The 1920’s was an age of dramatic social and political change, and most people knew this time as ‘the roaring twenties’. Most Americans lived in the cities rather than on farms and this was due to the nation’s total wealth was more than doubled and this economical growth took many Americans into the consumer society. Consumerism is the theory that it is economically attractive to encourage the attainment of goods and services in ever-increasing amounts. As money was something that everyone was willing to spend people would lose morality and not spend their money wisely. The prohibition of alcohol, adultery and wealth played a big part in the 1920’s which effected the importance of morality.

Mahatma Gandhi,a famous boxer, once said, “You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty.” Just because one person does something wrong or lacks morals, does not means the whole human race is bad. Sometimes as humans, people make wrong choices, which does not make them horrible, just human. The same way humans can make choices, they also have the ability to experience loss, emotions, relationships, survival, and morality. These traits are what separate humans from other living organisms. These are traits that all humans share, hence the name “shared humanity”. This can be seen in everyday life and in literature and films, such as, The Scarlet Ibis by James Hurst,

The truth is, people don’t think much about it until happens somewhere near them ‒– beyond, of course, the ones who realize the growing plight of the country we live in and thus recognizing the flawed ways of our government and society. When you grow up in Negaunee, Michigan, the most stimulating thing to happen to oneself is journeying somewhere other than Negaunee, Michigan. It made everywhere else seem exciting and new, as you might expect.

What do you think of when you hear the words “American morality”? Do you think about American families going to Sunday church? Or a society geared around respecting authority figures and police? In reality, American morality is constantly shifting with popular culture and influences. What is deemed acceptable now would be considered scandalous in past years, and what was common in the past would be considered prude in current times. For example, in the 1920s, young people were making the original shift from Victorian lifestyles to what is now known as a classic American dream with the influence of Jazz and the inventing of the automobile. Currently, American morals are being influenced and evolving because of the new musicians and rappers pushing boundaries, social media broadcasting our entire lives, and modern celebrities changing what is socially acceptable. Through these examples, we can see that even despite the differences between the generations, in both times the younger people are pushing boundaries on what is socially acceptable and allowed. American Morality is constantly shifting and some prime examples of this are the 1920s and our current times where morals are changing and creating new ways of life for the younger generation.

What happens when morality is thrown away and forgotten by future generations? In the 1920’s, America was still recovering from World War I. Many young men died in WWI, and many who survived the war were suffering from PTSD. They could not escape their own minds which were their own jails. With the recovery from the war, people had a new sense of living while they were young. They pursued drinking, sex, and other pleasures that were originally biblically and morally viewed as wrong, but it was all changing. Sheila Liming saw this change and argued, “The post-war years saw the banishment of the Victorian hourglass archetype - a move which, on the surface, appears consistent with the logic of female emancipation, and with multi-national fights for women’s suffrage during this period” (Liming 109). She clearly stated the change throughout the generations. What caused this change? Because of the horrors of WWI, women in the 1920s rejected the moral codes of the previous generations by embracing hedonism and pursuing gender equality. This resulted in the wide acceptance of women

Published in 1866, Crime and Punishment showcases the struggles of a young man attempting to find his place within society as he deals with the immoral judgement and guilt that overcame him when he murdered an older lady. Succeeding that book in 1932 Brave New World also mirrors the attempts of a man trying to find his place within a society that’s full of scientific advancement, unnatural births, hierarchy within social classes, and the use of drugs to serve as a type of happiness and religion. Both of these philosophical novels render a scene of society within their time period and, albeit in different time periods, both have similar underlying scenarios of attempting to find morals and ethical decisions.
