During and after World War II, Americans were fearful of communism infiltrating the United States and altering their ways of life. To combat this fear, citizens and the local\/state\/federal government organized anti-communism efforts to inform the public about possible communist activities on national and local levels.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The items in this online exhibit highlight various aspects of the anti-communism efforts in Mississippi. The materials featured in this online exhibit are located in Special Collections at the University of Southern Mississippi.\u00a0<\/p>","credits":"","featured":0,"public":1,"theme":"thanksroy","theme_options":"a:2:{s:9:\"thanksroy\";a:12:{s:10:\"text_color\";s:7:\"#444444\";s:16:\"background_color\";s:7:\"#FFFFFF\";s:10:\"link_color\";s:7:\"#4a4949\";s:12:\"button_color\";s:7:\"#000000\";s:17:\"button_text_color\";s:7:\"#FFFFFF\";s:18:\"header_title_color\";s:7:\"#000000\";s:4:\"logo\";N;s:17:\"header_background\";N;s:11:\"footer_text\";s:0:\"\";s:24:\"display_footer_copyright\";s:1:\"0\";s:17:\"item_file_gallery\";s:1:\"1\";s:19:\"use_advanced_search\";s:1:\"1\";}s:7:\"default\";a:7:{s:4:\"logo\";s:36:\"d59cca10209b0aafa84309cc62b2c7d8.png\";s:12:\"header_image\";N;s:16:\"header_image_alt\";s:0:\"\";s:11:\"footer_text\";s:0:\"\";s:24:\"display_footer_copyright\";s:1:\"0\";s:19:\"use_advanced_search\";s:1:\"0\";s:17:\"item_file_display\";s:1:\"0\";}}","slug":"anticommunism","added":"2020-01-27 16:02:36","modified":"2025-06-17 16:09:45","owner_id":25262,"use_summary_page":0,"cover_image_file_id":324,"id":2},"item":{"item_type_id":1,"collection_id":3,"featured":0,"public":1,"added":"2021-04-23 10:04:02","modified":"2021-05-11 16:59:54","owner_id":25262,"id":222}}
