Prohibition is the era in American history when the sale, disruption, and manufacturing of alcohol was illegal. Since selling alcohol was illegal, anyone that wanted to get alcohol was now breaking the law. However whenever there is a good/resource people want, even if it is illegal, they will pay a significant amount of money for it.

When this is the case, people will risk almost anything to make a huge profit. This is why crime and violence increase during Prohibition. Organized crime rings, lead by people like Al Capone, start to form. Due to the high demand of alcohol by American citizens, there became a huge competition between different organized crime groups for customers. Rival gangs would end up in shootouts (like the Valentine's Day Massacre).

Answer:I would say 3 is the answer. There was still plenty of racial tension Stateside; in fact, as AAs began serving in the military and coming back home, their renewed cries for equality began the early roots of the final stages of the Civil Rights Movement.

They also began protesting more actively because those who stayed Stateside and took up jobs vacated by servicemen felt angered at being forced to give up their jobs at the end of the war.

I hope I answer your question.
