On this day, 2 January 1920, the start of the second Palmer Raids, an attempt by the US Department of Justice to arrest and deport radical workers and leftists, especially anarchists. Some 6000 were arrested and held without trial on January 2nd, and although most were released without charge, more than 500 foreign citizens were deported, among them most famously Emma Goldman.
You can read more about it in Goldman’s fascinating autobiography, here: https://libcom.org/library/emma-goldman-living-my-life https://www.facebook.com/workingclasshistory/photos/a.296224173896073/1312053938979753/?type=3
