The United States’ urban transformation in the early 20th century led to the rise of a culture clash between modernists and fundamentalists. In the twenties, the country witnessed the rise of radios, urbanization, diversity, the KKK, rejection of science, and more. Since today, the United States has experienced cultural wars that are somewhat similar.
