Influential event: Laws are passed to disenfranchise African Americans in the South in 1900.

1910's

Literary title: "Baseball's Sad Lexicon" by Franklin Pierce Adams (1910)

Influential event: The Chicago Cubs won the National League pennant four times from 1906-1910.

Connection: The poem is connected to the Cubs winning the National League pennant four times from 1906-1910. It is written to reflect the feelings of a New York Giants fan because the Cubs often defeated the Giants on the way to their victories.

1920's

Literary title: "Darkwater: Voices from Within the Veil" by W.E.B. Du Bois (1920)

Influential Event: The Ku Klux Klan had its biggest event in 1925, in which they marched down Pennsylvania Avenue, Washington.
