Enraged by the bombings, the United States government responded by raiding the headquarters of radical organizations and arresting thousands of suspected radicals.
Palmer Raids, also called Palmer Red Raids, raids conducted by the U.S. Department of Justice in 1919 and 1920 in an attempt to arrest foreign anarchists, communists, and radical leftists, many of whom were subsequently deported.
The Palmer Raids were a series of raids conducted in November 1919 and January 1920 by the United States Department of Justice under the administration of President Woodrow Wilson to capture and arrest suspected socialists, especially anarchists and communists, and deport them from the United States.
How were many victims of the Palmer Raids treated? They were sent to jail without a trial.
The First Red Scare (1919-1921) was fueled by Americans' fears that the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia would spread to the United States.
Along with socialism, anarchism led to the Palmer Raids because people feared that the people who believed in anarachism would try to overthrow the government (democracy). Radicals were people who favored drastic change to government. Radicals believed in "radical theories", such as anarchism, communism, and socialism.
Explanation: Palmer faced significant opposition, especially from Congress, but the raids were justified as necessary in the face of a larger American panic over communists and other perceived subversives supposedly embedded in parts of the American government.Jan 24, 2018
