<span>Great Britain, during the early 19th century, enacted strong anti slavery laws and enforced them in their role as the world's superpower. This came about during the early Victorian era as morality became a key issue in government a public revulsion towards the construct of slavery became common. Military intervention was taken against the muslim countries of North Africa who were the main perveyors of the slave trade. Naval intervention in the Atlantic also served to reduce the flow of slaves to the US and and also served to influence public opinion in the US against slavery, eventually becoming a factor in the US civil war of 1861-1865 and the emancipation of existing slaves and the outlawing of the institution of slavery.</span>
A. The Red Scare
Communists were associated with the color red because of the red flag of the Soviet Union -- thus the "Red Scare." One manifestation of the Red Scare was how people's privacy was invaded. Accusations about communists and communist sympathizers were aimed at all sorts of people. Many people in the Hollywood film industry were targeted during that time, for instance. But defenders of freedom (including film and television people) fought back against that. Those who aimed to protect the rights and liberties of each individual saw the Red Scare tactics as "witch hunts," where we suspect our neighbors of evil for no good reason.
Speaking of "witch hunts," the playwright Arthur Miller wrote a really powerful play in 1953, during the Cold War, which focused on the Salem witch trials. He was making the point that what was happening in the Red Scare (hunting for communists) was another manifestation of the witch-burning craze that had happened at a previous time in history.
