'A 2017 report identified "black identity extremists" as a threat to law enforcement. Critics say this report is eerily similar to the FBI's counter intelligence program, a.k.a. COINTELPRO, which was established in the 1950's by
J. Edgar Hoover to specifically target African-Americans who were fighting for justice and equality, including
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.,
Malcolm X,
Fred Hampton, and many members of the
Black Panther Party.' --
