Director of photography, Robert Chappell ; editor, Laura Tomaselli ; score composed by Gerald Clayton.James Comey, Beverly Gage, Martin Luther King Jr.Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. is remembered today as an American hero: a bridge-builder, a shrewd political tactician, and a moral leader. Yet throughout his history-altering political career, he was often treated by U.S. intelligence and law enforcement agencies like an enemy of the state. In this virtuosic documentary, award-winning editor and director Sam Pollard (Editor, 4 Little Girls, Mo' Better Blues; Director/Producer, Eyez on The Prize, Sammy Davis, Jr.: I've Gotta Be Me) lays out a detailed account of the FBI surveillance that dogged King's activism throughout the '50s and '60s, fueled by the racist and red-baiting paranoia of J. Edgar Hoover. In crafting a rich archival tapestry, featuring some revelatory restored footage of King, Pollard urges us to remember that true American progress is always hard-won. -- Provided by publisher.DVD; region 1, NTSC; widescreen; Dolby digital 5.1.

"Conspiracies often dwell in the realms of fantasy and fiction. But what happens when some of the "theories" dismissed by politicians and the media instead turn out to be true? Obscured from public scrutiny, plots have been hatched that defy our most wild speculations. These aren't tales spun by overactive imaginations, but actual covert operations conducted by those bestowed with immense power and trust. The stories shared in this gripping book are more than just disturbing episodes of our history -- they're stark reminders of the ability of powerful people to shape world events and our own lives through deception and lawless corruption. By illuminating these obscure corners of history, this book will challenge you to question, to seek the truth, and to be skeptical of those in power." --

Nixon ; Golem ; Ghoul ; Widow ; Helms ; Colby ; Smoking gun ; Desolate ; Cheney ; Warning ; Inconceivable ; Legacy ; Legend ; Jerusalem.CIA spymaster James Jesus Angleton was one of the most powerful unelected officials in the United States government in the mid-20th century, a ghost of American power. From World War II to the Cold War, Angleton operated beyond the view of the public, Congress, and even the president. He unwittingly shared intelligence secrets with Soviet spy Kim Philby, a member of the notorious Cambridge spy ring. He launched mass surveillance by opening the mail of hundreds of thousands of Americans. He abetted a scheme to aid Israel's own nuclear efforts, disregarding U.S. security. He committed perjury and obstructed the JFK assassination investigation. He oversaw a massive spying operation on the antiwar and black nationalist movements and he initiated an obsessive search for communist moles that nearly destroyed the Agency. In The Ghost, investigative reporter Jefferson Morley tells Angleton's dramatic story, from his friendship with the poet Ezra Pound through the underground gay milieu of mid-century Washington to the Kennedy assassination to the Watergate scandal. From the agency's MKULTRA mind-control experiments to the wars of the Mideast, Angleton wielded far more power than anyone knew. Yet during his seemingly lawless reign in the CIA, he also proved himself to be a formidable adversary to our nation's enemies, acquiring a mythic stature within the CIA that continues to this day.

Revolution in our time : the Black Panther Party's promise to the people / by Magoon, Kekla,author.(CARDINAL)485305;

For too long the Panthers' story has been a footnote to the civil rights movement rather than what it was: a revolutionary socialist movement that drew thousands of members--mostly women--and became the target of one of the most sustained repression efforts ever made by the U.S. government against its own citizens. Revolution in Our Time puts the Panthers in the proper context of Black American history, from the first arrival of enslaved people to the Black Lives Matter movement of today. Kekla Magoon's eye-opening work invites a new generation of readers grappling with injustices in the United States to learn from the Panthers' history and courage, inspiring them to take their own place in the ongoing fight for justice"--Ages 12-UP7th Grade-Up1200LAccelerated Reader ARA Junior Library Guild selection
