1920s: The Roaring Twenties


Women in the 1920s were determined to get what they wanted. There countless organizations formed by women around the world including the National American Woman Suffrage Association (NAWSA). The economy was at its highest in the 1920s, the raging stock market was hailed by many as evidence of a "New Era" of economic fundamentals. North America was one of the richest places to live in with a great life style. The best music of the 1920s was Jazz. Lots of people were shopping to be in the 1920s style. Since the Tweenties was so big everyone was changing there style. And after they won the Person's case everything went all the way up for women all thanks to the five women who won the case. There names were Henrietta Muir Edwards, Nellie McClung, Louise McKinney, Emily Murphy, and Irene Parlby.
