’s liberation movement was also furthered by jazz music. The status of African Americans rose, due to the African American music. Jazz is everywhere today. From nightclubs to concerts, to slang and CD’s, it has made a forever lasting impact on the world. ]]> 2016-12-07 03:40:11 UTC https://padlet.com/mpsheplak/4mymleb6jlpt/wish/142198897 mpsheplak https://padlet.com/mpsheplak/4mymleb6jlpt/wish/142200647 2016-12-07 04:14:27 UTC https://padlet.com/mpsheplak/4mymleb6jlpt/wish/142200647
