Historical
Commemoration
December
5 marks
"Repeal
Day,"
the
anniversary
of the
end of
Prohibition
in the
United
States.
Michigan
was the
first
state to
ratify
the
repeal
amendment,
and
Prohibition
was
officially
repealed
on
December
5, 1933.
Michigan
church,
business,
and
community
leaders
had been
working
to ban
alcohol
since
1852,
and
Michigan
approved
a
prohibition
amendment
in 1916,
making
it the
first
state to
do so.
By the
time
national
Prohibition
took
effect,
Detroit
and
Michigan
had
already
developed
sophisticated
bootlegging
and
smuggling
networks
that
operated
across
the
Detroit
River.
