520    Selections from FBI files on political activists including
       Betty Friedan, Abbie Hoffman, Martin Luther King, Aaron 
       Swartz, and Malcolm X. The FBI has always kept tabs on 
       political activists. During the directorship of J. Edgar 
       Hoover, it was a Bureau-wide obsession. Did you see that 
       guy who didn't quite look like a journalist, taking 
       pictures at a demonstration? He was probably FBI. Did you 
       say something mildly subversive in a radio interview? It 
       went in your file. Did you attend a meeting of a left-
       leaning organization? The attendee who didn't contribute 
       but took copious notes was possibly an informant. This 
       third volume of selected FBI files liberated by MuckRock 
       documents the FBI's pursuit of activists and dissenters 
       ranging from Margaret Sanger to Malcolm X. Despite the 
       absence of evidence, Hoover suspected Communist influence 
       in every political protest. He grilled Martin Luther King,
       Jr., about Communist sympathizers in the civil rights 
       movement (while offering reporters off-the-record hints 
       about King's extramarital affairs). The Bureau 
       investigated the supposed threat posed by Cesar Chavez and
       the United Farm Workers but not threats to them, even 
       after the detonation of a bomb in their office. The Bureau
       persevered: files on Holocaust survivor Hedy Epstein cover
       six decades, from unfounded rumors of Communist 
       connections to her participation in a Black Lives Matter 
       demonstration. Recently, we hoped against hope that a 
       former FBI director would save us from our current 
       political predicament. These documents remind us of the 
       FBI's troubling history. The Activists Roger Nash Baldwin,
       Cesar Chavez, Hedy Epstein, Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, Betty 
       Friedan, Thelma Glass, Fred Hampton, Abbie Hoffman, Martin
       Luther King, Jr., Harvey Milk, Bayard Rustin, Margaret 
       Sanger, Aaron Swartz, John Trudell, Malcolm X, Howard 
       Zinn.
