How did the red scare and McCarthyism affect civil rights?
The Red Scare and McCarthyism significantly impacted civil rights by fostering an atmosphere of fear and suspicion that stifled dissent and marginalized various groups, including civil rights activists. Many individuals were blacklisted or persecuted for their political beliefs, often conflating leftist ideologies with disloyalty. This climate hindered the progress of civil rights movements, as activists were often targeted for their associations or perceived radicalism, which diverted attention from racial injustices. Ultimately, the oppressive tactics of this era underscored the need for civil liberties and protections, influencing later civil rights advocacy.

What historical conflict was an example of a disagreement between state and federal government?
The American Civil War, even though technically the disagreement was between a group of states (the South) and the federal government (with its antislavery president, Abraham Lincoln), the fact of the matter was that at the most basic level the Civil War was a states' rights issue, in this case, slavery happened to be the issue that caused it. So the Civil War is technically not as much about slavery as it is about states' rights, slavery is a symptom of the disease not the disease itself. A more modern example is the Civil Rights movement, which pitted a state-by-state definition of citizenry vs a universal federal definition. The federal definition won.
