Description

This text is a documented account of a neglected chapter in the history of American political intelligence. For several years after World War I, any African Americans who spoke out forcefully for their race -editors, union organisers, civil rights advocates, political activists, and Pan-Africanists - were likely to be investigated by a network of federal intelligence agencies. A young J. Edgar Hoover of the Bureau of Investigation (later de FBI) spearheaded the effort to discredit black activists and their demands for civil rights as communist-inspired and a threat to national security, a real Red scare. For this gripping account of a neglected, shameful chapter of American political intelligence, the author has uncovered much new material, including the identities of black informers and agent provocateurs.
