The Cointelpro Papers: Documents from the FBI's Secret Wars Against Dissent in the United Statesby Ward Churchill
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Readers anxious about civil liberties under George W. Bush will find fodder for fears — and suggestions for activism — in The Cointelpro Papers. Ward Churchill and Jim Vander Wall's expose 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.
Synopsis:FBI documents and original interviews reveal the FBI's political campaigns from 1956 into the 1980s. About the AuthorWard Churchill (Keetowah Cherokee) has achieved an unparalleled reputation as a scholar-activist and analyst of indigenous issues. A Professor of American Indian Studies at the University of Colorado, Boulder and a leading member of AIM, Churchill is the author of numerous books, including From a Native Son, and, with Jim Vander Wall, Agents of Repression, and COINTELPRO Papers.
