American Legion

From ProleWiki, the proletarian encyclopedia

The American Legion is a terrorist paramilitary organization in the United States. Founded in May 1919, it quickly grew to over a million members and attacked leftists and unionists during the First Red Scare. Many of its members also supported the KKK, which similarly suppressed dissent on behalf of the state.[1]
