The Prohibition Era
In the past Prohibition, also known as”The Noble Experiment”, was a time from 1920 to 1933. During this Time, the sale, manufacture, and transportation of alcoholic beverages were banned nationally.
The U.S. proposed the eighteenth amendment on December 18th, 1917. It was approved by 36 states and was ratified on January 16th, 1919. But it didn’t become effective until 1920.
Prohibition was helpful in making the amount of liquor consumed lessen. However, it more times than not crippled society, but by other means. During the Great Depression, mostly in large city’s, Prohibition became less and less popular. President Roosevelt signed into law an amendment allowing manufacture and sale of certain kinds of alcoholic beverages.
With the ratification of the 21st amendment on December 5th, 1933, the 18th amendment was repealed.
