The 1920s was known as The Roaring Twenties. The '20s was a time of free-wheeling and dealing, free flow of money, and prosperity for many. However, for the poor, the 1920s was a continuation of poverty and struggling.
In the 1920s, the United States passed the Immigration Act of 1924, also known as the Johnson-Reed Act. This legislation established national origin quotas, restricting the number of immigrants allowed entry based on their country of birth. The quotas favored Western and Northern European immigrants while severely limiting immigration from Southern and Eastern Europe, as well as Asia.
