Speakeasies are private and secret salons that in order to enter you had to know the "password". Speakeasies came about after Prohibition became in effect causing many legal businesses to shut down. Men and women wanted a place to drink without worry and enjoy themselves. This was a social aspect of the "Roaring Twenties" it was both negative and positive. The negative side of Speakeasies was that criminals were drawn to them. The article, "The Speakeasies of the 1920s", says, "Al Capone, leader of the Chicago Outfit, made an estimated $60 million a year supplying illegal beer and hard liquor to thousands of speakeasies he controlled in the late 1920s." (para, 3). Many criminals like Al Capone sold and ran many speakeasies. Speakeasies caused the crime rate to increase tremendously. A positive of Speakeasies is that it offered a place for women and men to come together have a good time and have jobs. The article, "The Speakeasies of the 1920s", says, "With thousands of underground clubs, and the prevalence of jazz bands, liquor-infused partying grew during the “Roaring Twenties,” when the term “dating” – young singles meeting without parental supervision — was first introduced." (para, 4). Women and men were getting more chances for work like dancers, singers, and bands. It was also bringing women and men together where everyone could come and drink and have a good time.]]> 2021-09-27 15:42:19 UTC https://padlet.com/williamrodgers1/f404729ij6tuxg4m/wish/1771612936 1693516 https://padlet.com/williamrodgers1/f404729ij6tuxg4m/wish/1771613642 The stock market during the 20's was a purely economic positive.

This caused the rise of an underground economic system that negatively impacted the United States. The mafia began with selling alcohol illegally to people around the nation. The mafia's 'business' caused the U.S. government to lose profit because of money transferring in underground systems.

The flappers were a social and political topic. They were a positive impact to the "Roaring Twenties". In 1920, women were allowed to vote which gave the opportunity for women's independence to step forward. With the explosion of jazz music, alcohol, and wide set stages flapper girls appeared. Flapper girl's wore fashionable dresses, high heels, full makeup, and usually wore shorter hairstyles. Flapper girls were the symbol of a stylish young party girl and practiced a sexual freedom that shocked many at the start. Flapper's positively impacted the era since they helped the embrace of women's sexuality. ]]> 2021-09-27 15:42:39 UTC https://padlet.com/williamrodgers1/f404729ij6tuxg4m/wish/1771614035 1933104 https://padlet.com/williamrodgers1/f404729ij6tuxg4m/wish/1771614077 The 18th amendment is political positive because it decreased the amount of people drinking and helped people with drinking problems stop drinking since it was illegal to buy them. https://constitutioncenter.org/interactive-constitution/interpretation/amendment-xviii/interps/169]]> 2021-09-27 15:42:39 UTC https://padlet.com/williamrodgers1/f404729ij6tuxg4m/wish/1771614077 20050910 https://padlet.com/williamrodgers1/f404729ij6tuxg4m/wish/1771614863 The women's suffrage movement is the right of women to vote in electrons.

By August 18th, 1920 the 19th Amendment was established and allowed American women to have all the rights and responsibilities of citizenship.

Speakeasies and rum-runners made millions selling alcohol, while bootlegging gang organizations made even more. Bootlegging was a social and economic negative trend considering that some gangs became infamous and outlasted the prohibition law. They also made high amounts of money behind the scenes.

After the war, new tabloid newspapers launched which achieved large circulation through covering crime, sports, and scandals. After reaching millions of consumers by reporting such stories, they hired sports figures and movie stars to promote products from beauty to tobacco. Thanks to advertising, business became America's secular region. "Coca-Cola serves as a good example of how product advertising changed over this forty-year period. When first introduced in the 1880s, the product was marketed as a medicine, with claims that it cured headaches, and that it "revived and sustained" a person. Seeking to build repeat business and brand loyalty, by the 1920s the company emphasized it as a refreshment and a "fun food". Consumers demanding the cola at soda fountains could pressure storeowners to stock it, or risk losing their business." http://www.eyewitnesstohistory.com/snpmech4.htm]]> 2021-09-27 15:44:59 UTC https://padlet.com/williamrodgers1/f404729ij6tuxg4m/wish/1771622304 1970186 https://padlet.com/williamrodgers1/f404729ij6tuxg4m/wish/1771623480 https://www.archives.gov/historical-docs/19th-amendment]]> 2021-09-27 15:45:06 UTC https://padlet.com/williamrodgers1/f404729ij6tuxg4m/wish/1771623480 https://padlet.com/williamrodgers1/f404729ij6tuxg4m/wish/1771623543 Society changed in the twenties; women were seen as more independent, technology advanced, and Jazz music hit off.

During The Red Scare of 1919-1920, many individuals in the U.S feared recent immigrants and dissidents would throw the U.S government. At the end of WW1, many workers joined labor unions and then labor strikes such as the Boston Police Strike in Sept 1919 also contributed to fears that radicals intended to spark a revolution. Self-proclaimed anarchists were mailing bombs to prominent Americans and the government became enraged and in response raided the headquarters of radical organizations and arrested thousands of suspected people which were then deported. https://www.mass.gov/info-details/sacco-vanzetti-the-red-scare-of-1919-1920]]> 2021-09-27 15:45:38 UTC https://padlet.com/williamrodgers1/f404729ij6tuxg4m/wish/1771625394 https://padlet.com/williamrodgers1/f404729ij6tuxg4m/wish/1771628552 19th amendment ]]> 2021-09-27 15:46:25 UTC https://padlet.com/williamrodgers1/f404729ij6tuxg4m/wish/1771628552 2134329 https://padlet.com/williamrodgers1/f404729ij6tuxg4m/wish/1771628568 I believe that the Tulsa race riot was social negative effects. the Tulsa race riot was a massacre in which a white mob attacked residents, homes, and businesses in the predominantly Black Greenwood neighborhood of Tulsa, Oklahoma.  This was a negative effect on social events because this event is not showing unity it's showing the difference between the two races and showing all the negative these white people had to the black people.
