Answer 1

The two examples of resistance to change in the 1920s from the options provided are:

1. The KKK targeted more than just African Americans with its ideas of everyone’s “proper place” in society.
   This reflects a resistance to the changing social dynamics of the time, as the KKK sought to maintain traditional racial and societal hierarchies.

2. Racial segregation continued in the South.
   This also exemplifies resistance to change, as it highlights the persistence of Jim Crow laws and the refusal to embrace racial equality following the Civil War and Reconstruction.

The other options, such as the recognition of African American cultural figures and women's suffrage, indicate progress and change rather than resistance to it.
