    Default Documentaries on COINTELPRO

    Does anyone know good documentaries about FBI surveillance, COINTELPRO, etc, specifically relating to the Black Panther Party or even MLK and his assassination?

    Thanks

    I know little specific documentaries but there is a lot of mention of the program and its effects in the WeatherUnderground movie as it essentially splitted the movement between those who got cold feet and dropped out back into the academic fold and those who joined the BLA and got locked up for decades.

    There are loads out there, use google if you want to get an idea, I haven't watched them all.

    The best one is COINTELPRO 101 but I can't find the full documentary anywhere. I've seen a live screening of it though a few months ago and it was really thought provoking and informative.
