The COINTELPRO Papers: Documents from the FBI's Secret Wars

The COINTELPRO Papers: Documents from the FBI's Secret Wars Against Dissent in the United States

Readers anxious about civil liberties under George W. Bush will find fodder for fearsâ€”and suggestions for activismâ€”in The COINTELPRO Papers. Ward Churchill and Jim Vander Wall's exposÃ© of America's political police force, the FBI, reveals the steel fist undergirding "compassionate conservatism's" velvet glove. Using original FBI memos, the authors provide extensive analysis of the agency's treatment of the left, from the Communist Party in the 1950s to the Central America solidarity movement in the 1980s. The authors' new introduction posits likely trajectories for domestic repression.
