understanding the context helps you comprehend the importance of what is happening | Online Homework Aiders

I’m working on a English question and need guidance to help me study.

After reading “Communists in the State Department,” (attached) you will do some research on Senator Joseph McCarthy. What you find will give you more insight into what was happening at the time and the significance of McCarthy’s claim of: “I have in my hand 57 cases of individuals who would appear to be either card-carrying members or certainly loyal to the Communist Party.” Your assignment is to find one thing you discovered while researching Senator McCarthy and provide a brief explanation as to how you understand the speech more as a result of knowing these things. Remember that context can be what comes before, during or after the event in question. (Only need about 75 words)
