The 1920s was an exciting decade, filled with new technologies (including radio and "talking pictures"), new opportunities (women got the right to vote and began running for office), amazing events (including Charles Lindbergh's solo flight across the Atlantic), new fashions, new hit songs, new dance crazes, new slang, and even some new controversies (Prohibition, for example).
