The medium may have changed, but 1920s USA was still in the middle of legally mandated racial segregation; close to the beginning of women’s voting; and communism, trade unions, and taxation/redistribution were certainly still topics of discussion.
While I suspect that all the info I have about what people actually thought of those things is biased by the beliefs of the people telling me today, the issue of taxation and wealth redistribution was listed in my GCSE (UK highschool) history of Great Depression USA and the transition from Hoover to Roosevelt.
