    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

      They called my grandmother Bobbie, because she burned her hair trying to curl it with an iron, and had to cut it in a bob. She kept it cut like that the rest of her life. 😊

    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.

    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.

    My grandmother was born in 1908. She was a flapper and I love how beautiful her clothing is in pictures. I recall her putting on 78 records and playing 20s music. She showed me the Charleston. Her dates in the 1920s usually involved bootleg hooch. She and my grandfather married in 1927.

    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.'

      @@mackbolan5126 I didn't forget penicillin but made a conscientious decision not to include it, as it didn't have any impact on society until it was mass produced in the 1940s. Insulin, on the other hand, was being mass produced in late 1923 and had a huge effect on mid and late 1920's society.

    My father's grandparents grew up in late twenties. They told me they had good times but the Great Depression tainted any good memories they had of the decade and they never wanted to talk to me about it. They told me I would be better off learning about the 1930s because that's when they found out what was really happening in the U.S.

    • @PungiFungi

      The Great Depression indeed brought the 1920s to a crashing end and I am sure some people viewed it as a form of divine punishment for the "debauchery" that the country was indulging in.

    My great grandmother was born in 1905 snd 17, 1922, she was a divorced single mother. Her first husband married another woman with her marriage license. She was a flapper then. I've seen pictures of her and I'm the copy of her. She passed nine months before i was born. I was given her name and from what I was told we're not that different.

    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.

    There was so much about the 1920s that was iconic, which you covered here. I'm fascinated by that decade...love the swing music and atmosphere of the 40's too. But there's something about the joyous freedom of the 20's which is only comparable to the hippy/bohemian movement of the 1960's I think. Or maybe that's just me. 😊

    If you like the 20s, I recommend Scorcese's "Boardwalk Empire" -- pretty good drama that's very authentic to the time, they even have the huge dollar bills... when Buscemi's character peels a couple off for his wife I wondered how he could fit those bills in his pocket!

    The art/design style you described from 1925 on was called the Streamline Style or Art Moderne. Art Deco coexisted, but it was more feminine, with round roses, fountains, weeping willows, peacocks, fans, etc. It had a debt to Art Nouveau of the prior decades. Streamline/Moderne was based on speed, the zig zag, skyscrapers, machines. Both styles incorporated Egyptian motifs.

    One of the greatest things about the 1920s was America's manufacturing dominance during that time. The majority of radios, cars, appliances and gadgets were manufactured in factories throughout the country. A lot of urban centers and places no longer associated with manufactured products were the beating heart of modernity and the new technological age. The way the demand for iPhones, laptops, or OLED TVs (to say nothing of many cars) today are met by manufacturers in the far East, it must have been something when the latest and the greatest came from Detroit, Baltimore, Brooklyn, Trenton, and the like.

    My father had lots of stuff he kept in the garage that was made in the 1920s. I never got over how well they were made, with brass and other metals, and even the then-new Bakelite plastic was neat. Now everything is cheap plastic and designed to wear out quickly, requiring you to buy another. On the other hand, the 1920s was an age of extreme decadence, Jim Crow and stupid behaviors like flagpole sitting.

  • @janerkenbrack3373

    I'm going to defend Tunney in the supposed "long count" controversy.
    It wasn't actually a long count, but rather a regular count that started late. It started late because of the rules of the match.
    Dempsey was required to go to a neutral corner after he knocked down Tunney, as opposed to his traditional habit of standing over the downed fighter to hit him as he tried to stand, as he had famously done to Jess Willard. By the rules, the ref would not begin the count until the other fighter stepped to a neutral corner. The time it took for Dempsey to follow this rule accounts for all of the lost time in that incident.
    Tunney could have gotten up earlier.
    A close watching of the film shows clearly that Tunney had risen to a one leg crouch, with one knee still on the mat, and was watching the ref count and waiting until 9 to stand. This is still a practice in boxing, and many matches have a mandatory 8 count any time a fighter hits the mat.
    Two things to take away. First, that any delay in the time from knockdown to resumption of fighting was caused by Dempsey. And second, Tunney could have risen sooner, had that delay not happened.
    Gene Tunney was the better boxer.

      Racism is merely in group preference that was demonized by communists such as Leon Trotsky to set their opponents against one another.
      You are one of the useful idiots doing that for them.
      You could have a functional civilization, but you can't do that if someone who hates you might call you a racist.

    The 20s appeal a lot to me, but I realise the fun aspects applied most if you were young and rich.. Plus those years didn't last very long (and there were bad aspects too, as you mention in another video). Maybe it's partly that they are long ago enough to have a charm of byegone times, but at the same time they are somehow the start of modernity and more relatable than earlier times. Is it that the era is still just in living memory? Or that we have films and recordings from it, not just sepia photos, or paintings and statues? Whatever the reason, it feels to me the 1st World War is a huge turning point and Edwardian times seem much more distant. There are the technological aspects, with telephone, radio, cinrma etc all playing a much bigger role and motor cars becoming much more common. Also, socially it is more relatable with greater freedom for women, especially, and the fashions seem fun, not restrictive as before.

    And of course this view of the 1920s is almost fully American-centric which is no problem really as it is understandable that the roaring 20s is understood more in American terms.The only other countries iam certain about something similar like this occurring is perhaps France and Germany ,other western countries are quite absent in all this and far less non western countries.Also,the 1920s in America women's movement i suppose it failed because the later decades didnt show any real progression so much,so yeah...
