Authors from the Lost Generation were F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ermest Hemingway. The lost generation consisted of many poets, novelists (writers, mainly) who wrote about their real war experiences. After WWI consumerism in America boomed, people overspending way more than they could earn. This was because of the drastic consumption which brought higher wages and more jobs. This made people think that America became too materialistic (fair point.) Materialism and consumerism are often the topic of lost generation writers.

The amendment was made before people of colour could vote, so it only talked about white women and men. There was a lot of backlash about women being able to vote, or do a lot of things (like wearing pants!) for purely sexist reasons. Another example of arbitrary thinking during the time was "women can't ride on a train because their organs will fly out." which was purely sexist. After this bill was passed, women could vote and had more rights.
