ON MARCH 8, 1971 -- 14 years before Edward Snowden was born -- illegal government surveillance was exposed when eight seemingly ordinary
Americans broke into an FBI office in Media, Pennsylvania, and stole
more than 1,000 documents.
HEAR FROM THE KEY PLAYERS who exposed COINTELPRO, the FBI’s vast
domestic spying operation designed to induce paranoia among Americans,
particularly civil rights activists.
- Bonnie Raines, educator and member of the Citizens Commission to Investigate the FBI
- John C. Raines, professor and member of the Citizens Commission to Investigate the FBI
- Betty Medsger, author of The Burglary: The Discovery of J. Edgar Hoover’s Secret FBI
