18th amendment


"The United States Constitution effectively established the prohibition of alcoholic beverages in the United States by declaring the production, transport, and sale of alcohol illegal."

Meaning: This amendment was developed in the 1900s to basically prohibit or not sell alcohol and if anyone did it was illegal at that time and you would probably get jail time or have your establishment shut down.

I chose this picture because it sums up what the amendment is by showing an alcoholic beverage with a banned signed over it.

I chose this second picture because it shows the people of the united states fighting for what they want which is all through American history. With their protesting, this amendment is somewhat gone alcohol isn't illegal but you just have to be 21.
