What negative aspects of the early American identity are revealed in the crucible

Religious fanaticism and misogyny.

Explanation:

The crucible is a play that depicts the Salem massacre, where countless individuals (mainly women) were sentenced to death for being accused of being involved in witchcraft.

The play reveals negative points that the population exhibited during colonial America. One of these points is religious fanaticism, since all the politics and social guidelines seen in the play revolve around religion and fanaticism, which could cause great hysteria in the city, as happened in real history.

Another negative point shown is misogeny since this population believed that women were more likely to be creatures of the devil and that their bodies were already naturally corrupted and therefore they were easier to be accused of witches.
