Even though the 1920s were all about the "endless prosperity" of the economy, it didn't last forever. The 1929 stock market crash stopped the good economy with a grinding halt and the "US was the only nation" that ever went to the poor house" while having so much material goods (like cars). ]]> 2020-11-12 13:44:13 UTC https://padlet.com/girardistudyparty/evr8wpekao3pyt5j/wish/916373620 https://padlet.com/girardistudyparty/evr8wpekao3pyt5j/wish/916396197 My highlighted part explains the assembly line set up by Henry Ford. The assembly line produced many cars, jumping the numbers from 7 million in 1919 to 23 million 10 years later. Along with the 16 million more cars, 100,000 miles of highway were paved. The federal, state, and local governments had troubles trying to pave new roads. After all this America became a nation on wheels.

He was hiring quite a few capable men, although he was also bribing cronies to join him. This  basically made him a gangster/mobster.]]> 2020-11-12 13:49:36 UTC https://padlet.com/girardistudyparty/evr8wpekao3pyt5j/wish/916397150 https://padlet.com/girardistudyparty/evr8wpekao3pyt5j/wish/916398938 My section was about how people wanted to forget the war and Woodrow Wilson's "League of Nations". So I chose a picture showing the 369th "Harlem Hellfighters" marching in a victory parade with people cheering them on resembling the urge to forget the war and celebrate the people who fought in the war. ]]> 2020-11-12 13:49:58 UTC https://padlet.com/girardistudyparty/evr8wpekao3pyt5j/wish/916398938 https://padlet.com/girardistudyparty/evr8wpekao3pyt5j/wish/916399304 On November 20, 1920, KDKA, the nation's first ever commercial radio station began broadcasting.

This was one of the first times with mass entertainment. Movies started coming out, radios and more came out as well for entertaining the people. ]]> 2020-11-12 13:50:04 UTC https://padlet.com/girardistudyparty/evr8wpekao3pyt5j/wish/916399459 shislerc061 https://padlet.com/girardistudyparty/evr8wpekao3pyt5j/wish/916399522 What I learned from my paragraph is that America had its problems in the 20's. America had post war depression because of unemployment and falling prices. The "Red Scare" was that Americans were afraid that the Russian Revolution of 1917 might spread to America. Also, after the war, America wanted to go back to normal, and what like before the war. America elected Warren G. Harding for president because he promised that America would have normalcy, restoration, and serenity. These promises were broken when the Teapot Dome Oil Scandals were exposed. Harding died in 1923 that saved him from humiliation. ]]> 2020-11-12 13:50:05 UTC https://padlet.com/girardistudyparty/evr8wpekao3pyt5j/wish/916399522 brillk074 https://padlet.com/girardistudyparty/evr8wpekao3pyt5j/wish/916399603 My highlighted section talked about jazz and the crazy things these people did to celebrate. My picture shows one of the crazy things people in the 1920s participated in. It's called marathon dancing. You'd dance, and dance, and keep dancing until you couldn't no more. The last couple standing wins. The other things were flag pole sitting, where you would literally sit on a flagpole, and then airplane stunt flying which is when you'd stand on the wings of the plane in the air.]]> 2020-11-12 13:50:06 UTC https://padlet.com/girardistudyparty/evr8wpekao3pyt5j/wish/916399603 https://padlet.com/girardistudyparty/evr8wpekao3pyt5j/wish/916399796 My part that was highlighted was about a non-stop flight from New York to Paris and how it was in the Spirit of St. Louis.]]> 2020-11-12 13:50:08 UTC https://padlet.com/girardistudyparty/evr8wpekao3pyt5j/wish/916399796 https://padlet.com/girardistudyparty/evr8wpekao3pyt5j/wish/916400181 Fords assembly line got America rolling.

All the protests ended and it was a step to a greater equality. My picture connects to this because they are learning how to vote because they didn't know how to before, since they didn't have the right to. It relates to the topic because the 19th amendment got passed and now you can see they are learning to vote. ]]> 2020-11-12 13:50:46 UTC https://padlet.com/girardistudyparty/evr8wpekao3pyt5j/wish/916402692 https://padlet.com/girardistudyparty/evr8wpekao3pyt5j/wish/916402727 My highlighted part tells us about the popularization of Jazz. During the tough times of prohibition, the speakeasies helped the creation of Jazz. Lots of Americans didn't agree with the idea of less alcohol so people began speakeasies to ignore this rule. While this was going on, Jazz became a very popular form of entertainment.]]> 2020-11-12 13:50:47 UTC https://padlet.com/girardistudyparty/evr8wpekao3pyt5j/wish/916402727 https://padlet.com/girardistudyparty/evr8wpekao3pyt5j/wish/916403127 my highlighted part was about America was try to prohibit drinking because everybody was drinking.
