One of my favorite ideologies I've seen is the idea that, trust gives freedom and leniency, If the parents give a curfew to come home from a party at say 11, and you keep it most of the time and you make sure they know when you have to break said curfew, they will usually allow it since you usually keep it. Eventually the parents can trust you enough to basically not have a curfew.

Funny thing is, women having power wasn't as big a deal in many states west of the Mississippi River. Argonia, Kansas actually elected a female mayor, Susanna Salter, in 1887 and other western localities even elected all-female town councils partially because they were fed up with blatant corruption or crime and thought women as the "fairer and more virtuous" sex would surely bring more honesty and order. Iowa also allowed women to become lawyers from the 1870s onward!

There's one story I like regarding Carrie Nation. A saloon owner in Oklahoma invited Carrie to speak at his business, but she had to promise not to break his bottles. She broke them anyway. After this rampage the saloon owner then made a sign, "All Nations Welcome Except Carrie." It became a slogan, and saloons started to buy them and hang them in their taverns as a reminder to their patrons to be thankful that Carrie isn't here and that they can enjoy their drinks in peace. lol

My paternal grandparents made beer and wine in their basement. Well, actually, my grandmother made the beer and wine from recipes passed down through her family. My grandfather owned a produce store so he could supply my grandmother whatever she needed. The local ice cream truck driver supplied the empty root beer bottles for my grandmother to bottle the beer and wine in. My dad recalled hearing “pop-pop-pop” noises at 1 AM from the beer bottles that were over-carbonated. It was a great business model. My grand father could write off whatever produce was used as spoilage, the ice cream man sold adult root beer as well as kids root beer so everything was listed as root beer. No doubt they supplied some local speakeasies. My grandmother even had a potato beer recipe.

Fun fact: when prohibition was abolished, the people who ran moonshine in their cars, which were heavily modified to outrun police vehicles, figured the best thing to do with the vehicles was race them, which eventually led to Stock Car Racing.

Cool little fact, my great grandmother, Ran a little restaurant in deep Chicago, and every day according to her testimony, Al Capone himself would walk in, order something and call her “toots”

Fun fact: In The Narrative Life of Frederick Douglass, Douglass explains how slave masters gave their slaves uncanny amounts alcohol and other guilty pleasures to disgust themselves with what freedom has to offer; this also disgusted them with freedom itself.

A fact about the moonshine stuff: during prohibition, many moonshine runners had tuned up cars to outrun the police. After prohibition, they had no need to run from the police to sell it, so they started racing each other for money and respect. In 1948, a group of men got together in a hotel at Daytona Beach to establish a sanctioning body for these early stock car racing events. That sanctioning body became what we call NASCAR

Meanwhile: *his arms turn to jelly and his neck doesn’t exist anymore*

You forgot about one thing, Al Capone was done in by his own lawyer, a certain EJ O’Hare, Who inspired his son, Edward Butch O’Hare, to become a fighter pilot during WWII, Butch then managed to stop an entire Japanese task force of 8 Betty bombers from hitting his aircraft carrier, The USS Lexington. He shot down three bombers, and spooked the rest of the pilots so much that they all missed the carrier! And that’s how we got O’Hare airport.

Those shacks set up in parks and other places are called Hoovervilles

So basically this was a "You weren't supposed to do that" moment on a nationwide scale.

This video from OverSimplified is such a fun and entertaining way to learn about the complex history of Prohibition! I loved watching the humorous and lighthearted animations, and it was great to see how the complicated political and social environment of the 1920s was presented in such an accessible manner. I especially enjoyed the comedic delivery and creative use of imagery to illustrate the various aspects of Prohibition. This video is a great way to learn more about a significant and often overlooked period in American history.
