The anti-liquor movement, primarily in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, sought to reduce or eliminate the consumption of alcohol due to its perceived negative effects on society, health, and morality. It was strongly driven by various temperance organizations, most notably the Women's Christian Temperance Union (WCTU) and the Anti-Saloon League, which argued that alcohol contributed to crime, poverty, and family neglect. This movement culminated in the Prohibition Era in the United States, marked by the 18th Amendment in 1920, which banned the manufacture, sale, and transportation of Alcoholic Beverages. However, Prohibition led to a rise in illegal activities and was eventually repealed in 1933.
