:) during the cold war, people were afraid of communists, both outside and inside the united states. the red scare and mccarthyism that grew out of these fears were damaging to the american way of life. during the mccarthy years, many of the freedoms guaranteed in the bill of rights were limited. write a paragraph explaining what lessons can be learned from the mccarthy era about what u. s. citizens need to protect in order to preserve the democratic political system and the american way of life.

well the lessons we can learn is how quickly our fragile freedoms can be overcome. mccarthy rose to power in 1950 of a tsunami of anti-communist hysteria, brandishing a lost of "known communists" in the state department, and held public trials to enhance his political clout. he had fallen from power but only when his attacks were against the u.s. army broadcast to millions of americans to their homes exposing his indecent persecution of the innocence of people. the senate censured him in december 1954 disgraced and discredited, he had died three years later at the age of 47..i hope my answer has you.. good day to you..

native american contribution: the patriots from britain learn how to hunt, fish, and introduce diversity within cultures.

african americans: indirectly introduced the idea of diversity to americans. africans coming to america because of slavery taught white americans that people come from different backgrounds and colors. it also built america's economic stability for a great period of time. 

women: make america what it is today. there are some societies that are in the world currently that do not give women the same right we give women here in the united states. because women have rights here in the united states, other countries' citizens strive to come to america, especially women, since they have equal rights in the united states. this is important because america is seen and desired by many in the world. 

children: children are our future. we learn from our elders and carry out things the same or differently learning from america's history. we continue tradition and change tradition if it is needed.
