what are the 3 activities were americans interested in the 1920's?

Answer 1

In the 1920s radio was a big attraction, the silent film industry was in full steam. In the early 20s the United States was recovering from WWI and also prohibition was in full swing. So therefore, most of them were probably trying to find entertainment somehow. Also, aviation was new. There was barnstorming (aerobatics). It was almost an "age of enlightenment" for many. Then the big "Wall Street Crash" in 1929. My guess would be radio, news events, the movies, and just trying to make a living.

Answer 2

I would have to guess it would be going to the movies, listening to music and dancing.

At the movies, people went to see film stars such as Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton, Mary Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks, Rudolph Valentino, just to name a few. This was also the era when sound was introduced to the movies and people loved it.

In the world of music, most people were listening to jazz. The first commercial radio station, KDKA, was started in Pittsburgh. Duke Ellington, Paul Whiteman and Leo Reisman were just a few of the composers of this time period. Al Jolson, Rudy Vallee, Ted Lewis were just a few of the popular vocalists of this time.

Dancing became really popular during this time period. Ballrooms had dance contests and dance halls started to rise, including the Cotton Club. Also a few dance crazes came into vogue, including the Charleston, Breakaway and the Lindy Hop.
