FBI Never Stopped Unlawful Spying on Dissidents
Black Agenda Radio with Nellie Bailey and Glen Ford
28 Oct 2019
🖨️ Print Article

A new report on FBI spying since 2010 shows the Bureau continues to surveil the speech and activities of peace, environmental, and racial and economic justice advocates. Report author Chip Gibbons, of Defending Rights and Dissent, said the FBI’s framing of so-called Black Identity Extremists is especially insidious. “What they’re saying is, if you’re Black and you’re angry about racism, you’re likely to commit a crime” and must be closely watched.
