The fear of communism resulted in Palmer raids, Nativism, and immigration quotas. These raids were lead by U.S. attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer who tried to eradicate suspected Socialists and Communists. The fear of this new ideology lead to more nativism for many Americans. Since there was a lot of new immigrants spreading into the U.S. at this time, congress was pressured by nativist ideas to set up immigration quotas to set a limit on how much people could enter. ]]> 2018-12-19 19:30:04 UTC https://padlet.com/drake_schneider024/z1smg8mw5u1k/wish/315997564 zachary_jahnz410 https://padlet.com/drake_schneider024/z1smg8mw5u1k/wish/315997658 Before this time, magazines and newspapers were various forms of news.

These revolutionary products included: vacumes, electric refrigerators, and toasters (These are still very useful products today).

To do this advertising agencies looked into phycological ways to sell their products, and they used unique slogans. ]]> 2018-12-19 20:04:30 UTC https://padlet.com/drake_schneider024/z1smg8mw5u1k/wish/316009876 zachary_jahnz410 https://padlet.com/drake_schneider024/z1smg8mw5u1k/wish/316034522 Movies started in the 1920s as a new form of art being motion pictures.
