If you were watching the news in the 1960’s you would have seen that Martin Luther King was out to destroy America and that the good policemen were only doing their jobs by beating and arresting civil rights protesters.

At that time the civil rights movement was a serious threat to the establishment, so much so that government agencies developed a program to target and silence civil rights leaders, this program was called “COINTELPRO”. It is this program that many researchers believe is responsible for the deaths of Martin Luther King, Malcolm X and other civil rights activists.

Now, newly declassified documents published by The New York Times show the sickening depths that the FBI went to in their operations against Martin Luther King. The report, which was recently discovered by historian and professor Beverly Gage, shows an unclassified version of the famous letter that the FBI sent King, suggesting that he should kill himself because they had so much dirt on him.

The public had already known of this document for decades, but the version that was available was heavily censored, while the new version is a copy of the original uncensored letter.
