Do you think it can't happen here? What happened in Vermont when the anti-Communist fear known as the "Red Scare" swept the country? Quite a bit, as it turns out. Rick Winston, author of the recently published "Red Scare in the Green Mountains: Vermont in the McCarthy Era," explores some forgotten history as we see how a small, rural "rock-ribbed Republican" state with a historically libertarian streak handled the hysteria of the time. Join Monkton Museum and Historical Society on Feb. 17th at 7:00 PM. Monkton Town Hall to learn about our past and consider the future.
