Answer:

Sacco and Vanzetti were immigrants and anarchist during the Red Scare.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Red Scare was a time in the early 1900s-1920s where American's feared communism/communist. Sacco and Vanzetti were easy targets because they were Italian immigrants and because their political beliefs were different than what was mainstream. Even with doubts of their guilt and insufficient evidence to truly sentence them, they were sentenced to death. This may or may not be the answer you're looking for. Good Luck!
