Students,
Today we evaluated the feelings and atmosphere present in the United States during McCarthyism of the 1950's.
We role played an activity demonstrating how easy it was to come into contact and make a connection with a "communist spy". The implication of that association being that you got a point deduction on your grades (this is of course was not really true). If you were absent you can print off the copy of the political cartoon analysis that followed up this activity and interpret the dangers presented by McCarthyism.
