The Twenty-First Amendment: The End of Prohibition | American Craft: What Beer Can Teach Us About Well-Crafted Laws

Author: The Federalist Society June 9, 2021 Duration: 7:09
In 1933, the Twenty-First Amendment to the US Constitution was ratified, which repealed the Eighteenth Amendment, the amendment that mandated a nationwide prohibition on alcohol.

In this Cutting Room Floor episode, we feature author and historian Garrett Peck, who was featured in our film, “American Craft: What Beer Can Teach Us About Well-Crafted Laws,” on the Twenty-first Amendment. We’ve saved this history of the Twenty-First Amendment from the cutting room floor for the second episode of the Cutting Room Floor edition of the FedSoc Films Podcast.
