Everything Everywhere Daily - Prohibition (Encore)

On January 16, 1919, the 18th Amendment to the US Constitution was passed. It banned the manufacture, sale, and transportation of alcohol. 

The path to the 18th Amendment was something that was almost a century in the making, and once it was passed, it was widely ignored both illegally and through numerous legal loopholes. 

Finally, after being in place for almost 14 years, it was repealed with overwhelming popular support using a constitutional method that has never been used before or since.

Learn more about prohibition, how it came about, and how it ended on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
