The Red Scare of the 1920s began in the aftermath of World War I, around 1919, and continued into the early 1920s, roughly ending around 1920 or 1921. This period was marked by widespread fear of communism and radical leftism, fueled by events such as the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia and domestic labor strikes. The government responded with aggressive measures, including the Palmer Raids, which targeted suspected radicals and immigrants. The scare gradually subsided as fears diminished and the political climate shifted.
