During the 1950's, Joe McCarthy used fear tactics and paranoia to convince American citizens that communism was making its way into the United States. This US Senator accused hundreds of individuals of being communist, fueling what would be known as the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC). This committee, ran by the US Congress, called suspected communists or people who worked with communists, into Congress to question them.

One of the biggest targets in these investigations were individuals associated with labor unions. Labor unions were seen as more of a communist/socialist idea. This fear of being associated with a labor union caused a gradual decline in the amount of unions in the US during the 1950's.

Dilemmas such as land shortages, religious persecution, crop failure, and unability of landing (a) job (s), increasing rate of taxes, and famine, caused many immigrants to settle in the U. S. because it was perceived as the land of economic opportunity. Especially in the urban areas, where immigrants could experience a new era of industrial change. (Second Industrial Revolution)

This movement of immigrating to urban areas in the late 1800s and early 1900s is now known as the urbanization.
