It would be "heroin" that is the highly addictive drug derived from the poppy plant, since this is considered part of the "opiate" family of drugs, which come from poppies.
The answer to this is African Americans.
Back around World War II they mostly pay attention to the war so the whole racism left African Americans alone because around that time they didn't quite care for that too much because they mostly want to keep on the whole war thing. Around that time the U.S was just about getting ready to get involved.
Hope this helped :)
Have a great day
<span>Joseph Raymond McCarthy was an American politician who served as U.S. Senator from the state of Wisconsin from 1947 until his death in 1957. Beginning in 1950, McCarthy became the most visible public face of a period in the United States in which Cold War tensions fueled fears of widespread Communist subversion. He is known for alleging that numerous Communists and Soviet spies and sympathizers had infiltrated the United States federal government, universities, film industry, and elsewhere. Ultimately, the smear tactics that he used led him to be censured by the U.S. Senate. The term "McCarthyism", coined in 1950 in reference to McCarthy's practices, was soon applied to similar anti-communist activities. Today, the term is used in reference to what are considered demagogic, reckless, and unsubstantiated accusations, as well as public attacks on the character or patriotism of political opponents.
Ok.... I really hopes this helps!!!!
