In the beginning i think it should be in slow motion until the music picks up and when it does pick up Zack should be grabbing Jon Jon's arm throwing him off of Chaves. I think that if we did it like this it would look really great.

Also we need to have different facial expressions when the action breaks out of slow motion. Everyone needs to cheer louder and differently and we need some different levels.

The International Jew is a collection of propaganda against Jews in an effort to shame them into hiding their religion. It was released in 4 volumes: The World's Foremost Problem, Jewish Activities in the United States, Jewish Influences in American Life, and Aspects of Jewish Power in the United States. The Jewish world was outraged and despite thousands of complaints Ford kept attaking Jews into the late '20. Finally on July 16, 1927 Ford issued a mass apology letter to all Jews, but some believe that Ford did not write or sign the apology and therefore made it void.

The Prohibition was a period of nearly fourteen years in the U.S. It led to the first and only time an Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was repealed.
By 1916, over half of the U.S. states already had statutes that prohibited alcohol. In 1919, the 18th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which prohibited the sale and manufacture of alcohol, was ratified. It went into effect on January 16, 1920.
While it was the 18th Amendment that established Prohibition, it was the Volstead Act (passed on October 28, 1919) that clarified the law.
There were, however, several loopholes for people to legally drink during Prohibition. For instance, the 18th Amendment did not mention the actual drinking of liquor. Since Prohibition went into effect a full year after the 18th Amendment's ratification, many people bought cases of then-legal alcohol and stored them for personal use.

The Dillingham Commision was a special congressional committee formed in
February 1907. The Commission was to have a restriction of the ammount of immigrants annually. It allowed only 3 percent of the total number of people from that country living in the U.S.

Hasidic Jews are an important part of this play because Shylock, his daughter, and several other characters in the play are Hasidic Jews. The Jewish race in general was treated terribly during Shakespeare's time; as well as in the 20's. They were hated by various groups of people. Jews were treated much like the African Americans during the Civil Rights movement, if not worse.

In the 1920's tourism was at its peak in Atlantic City, many people called it Atlantic City's "Golden Age". Even though this was during the prohibition there was still a lot of drinking and gambling going on secretly, which is one of the main reasons that tourism was so big at that time.
