How did reformers want to prohibit alcohol?
Reformers aimed to prohibit alcohol primarily through the temperance movement, which advocated for reducing or eliminating alcohol consumption due to its perceived negative effects on society, including crime, poverty, and family breakdown. They employed strategies such as public awareness campaigns, petitions, and lobbying for legislation. The culmination of these efforts led to the passage of the 18th Amendment in 1920, which instituted Prohibition in the United States, making the production, sale, and transportation of alcohol illegal. However, the movement faced significant backlash and was ultimately repealed in 1933 due to widespread noncompliance and unintended consequences.
