Question

While many did experience the positive effects of the “Roaring 20’s” many had a much different experience. Explain how the lives of African Americans and immigrants were during the 1920’s. Be as specific as possible!!! Your response should be no less than 150 words!

Answer 1

The African Americans in the roaring 20s were treated unfairly and badly. Slavery was a problem in the 20s and African Americans were kicked out of their homes and lost jobs. Many African Americans worked on plantations and were living in harsh conditions. Immigrants also worked on plantations and were refused many jobs due to their background. Many immigrants had a hard time finding jobs and being able to support their family. The stock market crash made it harder for immigrants and African Americans to live. More people were kicked out of their homes due to the stock market crash and many people lost their lives because they were poor and did not have the funds to support their families.
