Lightbox:  Prohibition in the United States 1920-1933

Prohibition in the United States 1920-1933 was a nationwide constitutional ban on the production, importation, transportation, and sale of alcoholic beverages. This era, also known as the Noble Experiment, aimed to reduce crime, corruption, and social issues associated with alcohol consumption. However, it led to the rise of bootlegging and speakeasies, ultimately proving ineffective. The 18th Amendment, which enforced Prohibition, was repealed in 1933 with the ratification of the 21st Amendment.
