The McCarthy Era Red Scare in Michigan: Its Meaning, Then and Now
David Maraniss
In 1952, David Maraniss’s father, a U-M alumnus, was called before the House Un-American Activities Committee. David wrote about his family’s experiences in his book – many of which centered around U-M – in his book, A Good American Family: The Red Scare and My Father, and will discuss how this period of heightened ideological tension still reverberates today, especially given our own era of increasing political engagement and polarization.
