COINTELPRO 101
Freedom Archives' film COINTELPRO 101 exposes
illegal surveillance, disruption, and outright
murder committed by the US government in the
1950s, 60s, and 70s. Cointelpro refers to the
official FBI COunter INTELigence PROgram carried
out to surveil, imprison, and eliminate leaders
of social justice movements and to disrupt,
divide, and destroy the movements as well. Many
of the government's crimes are still unknown.
Through interviews with activists who experienced
these abuses firsthand, with rare historical
footage, the film provides an educational
introduction to a period of intense repression
and draws relevant lessons for the present and future.
