Legalization of Prohibition

On this day in 1919, Prohibition was legalized with the ratification of the 18th Amendment to the Constitution.

In December, the Biden administration reached an agreement with Mexico to restart the program and has continued to employ the controversial Title 42 law to […]

On this day in 1944, civil rights activist, writer, and professor Angela Davis was born. In 1970, the FBI added her to their Ten Most Wanted List based on false charges.

The Supreme Court later upheld a similar, updated ban. The Biden administration rescinded the policy as one of its first executive actions following the inauguration, but the date reminds us of our […]
