Roaring 20s: History doesn’t repeat itself
but it often rhymes

 

Saturday Evening Post/wikipedia.com

 

1920s

 

The Roaring Twenties.

 

A hundred year ago.

 

A wild time of changes.

 

Dress went from ankle length to mini-skirts.

 

Women got the vote.

 

People danced to upbeat music like The Charleston.

 

It was a decade of millionaires and moguls.

 

Stuff that made The Great Gatsby.

 

 

 

 

 

1920

 

The decade started on the tails of the First World War (1914-1918).

 

The decade ended that Black Tuesday in October of 1929 with the stock market crash.

 

Which triggered the Great Depression (1929-1939)

 

That ended with the Second World War (1939-1945)

 

Turned the world upside down.

 

Now it's...

 

2020

 

New century.

 

New millennium.

 

We're into...

 

The Roaring 20's x 2

 

What will this decade bring?

 

As Mark Twain has been given credit for this proverbial gem:

 

History doesn’t repeat itself  

but it often rhymes

 

Hang on, friends.

 

We're in for a wild ride.
