A paper that talks about all of these topics could be titled "America's fear of communism, socialism, and anarchy after World War I."
All of the aforementioned events/people deal with fear felt by American citizens. For example, Sacco and Vanzetti were two Italian immigrants known for their political views. They believed in a society that had no government, also known as an anarchy. These two men were accused of, and later found guilty, of committing a murder. However, many individuals argued that they were found guilty not because of the evidence but rather the fact that they were anarchists.
The Palmer Raids were another result of fear towards a specific group. In this case, Attorney General Palmer raided the homes of 5,000 suspected communists. The goal was to uncover any plans to overthrow the American government. No evidence was found to support this conclusion.
I think the major reason why American colonists were different is because they came to a new land to flee persecution from their government. In what I have learned about societies forming colonies, many colonies were formed in other countries because a nation had control of that country. Take the Greek empire for example. The Greek citizens moved to counties that Greece had invaded and dwelt among those people and learned from them as well. In the Americas no one had really formed a colony or claimed the land for their country. Hopefully this helps.
Massachusetts
"In the 1870s, Massachusetts began to investigate factory conditions."
The industrial revolution completely changed Massachusetts in the 19th century. It transformed its economy, society, transportation, health and medicine.
Massachusetts is known as the "cradle of the American Industrial Revolution"
<span>The New Deal<span>At Roosevelt's nationally broadcast inauguration speech, the new president denounced the "money changers" who had brought on the economic disaster and declared that the government must wage war on the Great Depression as it would against an armed foe. Roosevelt's liberal solution to the problems was to aggressively use government as a tool for creating a "new deal" for the American people, aimed at three R's--relief, recovery, and reform. The New Deal's most immediate goals were short-range relief and immediate recovery. These were the immediate goals of the Hundred Days Congress, which met March 9-June 6, 1933. Long-range goals of permanent recovery and the reform of institutional abuses and practices that had produced the Depression came as part of the Second New Deal, from November 1933 to 1939.
Hope this helps.</span></span>
