"We don't have to worry about whether we will have a political police either in the United States or Canada. We've had them for a long time ... It's not a question of how to prevent it, it's a question of how to deal with it since it is an existent reality."The U.S. government has used all means to subvert and neutralize movements for social change. This lecture focuses on the FBI's counter intelligence programs (COINTELPRO), their use in undermining dissent and the criminal justice system's role as an agent of social control.
(Ward Churchill)
This lecture was recorded on September 15th 2000 at the Doing Time conference held at the University of Winnipeg, Canada.
