the roaring 20s~
2. The twenties were the years when drinking was against the law, and the law was a bad joke because everyone knew of a local bar where liquor could be had. They were the years when organized crime ruled the cities, and the police seemed powerless to do anything against it. Classical music was forgotten while jazz spread throughout the land, and men like Bix Beiderbecke, Louis Armstrong, and Count Basie became the heroes of the young. The flapper was born in the twenties, and with her bobbed hair and short skirts, she symbolized, perhaps more than anyone or anything else, America's break with the past. From Kathleen Yancey, English 102 Supplemental Guide (1989): 25.
During the twenties, drinking was against the law. But, it was a joke to the people and everyone knew of at least one local bar where there was liquor. Organized crime ruled the cities during this time as well and the policemen were basically powerless to do anything against it. Jazz was spread out everywhere and Classical was forgotten as the new faces of Bix Beiderbecke, Louis Armstrong and count Basie took the stage. Flapper came along as well and was a symbol of the break with the past with their bobbed hair and short skirts. (Yancey, 25)
