The Lavender Scare was a campaign by the U.S. government to purge gay people from government service. It began in the 1940s and lasted until the 1970s, resulting in the discharge of thousands of federal employees suspected of "sexual perversions." The campaign was similar to the better-known McCarthy-era Red Scare, and was driven by similar fears of subversion and sabotage.
