During her adult life Nation had seen two marriages ruined by alcoholism, so she was well aware of the negative effects that alcohol could have on families. Nation entered the temperance movement in 1890 in response to a US Supreme Court decision that weakened prohibition laws. She believed that because the sell of alcohol was illegal she was within her rights to destroy the saloons. Either alone or accompanied by a group of hymn singing nuns, and dressed in stark black and white clothing, Nation would march into saloons and proceed to pray, sing hymns, and brutally smash the bar with her hatchet. This is why she was given the nickname, "Hatchet Granny." During her hatchet days she would frequently be in and out of jail, getting arrested and sentenced, then turning around and paying the fines with the money that she made selling hatchets to her fans. At times she was making upwards of $300 a week. After her hatchet days she proceeded to be a key leader in the Temperance Movement, writing books and travelling to many American cities to speak out against alcohol.]]> 2022-02-21 19:09:52 UTC https://padlet.com/jaydaskeens1/zfc58hnofieqgzsi/wish/2059261022 heidieilrich https://padlet.com/jaydaskeens1/zfc58hnofieqgzsi/wish/2059261281 Organization founded in 1893 that increased public awareness of the social effects of alcohol on society; supported politicians who favored prohibition and promoted statewide referendums in Western and Southern states to ban alcohol.]]> 2022-02-21 19:10:06 UTC https://padlet.com/jaydaskeens1/zfc58hnofieqgzsi/wish/2059261281 heidieilrich https://padlet.com/jaydaskeens1/zfc58hnofieqgzsi/wish/2059265367 From 1893 to 1933, the Anti-Saloon League was a major force in American politics.

Along with distinct cultural consequences, the decrease in health and public safety rather backfired on prohibition because alcohol became more dangerous to consume; crime increased and became “organized”; the court and prison systems were stretched to the breaking point; and corruption of public officials was rampant. No measurable gains were made in productivity or reduced absenteeism. ]]> 2022-02-21 19:23:32 UTC https://padlet.com/jaydaskeens1/zfc58hnofieqgzsi/wish/2059275630 jaydaskeens1 https://padlet.com/jaydaskeens1/zfc58hnofieqgzsi/wish/2059277089 In the 1890's prohibition began to become successful in the rural south and in western states, prohibiting alcohol consumption.]]> 2022-02-21 19:24:55 UTC https://padlet.com/jaydaskeens1/zfc58hnofieqgzsi/wish/2059277089 heidieilrich https://padlet.com/jaydaskeens1/zfc58hnofieqgzsi/wish/2059280008 The lessons of Prohibition remain important today.
