In this video-lesson, students learn the amazing story of Joseph McCarthy and McCarthyism during the Red Scare that resulted in a loss of civil liberties and widespread fear and paranoia.  Teaching the rise and fall of McCarthy, the HUAC (House of UnAmerican Activities Committee), Hollywood 10, Truman's Loyalty Board, and the McCarthy-Army Hearings that brought about his swift fall from grace in a powerful way students won't forget.
 The lessons cover state-standards while making sure the content is still interesting.
