The citizens who were blacklisted are people who refused to answer questions regarding their affiliation with the Communist Party. Some of these include producers, directors, and screenwriters. Since this list occurred around 1940's and 1950's, some of the people who were blacklisted include: Lester Cole, Adrian Scott, Dalton Trumbo, and many others. Through this process came the Hollywood Ten. The Hollywood Ten were a group of men who spent time in prison for being on the blacklist. Most were never employed in Hollywood again. Many blacklist entries were merely rumors about the citizens. To get on the Blacklist, would mean other people are suspicious of the effects on the Red Scare.

John Henry Faulk was the one who first began to put a stop to the blacklisting. In 1957, he sued a company called AWARE, one of the many private organisations making quick money at the time by publicizing the names of supposed left wing supporters in the US film industry. However, the one who may have sealed the deal would be Kirk Douglass with his work as Spartacus in the same year.

Communism is a political theory, advocating class war and leading to a society in which all property is publicly owned and each person works and is paid according to their abilities and needs.

The investigation of Hollywood radicals by the House on Un-American Activities Committee  in 1947 and 1951 was a continuation of pressures first exerted in the late 1930s and early 1940s by the Dies Committee and State Senator Jack Tenney's California Joint Fact-finding Committee on Un-American Activities. HUAC charged that Communists had established a significant base in the dominant medium of mass culture. Communists were said to be placing subversive messages into Hollywood films and discriminating against unsympathetic colleagues. A further concern was that Communists were in a position to place negative images of the United States in films that would have wide international distribution. Totally ignored in the hysteria generated by HUAC were the realities of the Hollywood studio system of the 1930s and 1940s.
