During the 1950s, the NAACP conspired with the CIA to lure South African Black liberationists into the US orbit, said Dr. Gerald Horne, prolific author and professor of history and African American Studies at the University of Houston. The NAACP failed to “flip” African National Congress activists into the anti-communist camp, according to Horne, who’s newest book is titled White Supremacy Confronted: US Imperialism and Anti-Communism Versus the Liberation of Southern Africa from Rhodes to Mandela.
