Come to a free screening about the history that history forgot.
COINTELPRO 101
DC Metro Area Showings
March 5th - 29th
COINTELPRO was a series of covert, and often
illegal, projects conducted by the United States
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) aimed at
surveilling, infiltrating, discrediting, and
disrupting domestic political organizations. The
tactics used included discrediting targets
through psychological warfare, planting false
reports in the media, smearing through forged
letters, harassment, wrongful imprisonment,
extralegal violence and assassination.
COINTELPRO 101 is an educational film that will
open the door to understanding this history. The
documentary will introduce viewers new to this
history to the basics and direct them to other
resources where they can learn more. The intended
audiences are the generations that did not
experience the social justice movements of the
sixties and seventies. We are screening this new
documentary far and wide. The intended audiences
are (but not limited to) the generations that did
not experience the social justice movements of
