Popular Culture also changed greatly as television shows acted as a popular outlet for individuals to cope with the threat from Russia. In addition, there was also a drastic revival in terms of the popularity of religion during this time due majorly in part to the fear of being attacked and people’s lives being threatened. Racial Segregation also became more and more prominent as white Americans moved into Levittowns away from the crowded cities and as African Americans began to transition from the South into cities towards the West Coast. Puerto Rican and Hispanic citizens also began to inhabit Harlem as more and more people began to move out into the suburbs away from the cities.
