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 Scotsboro 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   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library YA -- Nonfiction 973.921 Ma Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library YA -- Nonfiction 973.921 Ma Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973.921 Ma Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library YA -- Nonfiction 973.921 Ma Checked In Add Copy to MyList
