The+Crucible+Webquest

Introduction
Recently, many American citizens have been accused of being zombies. You believe that these accusations are unfounded, and since you are a lawyer defending one of the accused, you want to do some research on other events in history where innocent people have been swept up in a wave of mass hysteria, so you have decided to focus on the Salem Witch Trials and The Red Scare.

Task
Your task is to create a compare/contrast essay on these two historical events that you will use as an opening statement for your trial. In order to do this, you need to answer a few questions about each event first.
