Decade - 1920s

It means the person was a witch.

In the 1900s technologies such as radio broadcasting and movies dominated american society.

They didn't make enough money to move.

The equal rights amendment The right of women to hold membership in the AFL

Well, yes. She would have been entirely ( In-Synch) with the idea of political action among women including voting. It should be carefully noted that Mrs. Low was not strictly speaking a Suffragette, but was involved as the leader of the Girl Scout movement from l9l2 until her death in l927- that was clearly a full time job!

Yes, because of the massive immigration of Europeans and other immigrants to the USA.

TIn the 1920s, the Klu Klux Klan killed and intimidated black people, targeted moonshiners and bootleggers, fought to prevent Republicans from running candidates, and opposed the Catholic church.

Rural Americans and small town residents were the staunchest supporters of Prohibition.

yes they did. there was electricity to help with more of the household chores, giving families more leisure time.

A regular pack wuz about 30 cents! Did u kno that stamps were only 2 cents back then?

During the 1920s, multiple laws were passed that did restrict immigration to the United States. Probably the most important of these laws was the Immigration Act of 1924 (Johnson-Reed Act). This act gave an immigration quota to each country. This quota was based on 2% of immigrants living in the US from any one country at the 1890 census. For instance, if there were 1 million immigrants from one country living in the United States in 1890, then after the Immigration Act, only 20,000 people from that country could come per year. This was down from the 3% that the Emergency Quota Act of 1921 set up. The Immigration Act was set up primarily to cap the growing number of Southern and Eastern European immigrants, as well as Asian immigrants. Contrary to what some may believe, Asians were never completely restricted from immigrating to the US, just from naturalized citizenship.

That he should be removed from power to Lenin

Passed by Congress June 4, 1919, and ratified on August 18, 1920, the 19th amendment guarantees all American women the right to vote. Electrical and gas mechanical appliances freed women to pursue other activities. Increased education breathed life into intellectual life and widened opportunities. These all contributed to the changing role of women in 1920s USA.

It was segregated. Black people and white people lived in their own neighborhoods, and attended separate (and not very equal) schools. Some black people found work in white-owned businesses, but many of the jobs were menial and paid low wages. A few black people were able to attend traditionally black universities and become doctors or lawyers, but again, they were expected to only work with black patients or clients. White people had more options, and could choose more career paths; there were a number of excellent universities, as well as schools to learn a trade. (Of course, not every white person got a good education. Many did not.) In North Carolina, just like in other southern states, the Ku Klux Klan was very popular with large numbers of white people, but it should be noted that not every white person sympathized with the Klan.

Interestingly, there is some evidence that black and white people did mix when it came to certain sports: there are newspaper reports of white people attending baseball and football games at the traditionally black universities. But it was rare for black people to be encouraged to attend the college sports at white universities; those who did were expected to sit in their own section.

In the United Kingdom in 1926, Scotish inventor John Logie Baird demonstrated television for the first time. It was crude, and it was mechanical, but it was an important first step for the development of this visual medium. Also in 1926, American inventor Robert F. Goddard developed and then successfully shot a liquid-fueled rocket. And another American, Francis W. Davis, invented an early version of power steering for cars. Also, while it wasn't an invention per se, in 1926 radio technology had reached a point where the first national network in the US, the National Broadcasting Company (later known as NBC), was able to make its debut.

Senator Byrd, George Wallace, and Marcus Garvey, among many others advocated for separation of the races.

It's best to set this in context by comparison with modern transport.

If you were travelling more than a few miles or so in the 1900s, the railways offered the speediest, most reliable and most comfortable of the few options - and still do - but you still had to travel between home and station at each end of the journey. And still have!

For most people in the 1900s the only road options were cycle, horse (on its back or in a carriage) or on foot - unless you were rich enough to buy one of these new-fangled motor-cars. Travelling long distances by car then was neither fast, reliable nor very comfortable, and garages (filling-stations now-called) were rather few and far between. They are going that way again, in rural areas anyway.

The Edwardian railways were more difficult to operate in bad weather then they are now. Heavy snow obviously blocks the lines, and ice blocked point and signal mechanisms; but fog was the much more common obstacle. It made it very hard for the drivers to see the signals, forcing much reduced speeds hence long delays. Nowadays, although bad Winter weather can still play havoc with schedules, the High-Speed Trains on Britain's main-line network can still maintain 100+mph running even on foggy nights.

A problem peculiar to the early American railways was the timber trestle viaduct. They were relatively easy and cheap to build with plentiful local wood, but suffered badly from fires, flood damage or decay. (The early British railways did use timber viaducts in a few places, but these were replaced fairly quickly by the much more commonly-used brick, masonry or steel structures.)

Air travel is obviously now the fastest means of actually moving - about an hour to an hour-&-a-half for roughly 400 miles from Southern English airports to Glasgow or Edinburgh depending on aeroplane type; but a law of diminishing returns sets in with decreasing flight distance, thanks to the travelling to and from the widely-scattered airports, and the requirement to arrive at the airport at least an hour before take-off.

For most journeys now, as in the 1900s, rail often gives the fastest overall journey time for most journeys of much less than perhaps 400 miles by road, rail and now air; and despite considerable negative publicity from the Press; is probably the most reliable.

For international travel, and in many cases for long distances within continents, the only way available in the 1900s was by ship; but the steam-ship by then was well developed and certainly quicker, more reliable, more comfortable, healthier and safer than their all-sail predecessors.

Tanzania was called Tanganyika Territory.

Interwar Czechoslovakia was a very successful democracy - in fact, after 1933 it was the only democracy in the region.

William J. Bryant was the Democratic Party nominee for President of the United States in 1896, 1900 and 1908, a lawyer, and the 41st United States Secretary of State under President Woodrow Wilson.

Well, first of all stop trying to cheat you worthless pieces of doodoo! Do The Work.
