During the Red Scare, particularly the first one in the early 1920s, the most notable figure arrested was anarchist and socialist leader Emma Goldman. She, along with many others, was targeted during the Palmer Raids, which aimed to suppress radical political movements. Thousands of immigrants, labor activists, and leftists were also arrested, but Goldman remains one of the most prominent examples of the crackdown on perceived subversion. The second Red Scare in the late 1940s and 1950s saw numerous individuals, including government officials and Hollywood figures, face accusations and arrests related to alleged communist affiliations.
