The first thing that comes to my mind when thinking about the 1920s is Charlie Chapln who was rising to fame in England in movies that decade which was known as the Roaring Twenties or the Jazz Age. Americans were rising economically in the 1920s. They recover from a recession of some kind in the early 1920s which was also around the end of World War I.
Things were doing good until the rise of the Great Depression in 1929 and into the 1930s. So, I think there were 2 recessions or depressions. People generally only talk about the last one. The first one was pretty major and yet people bounced back from it. So, here is my post on a few random things from this decade, the 1920s. This is going to be a short article with a few links in order to reference each year of this decade of the nineteen-twenties.

Jazz Age
The Roaring Twenties were also known as the Jazz Age.
Roaring Twenties
The 1920s was a decade of change, when many Americans owned cars, radios, and telephones for the first time. The cars brought the need for good roads. The radio brought the world closer to home. The telephone connected families and friends.
Ku Klux Klan
By the middle of the decade, the KKK had two million members, many who believed the Klan represented a return to all the “values” that the fast-paced, city-slicker Roaring Twenties were trampling. More specifically, the 1920s represented economic and political uplift for African Americans that threatened the social hierarchy of Jim Crow oppression.
Global Warming, Climate Change
In the 1920s, they said an ice-age would kill us all. That was a century ago. Every ten years, they come out with a new lie.
1920
In 1920 the Eighteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was passed, creating the era of Prohibition. The amendment forbade the manufacture, sale, or transportation of alcoholic beverages. Many people ignored the ban, however. In 1933 the amendment was abolished, and it became the only Constitutional amendment to be repealed.

The Red Army of Russia invaded Georgia in February and March of 1921.

The world population reached 2 billion people in 1927. The world population teached 1 billion in 1804 and 3 billion in 1960.
1928
Stalin Begins Collectivization Of Agriculture which reminds me of the 2030 Great Reset because it involved moving people around, I'm talking land, farms. "Stalin in particular sought to eliminate the wealthiest peasants, known as kulaks. Generally, kulaks were only marginally better off than other peasants, but the party claimed that the kulaks had ensnared the rest of the peasantry in capitalistic relationships."
1929
April 22: Herbert Hoover, President of the United States, declares that crime is the country’s most serious problem, and warns that the country is ‘more unsafe than any other civilized country in the world.'
The Stock Market or Wall Street Crash started, they say, on The Black Tuesday, the 29th of October of 2029 or actually more so on Thursday.
