Vermont Humanities Council Presentation: The Red Scare in the Green Mountains - Vermont in the McCarthy Era

Tuesday, Oct. 12, 6:30 - 8 p.m. Milton Public Library Community Room
What happened in Vermont when the anti-communist fear known as the "Red Scare" swept the country? Rick Winston, author of "Red Scare in the Green Mountains: Vermont in the McCarthy Era," explores forgotten history as we see how a small, rural "rock-ribbed Republican" state with a historically libertarian streak handled the hysteria of the time.

This presentation is brought to you through the Vermont Humanities Council Speakers Bureau and is free to the public.

Sign up required. Call (802) 893-4644 to register. Masks are required.
