In this video Heimler takes you through Unit 7 Topic 8 of the AP U.S. History curriculum which is set in period 7 (1898-1945).

In the 1920s it was a decade of cultural upheaval. Urbanization continued at a dizzying pace, largely because of people looking for jobs in industrial centers. Women increasingly found work outside the home in factories, but often were paid a fraction of their male counterparts. Immigrants also continued to arrive in America and that led to yet another nativist backlash.

Additionally, it was a period of shifting values, and no event put this more on display than the Scopes Monkey Trial in 1925. Here, the main contention was whether Darwin's theory of evolutionary beginnings had any place in school curricula. But that argument was more of a proxy battle for the larger ideological battle between modernists and fundamentalists.

Notes for when I come back for review
 
opportunities for women, migrants, immigrants cos shift of more ppl living in cities

women
- those living in urban centers got workforce work (nurse, teach)
^ unskilled labor jobs in factories too (lower wages )
Flappers: symbol of women's liberation
^cut hair short, smoked and drank in public

immigrants
-faced nativism backlash with influx of immigrants coming in
^ fear they would take away jobs and pollution of white race

led to quota acts that restricted immigration cos nativists were whiny
- Emergency Quota Act 1921
- National Orgins Act 1924

migrants - African American population moved north + culture+ jazz = Harlem renaissance

lost generation; group of writers
^ wrote about persuasive materialism that plagued american culture and why ww I was smh/wasteful

modernists; urban protestants
- accepted changing culture
- respected gender roles and abided by darwinism

fundamentalists ; rural protestants
- no abide to changes
- condemned degradation of morals seen in the city
- took bibles very seriously

^ Scopes Monkey Trial ( clash between modernist and fundamentalists)
- basically a Mr. Scopes started teaching Darwin and got arrested cos that was illegal
- result; Darwin looked like it was unable to defend itself against onslaught of modernism ?

^ overall result on America: modernism better over fundamentalists

Thank you once again for a great video. My comment is that although you talk about technological advances and about women's rights, you do not refer to the cause and effect relationship between them. So I will.

Indoor plumbing and electricity enabled washing machines, vacuum cleaners, stoves and other home labor-savings devices which gave women free time that they did not previously have. Modern safety bicycles enabled women to use that free time to go places and do things such as meet up with other women to organize for women's suffrage and other rights. Technology enabled the women's rights movement.

We see the same effect of technology in the 1960's. The development of the birth control pill enabled the "sexual revolution" and a further stage in the movement for women's rights. But that is outside of the period under discussion.

I am glad this video had the "*immigrates" because 2 videos he said "Migration is comming into the country and Migration is moving within the country" I knew what he meant but I thought I was going insane and replayed it 10 times to try to figure it out, lol he doesnt like immigration its always migration and migration
