The Red Scare of 1919-1920 resulted in widespread fear of communism and radical leftism in the United States, leading to a crackdown on perceived dissidents. Thousands of immigrants were deported, particularly those with radical political affiliations, in a series of government-led raids known as the Palmer Raids. Civil liberties were often suspended, and there was a significant rise in anti-immigrant sentiment and xenophobia. The period marked a significant, though temporary, shift in American politics and social attitudes toward labor movements and political dissent.
