Who's Scared of the Red Scare?

  • Summary

  • What did you think of todays' episode?

    I would say this is the beginning of a plethora of episodes, but we aren't trying to lie to all you good people.

    BUT!

    We are starting off with one of those glossed over points in American history. When I think about witch hunts in America, I immediately think of the Salem witch trials. However, there are other points in time, a lot more recently, that had a similar impact–The Red Scares. The Red Scare was hysteria over the perceived threat posed by Communists in the U.S. As a curious cat, I wanted to learn more about these 20th century witch trials in America and I decided I would take you all along for the ride…for better or worse. In this episode, we will touch lightly on what is communism, fear of communism, the lead up and duration of the two Red Scares, and some major players in them.
