I Don't WANT to know the "bad things"!! This video is perfect!

This was a great, fun and informative show💞Thank You 🙏🏻💐

I was 14 in 1969. My great grandmother (b1904) was still alive. One Saturday morning she and I were watching Soul Train and she shouted: they're doing the Black Bottom! The BB is more a dance routine than eg, The Twist or Charleston. The BB is akin to a Cake Walk in that both derive from minstrels and both were considered politically incorrect by the 1950s and beyond.

The 19th amendment was, and remains, the greatest mistake in American history. We repealed the 20th. Let's get to work on the 19th! FOR THE CHILDREN!!!

She was gorgeous, no doubt about it.

What is the large city at the beginning of the video? Also five ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars for channel thanks

Before this video, I never noticed how Coolidge's time as president parallels LBJ's 40 years later: Succeeded a president who died in office (1923/1963), elected in his own right (1924/1964), refused to run for another term (1928/1968); died four years after leaving office (1933/1973).

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤❤✌✌🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

My grandparents got engaged in 1924 and married in 1925. I have a picture of their engagement. My grandfather is sitting on the running board of a Model T. My grandma is sitting on his lap. She has her arm around my grandpa’s neck. They are both laughing.

1:56 "She could be labelled a flapper..." without even one single solitary flap.

A really excellent overview of the decade! Thanks! A question. What is the music on the video opening? I rather like it.

It was a great decade for diabetics after 1922, with the discovery of a practical method to produce insulin. Prior to that, diabetes was a death sentence. Insulin was arguably the greatest medical advance of the 1920s.'

It is to easy to cherry pick historical nuggets from any era. Don't forget: the financial exuberance led to the 1929 stock market crash. Prohibition led to an increase in crime and corruption. On the other hand, I remember seeing a picture of my great-grandmother, who lived in a rural area of the United States, with short hair and a typical late 1920s hat. Eg . The flapper style!!

The Black Bottom (we don't say it anymore but...) was called the Negro Charleston in parts of the country... racism sucks but made it less talked about in the 30's and 40's and made it fade away. This of course is based on South Eastern ladies born in the 00's and 10's

Aesthetics? Sure the aesthetics were great, I'm also a fan but a golden age? Far from it. Rampant racism, sexism, homophobia, Anti-Semitism, wealth inequality, etc. Black Americans were being lynched from lamp posts, the Tulsa race massacre happened at this time. So let's not overly romanticize the time period.

Roaring Twenties --- and 100 years later we have what I call the Whoring Twenties.

Цікаве інформативне та пізнавальне відео. Дякую ❤️

Excellent video! Your videos where you read a magazine or newspaper article are great, but I absolutely love your original videos - they are so well done! Thanks for all of the videos you make and post!

It wasn't great for Foundational Black Americans. Cut the check. FBAB4U

The 1920s, such a different different era.✈🛩

I really like the 1920s and the 1930s especially polish tango

Thanks for noting the best blues singer ever, Bessie Smith. Thankfully I found so much of her music for free to download from the Library Of Congress.

I'd really like to see you post a video explaining your personal interest in the 1920's. It always fascinates me how people came to develop their passions.

I am a Korean in the 1920s in America, where I always feel a faint longing. Ever since I was young, I really wanted to know and liked that time. Currently, I am very interested in the 1910s, from just before World War I to about 12-13 years in 1926.

Great job man. Always impressed by your work.

You forgot airships,

Always liked the picture of my Grandmother from the 20s, she wasn't a flapper, but she did follow her heart and make her own decisions, for which, I am truly grateful

What is the source of the image of the group at 4:20? Its a striking one

Thanks for the vid! Enjoying while sipping my morning coffee. 😊 The 20s really do seem like they would've been some of the best years to be alive in America. I'm glad you create this kind of content so that we can all enjoy even a small view of the times. ❤

Hello good man, I like your channel and I have a request. Could you do your effective research and make a video about the stock market boom of the mid 1920s? I would like to know about how people got excited about the stock market and started participating in it. It was the biggest stock market participation by retail investors.

The 1920's is one of my favorite eras after the Edwardian era 💖

I think Henry Layer did the Villisca Axe Murder then committed this one.

Your videos are great! what an interesting article

This man was a serial murderer.

Awe, she was the cutest little girl. Awe precious sorry she went through so much.

great job

Sounded like sarcasm to me. Do nothing, be safe, live a long boring life (me). Do everything, live short exciting life. (everyone else) :D

White People are still taken advantage of Native Americans trying to still there business and move them off there land. They have a right to speak out against it .

Great prose!

What was that what child what town you got to do better than that

Lol, that's the life motto of fb!!! Show us your nice lifes, you non-naughty children!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍

“Vanzetti was found concealing a revolver of the same make and model, a .38 caliber nickle-plated Harrington & Richardson revolver, that was carried by the guard who was killed in the Braintree murder. The guard’s revolver wasn’t recovered at the scene and was suspected to have been taken off his body by the robbers. Vanzetti was also carrying 4 shotgun shells that matched those recovered at the Bridgewater crime scene, though no shotgun was found and he didn’t appear to own a shotgun.” They were both guilty

Meaning unclear - more lines needed

I love this channel.

Good stuff! Check out my book on Harding: Jazz Age President: Defending Warren G. Harding. I cover this speech and many other issues that he doesn't get the credit he rightly deserves.

love this channel!

The same paranonia existed for the early film performers. Most came from the theatre, where they got immediate feedback from a live audience. This interaction was missing in the studio, before a camera. Still, this is strange article coming from a novellst, who gets no instant feedback from his audience. He must have been used to wondering, "Is anybody reading?" The same question or audience will arise anew with every new form of public media.

Imagine how actors reacted to the microphone.

So many of the silent stars lost everything either when the stock market crashed or when talkies came in & there time was past. Most of these stars didn’t have business managers per se. They didn’t buy a home in cash, purchased magnificent homes with mortgages they couldn’t pay or the upkeep they could not afford.

1927 my father was 5 & my mother was 3 .
