During the 1920's Americanism looked like something under Trumps administration, otherwise meaning immigration was becoming harder for immigrants moving from the destruction in WWI.

They established their literary reputations in the 1920s. The name came from something that Gertrude Stein witnessed a garage owner say to his employee: "You are all a lost generation". This saying referred to the lack of purpose that had resulted from the disillusionment that was felt by the people who had lived and grew up through the war. Members of this group were nomadic and they explored their own set of values that went against what their elders had established. They were basically rebellions. ]]> 2017-02-20 02:46:52 UTC https://padlet.com/10064851/am8os92fqe8j/wish/154849197 10064851 https://padlet.com/10064851/am8os92fqe8j/wish/154851483 Return to normalcy meant that Harding wanted America to return to life before the war.

Clark and was depicted in the book "Heroes of the Fiery Cross". In the book, the author strongly advocated white supremacy and said that enemies of the KKK were those who took the path of least resistance. The enemies included: law breakers, corrupt politicians, immigrants, and Catholics. Members of the KKK, as well as other Whites, believed that the Catholics were trying to take lessons of the Bible out of the public school system. The KKK strongly opposed this and as shown in the cartoon the KKK strove to keep the Bible in public schools. They did so by donating bibles across the nation and by having floats in their parades demonstrate the importance of bibles being taught in schools. The cartoon shows that the KKK thought they were "saving" the country by keeping bibles in public schools. Also as clearly shown in the cartoon, the Klan was also against Darwinism. ]]> 2017-02-20 20:06:17 UTC https://padlet.com/10064851/am8os92fqe8j/wish/155005573 10064851 https://padlet.com/10064851/am8os92fqe8j/wish/155010978 Babe Ruth was a very famous baseball player. He was very loved and embodied the expectations of a hero. Sports in the 1920s began to flourish because of newspapers, radios, magazines and other things. People began to watch and listen (radio) to sports instead of engaging in them. This is where "couch potato" syndrome began. Watching Babe Ruth play baseball became more important than playing yourself. ]]> 2017-02-20 20:38:26 UTC https://padlet.com/10064851/am8os92fqe8j/wish/155010978 10064851 https://padlet.com/10064851/am8os92fqe8j/wish/155014133 Flappers represented a new moral order and many Americans found the flapper very threatening. Flappers dance suggestively and openly flirted with boys. The Flapper image consisted of changes in women's clothing and hair. Flappers had very short hair and also began to wear makeup.

Since the economy was so high it was possible that poverty would go away. ]]> 2017-02-20 21:30:36 UTC https://padlet.com/10064851/am8os92fqe8j/wish/155017399 10064581 https://padlet.com/10064851/am8os92fqe8j/wish/155059411 1.
