The 1920's was a happy and prosperous time for the U.S and it kept everyone employed and working, but most of all it came with a lot of changes. Before the 1920's Women had very few rights, they were pretty much treated as sub humans in many aspects of life. For the first time ever in the 1920's in America they were allowed to vote and make decisions for themselves it seemed. This change made a drastic change for the men as the women voted for the ban of Alcohol. The main reason why they voted for this change was due to the way they were being treated by men who were under the influence. As well as this, jazz music made its debut in the music world. Although it was very popular it was also seen as being mostly "black music" so how people listened to it/ who listened to it caused for a lot of trouble. The clothing choice was also a lot more slack. Women started wearing short loose fitting dresses instead of the traditional long ones. Indeed this was the beginning of something big for the American people.
