The Hollywood Ten were a group of screenwriters and directors who were cited for contempt of Congress in 1947 after refusing to testify before the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) about alleged communist affiliations. They were subsequently blacklisted from working in the film industry, leading to significant professional and personal consequences. Their defiance became a symbol of resistance against the McCarthy-era witch hunts, highlighting issues of free speech and political persecution in America. Ultimately, the Hollywood Ten played a crucial role in raising awareness about the dangers of censorship and the impact of the Red Scare on the arts.
