7 0

The Crucible was an allegory supposedly about the Salem witch trials of the Massachussets Bay in 1692 to 1693 but it was really about the McCarthy anti-communist witch hunt of the 1950's. In the 1950's, as part of the Cold War, Senator McCarthy prosecuted pe arominent people like movie stars, singers etc for sympathizing with or being communists. For example, Paul Robeson, became destitute after his ostracism for being a communist for his support of the anti-fascist forces in Spain and then the role of the Soviet Union in WWII. His passport was revoked by McCarthy so he was unable to earn an income from international singing tours. His passport was re-instated in 1958 when he was too old to travel. Arthur MIller was cross-examined on the House for Un-American Activities and found in contempt of court for not disclosing who was at some meetings he had attended.

31pts List 3 pages of notes based on George washington will give brainliest and 100 more points later

Ivan

Answer:

Explanation:

George Washington was a Great General,a Great Leader and a great first president.He proved loyal in all of his ways and always he did what was needed.Although he had fake teeth.

George Washington was a great General.When he went into war,he always went in and never stopped until his side if the team won.Although he might have had a few losses of war.George Washington would clearly be a very good general because of his leadership position.But not just because of his position,but because of how he acted.

George Washington became a great leader in many ways.George Washington was the kind that didn't care too much about what he was or what he looked like.He proved a good leader for his people because he didn't care about himself .He cared for other people,their freedom and such as.

George Washington was a great first president too!He was a role model for other presidents too!George was the one who thought of the name "president".So it occurs that he might have had a lot of great ideas or he might have not .Either way it doesn't really matter,George Washington was a great first role model.

And about those dental teeth................................................................

George Washington lost his teeth when he was young due to either bad diet or a disease.It wasn't very easy to keep your teeth at such a old time.About the time when he almost died,he had only one tooth left in his mouth!!So pretty obviously he wore dentures.Hard Dentures.

General President Leader Washington was a good leader no matter his name.
