The House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) was established in the 1930s to investigate alleged disloyalty and subversive activities among private citizens, particularly those in the entertainment industry. The "Hollywood Ten" were a group of screenwriters and directors who refused to testify before HUAC about their political beliefs and affiliations during the Red Scare. Their defiance led to their blacklisting in Hollywood, representing a significant clash between government authority and artistic freedom during a time of intense anti-communist sentiment.
