Slide 3

Comparing to the 20s During the 20s, the debate between Religion and Science began to take heed, such as with the Scopes Trial, and generally the American people sided with religion during this time.

Slide 4

However, once the fiftys started, more and more people began to step over to Science. This is easily emphasized by the many TVs shows one sees from the fiftys onward.

Slide 10

During the 1900s, the American people stopped worshiping people who had helped America prosper, such as presidents, War Heroes, explorers, and began to worshipping people who had faced the impossible and survived. People like Babe Ruth and Amelia Earhart. People who showed determination and courage. And the traits these people had were put into the super heroes on television. The people who we look up to and show us who a hero should be.

Some such heroes

Slide 12

The hero qualities the American people began to worship in the twenties, became apparent in our TV shows during the 50s. Bravery, determination, and courage, are all what went into the heroes we know and love today, and are exactly who the American people began to worship in the 20s.

Slide 13

To conclude, the TV shows that began during the 50s, highly emphasized the changing American culture from the 20s.
