Question

Exploring the question about what made Swing popular in the 1930s requires evaluating historical context and the distinctive features commonly associated with that era.
Option 1: 'mafia-run speakeasies, Prohibition, the sale of records' While Prohibition and speakeasies were prominent in the early 1930s, Swing’s rise is not primarily attributed to mafia-run venues or Prohibition-era commerce, and the emphasis on the sale of records alone does not capture the social dance culture that defined Swing.
Option 2: 'Swing dancing, touring, live radio broadcasts' This choice aligns with core cultural elements of Swing: people dancing to Swing music, bands touring to perform for audiences across cities, and radio broadcasts bringing big-band sounds into homes, cars, and public spaces, which greatly amplified its popularity.
Option 3: 'touring, racially integrated bands, Prohibition' Touring is accurate, and racially integrated bands were a factor in Swing’s development, but Prohibition is not a defining element of Swing’s popularity, and the combination here overstates the role of integration relative to broader mass-media and entertainment factors.
Option 4: 'mafia-run speakeasies, live TV broadcasts, the Harlem Renaissance' Live TV broadcasts were not a factor in the 1930s Swing boom (television was not yet widespread for entertainment), and while the Harlem Renaissance preceded Swing and influenced American culture, it is not a direct descriptor of Swing’s popular mechanisms in the 1930s.
In summary, the most comprehensive and accurate set of factors that explain Swing’s popularity in that decade centers on active dancing, touring performance circuits, and the reach of music via live radio, which collectively helped Swing become a national and mass phenomenon.
