The Red Scare - 1920's Project

The Red Scare - 1920's Project
 

For American History class, we have to create a movie poster, front page of a newspaper, magazine cover, or concert/performance flyer, etc about the 1920's. I chose to create a front page of a newspaper. I need to include a minimum of seven historical facts and at least one picture.


My topic is about the Red Scare.

This project is due tomorrow so please check it today! I want to get a 20/20 on this project! I have American history first period!

here are my facts....please check if they are OK. Thanks!

• Russian Revolution caused worry in America
• Bolshevik, anarchist, communist, & red - described people who were perceived as a threat
• series of bombing, bomb scares contributed to radical political activity by foreign agitators
• Recent immigrants from Europe: most active Communists & anarchists
• Xenophobia, fear and hatred of foreigners spreads
• Part of a plot by radical elements to overthrow government were bombings & attempted bombings
• Communists Parties had fewer than 40,000 members, many Americans however suspected that Reds were everywhere

This is my picture. is that an OK picture?

Yes, your poster illustrates xenophobia well,and it looks like it's from that decade. I didn't know there was much of a red scare in the 20's, but I guess it had something to do with the establishment of labor unions and the bloodiness of the Russian revolution.

^Sí, no creo que El Susto Rojo acaera en la 20s. Tal vez la iniciacíon de la 20s, aunque.

ok :) this was part 1. part 2 is on another thread.
