    Around 1920, the United States became more urban than rural for the first time as people migrated to cities. This migration demonstrated a conflict between traditional rural values and the emerging modern urban values of the 1920s. Traditionally, rural areas focused on production and work, saving money, and religion. Modern urban areas emphasized consumption, leisure, making money in the stock market, science, and new forms of entertainment like movies and jazz rather than traditional European music. The rise of religious fundamentalism also reflected this conflict, as fundamentalists opposed what they saw as the sins of modern life like materialism.

    The Rise of Fundamentalism


    In the 1920s a new religious wave hit
    the country: Fundamentalism.

    They also were very opposed to what
    they believed to be the sins of
    modern life.

    a way of thinking that gives too much
    importance to material possessions
    rather than to spiritual things
