Question 6
The "Red Scare" in the 1920s U.S. was caused by fears of communism (the Bolshevik Revolution's spread, labor unrest, anarchist/communist activities like bombings), nativist and isolationist sentiments, and the desire to suppress radical ideologies after WWI. Events like the Palmer Raids, fear of foreign radicals (anarchists, communists), and labor strikes (seen as communist-influenced) fueled it.
One example of a worker group that organized strikes in the 1920s was the United Mine Workers of America (UMWA). They went on strike to demand better working conditions, fair wages, and improved labor rights. Another example could be the American Federation of Labor (AFL) - affiliated unions, which also organized strikes in various industries during this period.

The "Red Scare" in the 1920s U.S. was caused by fears of the spread of communism (inspired by the Russian Bolshevik Revolution), concerns over anarchist and communist - related activities (such as bombings by radicals), labor unrest that was misperceived as being driven by communist ideology, and nativist/isolationist sentiments that led to a desire to suppress radical and foreign - influenced ideologies in the post - World War I era.
