    A film titled, Life in Sacramento-1950’s, used propaganda to persuade people to move to Sacramento after World World War II. The film imagined Sacramento as metropolis for jobs, housing, life, and work. Sacramento was also promoted as a progressive and community oriented town with a great night and day life. This was targeted a white audience because of the characters depicted in the show were predominately white living in the suburbs.

    There were many changes in Canadian society following World War II. The 1970’s saw the growth of the largest population in the history of the world. With 6 million children being born, the “baby-boomer” generation would change Canada, as we know it. The rapid growth of the baby-boomer generation also led to the fact that women now had to look after their babies at home and also their husbands instead of working like they were during the World War II. Women wanted to get their rights back and gain more respect out of people. Together along with advancements in the population, Canadian society would change with the growth of our post World War II economy. In order to understand the changes in Canadian society following the Second World War, we first investigate the role of the baby-boomers, as well as the impact the women had on the society.…

    America’s familial values have evolved over time in order to allow the new found societal norms to take place, but haven’t exactly changed. Even though this country is in a completely different place than it was in the 1950’s somehow these stubborn ideals have endured the test of time, like how women belong in the kitchen taking care of the children and men provide for the family, or how divorce is frowned upon even when a majority of marriages end in separation or divorce. 1950 was a tough time for the United States and during this time a sparkle of comedic gold appeared that went by the name of I Love Lucy, similarly in 2009 the end of the Great Recession another nugget of genius showed up, Modern Family. While these shows came about out of two very different points in times and in two very different ways, both strived to achieve the same goal, to show America that being normal is okay and open up the minds of those who are caught up in the outdated traditional family values.…

Major events took place in this society and changed things that can still be seen today, such as transportation, rights for all citizens, and the population expansion to even the outermost areas of the nation.

    A pivotal decade in America’s past was undoubtably the 1920’s. Many inventions helped further the advancement of America and eased the work load off of many home owners.
