12 Main Idea Tensions after WWI caused an increase in political radicals – people with very new and different ideas. Two radicals who got international attention for an alleged murder were Sacco and Vanzetti.

13 1917: Lenin & Bolsheviks create Communist state in Russia 1 st RED SCARE

14 “He said his family used to live on a beautiful farm, but the government took it away from them. He said the Communists controlled everyone and everything. They couldn't even cut a tree down on their own property for firewood. He was afraid to walk from the house to the barn for fear of being shot. You had to be careful of everything you said because if you said something against the government, you put your life at risk. France's brother, August, did speak out and was pushed in front of a train and his legs were cut off. The Communists called it an ‘accident.’ August survived and went to the hospital, where he was poisoned – another ‘accident.’”

15 “We had a collie dog that I loved. One day I was hugging the dog and France told me that people couldn't have dogs in Yugoslavia because they couldn't afford them. He said people would stand around eating with both hands up to their mouth for fear of dropping crumbs on the floor -- they couldn't afford to drop any food because they didn't have enough to eat. He told me that the Communists brainwashed the citizens with propaganda and changed the history of their country. I couldn't believe it. ‘How could they get by with that?’ I thought.”
