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.
