Where was the cultural split in the 1920s?

Answer (2)

I believe the answer would be the generation gap. During the 'roaring 20's', there was a significant cultural split between the young and the elderly Americans.

The cultural split in the 1920s in the U.S. was primarily between urban areas, which embraced progressive changes, and rural communities, which clung to traditional values. This divide manifested through differing social practices, beliefs about gender roles, and responses to modern challenges such as immigration and science. Events like the Scopes trial and the rise of nativist sentiments highlighted the tensions of this era.
