Understanding the 1920's, from this trailer. What you see is a picture of the super rich, but there was a world of immigrants....New York City was teeming with immigrants, fresh off the boats, and anxious to become part of the fabric of America. Everyone wanted a chance to work and have the good life. They left opression, they left a world without opportunity for a world wide open to start a business, and prosper. The 1920's where really interesting. Everyone should know this story...it is telling in many ways. I will tell you more in another blog, soon.
music, thoughts, books, dreams, more
Just my world of dreams, music and thoughts. Author of two books, one a novel of Love stories set in Framingham, Mass, Secrets of the Heart the 2nd book an autobiography of growing up in Framingham, Mass. Small Town America, Framingham My generation was the first teenage generation, that was when the word was coined. Ours was the generation that started cruising through town and to the drive in theater and drive in restaurant. In our area, Ernie Kampersal,from Holliston, drove his bucking car through town, picking up girls. It rose in the air, like a stallion! We went to the soda shops and played the juke boxes. It was a different town, a different time, and it belonged to us!
