The Communist Party of the United States attempted to use deep economic and racial disparities in American culture to win over members and sympathizers. Marrin shows how the miscarriage of justice in the Scottsboro Boys case, the tragedy of the Rosenbergs, and the menace of the Joseph McCarthy and his war hearings lured many Americans to the ideals of communism-- without understanding its reality. He shows how fear of communist infiltration at times caused us to undermine our most deeply held values. -- adapted from jacket 521 1 Ages 14 and up 521 2 Grades 9-12 521 8 1120 |bLexile 610 20 Communist Party of the United States of America |xHistory |vJuvenile literature. |=^A78335 650 0 Communism |zUnited States |xHistory |y20th century |vJuvenile literature. |=^A990980 650 0 Anti-communist movements |zUnited States |xHistory |y20th century |vJuvenile literature. |=^A184464 650 0 Cold War |vJuvenile literature. |=^A990902 650 7 Politics and government. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01919741 650 7 Anti-communist movements. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00810317 650 7 Communism. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00870421 651 0 United States |xPolitics and government |y1933-1945 |vJuvenile literature. |=^A17481 651 0 United States |xHistory |y1933-1945 |vJuvenile literature. |=^A477954 651 0 United States |xHistory |y1945-1953 |vJuvenile literature. |=^A60170 651 0 United States |xHistory |y1945- |vJuvenile literature. |=^A17440 610 27 Communist Party of the United States of America. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00531336 |?UNAUTHORIZED 651 7 United States. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01204155 |?UNAUTHORIZED 647 7 Cold War |d(1945-1989) |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01754978 648 7 Since 1900 |2fast 655 7 Juvenile works. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01411637 655 7 Instructional and educational works. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01919931 655 7 History. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 Young adult nonfiction. |2lcgft 655 7 Instructional and educational works. |2lcgft 938 Brodart |bBROD |n126910499 949 973.9 M3495T |wDEWEY |hJOYNER14 |ojcas 994 C0 |bERE 596 1 998 5637340
