The 1920s, often referred to as the "Roaring Twenties," witnessed significant social changes, notably the rise of consumerism, cultural dynamism, and a challenge to traditional norms. This decade, characterized by economic prosperity following World War I, saw the birth of jazz music, flapper culture, and the proliferation of the automobile and radio. Women's suffrage gained momentum, culminating in the U.S. passing the 19th Amendment in 1920, granting women the right to vote. The era also experienced a cultural clash between modernity and conservatism, evidenced by the Harlem Renaissance and Prohibition, reflecting the complexities of societal change during this vibrant period.
