The decade is also seen as a period of rising intolerance and isolation. This era was known for the rise of the Ku Klux Klan, the anti-radical hysteria of the Palmer raids, restrictive immigration laws and prohibition. This was also the jazz age where African Americans were able to express their ideas and culture through music. It was also the flapper era where women began to break out of their stay on home lives. They started to dress more revealing, cut their hair, and also go to bars and such at night.
