THE CHANGING WAYS OF LIFE Chapter 13 Section 1 MAIN IDEA Americans experienced cultural conflicts as customs and values changed in the 1920s.

Rural and Urban Differences Between 1922-1929, migration to the cities accelerated “Cities were the place to be” New York topped the list of big cities with a population of 5.6 million Philadelphia nearly 2 million

CITY LIFE Life was different in cities than rural towns The city was a world of competition and change City dwellers tolerated drinking, gambling, and casual dating Life was fast paced

THE PROHIBTION EXPERIMENT 18th Amendment: the manufacture, sale, and transportation of alcoholic beverages were legally prohibited Reformers believed liquor to be: 1. the cause of corruption & crime 2. social problems 3. wife and child abuse 4. accidents on the job Support for amendment came from the rural South and West

SPEAKEASIES Speakeasies-to obtain liquor illegally, drinkers went underground to hidden saloons and nightclubs So called because when inside, one spoke quietly, or “easily” to avoid detection Could be found in penthouses, offices, hardware stores, and tearooms To get in you had to present a card or use a password

BOOTLEGGERS Bootlegging empire created over $60 million a year Bootleggers-smuggled liquor in from Canada, Cuba and the West Indies People distilled their own alcohol in the home Legally alcohol only allowed for medical purposes or religious purposes Prohibition led to organized crime Chicago/home of Al Capone Bootlegging empire created over $60 million a year Mid 1920’s 19% of Americans supported prohibition 18th Amendment remained until 1933; then overturned by the 21st Amendment

Science and Religion Clash Fundamentalism- protestant movement grounded in literal (nonsymbolic) interpretation of the Bible Fundamentalists believed that the Bible was inspired by God, therefore true They rejected the theory of Evolution-Charles Darwin (humans evolved from apes) They believed in the biblical creation that God made the world and all its forms in 6 days

SCOPES TRIAL 1925 Tennessee passed the nation’s first law that made it a crime to teach evolution American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) promised to defend any teacher who broke the law John T. Scopes-young biology teacher challenged the law and was arrested

Final Verdict/Conclusion ACLU hired Clarence Darrow (the most famous trial lawyer) to defend Scopes William Jennings Bryan served as special prosecutor in the case Scopes Trial was a fight over evolution and the role of science and religion in public schools Scopes was found guilty Fined $100

Conclusion THE CLASH OVER EVOLUTION, THE PROHIBITION EXPERIMENT, AND THE EMERGING URBAN SCENE ALL WERE EVIDENCE OF THE CHANGES AND CONFLICTS OCCURING DURING THE 1920’S!
