Ward Churchill with Richard Brown of the SF8

COINTELPRO Lives:

Reflections on Government Repression Then and Now

Monday, November 26, 2007 - 7PM
New College Theater
77 Valencia Street, San Francisco

Although COINTELPRO formally ended in the 1970s, the US government
continues to wage covert operations and other repressive tactics to
"expose, disrupt, misdirect, discredit, or otherwise neutralize"
radical social movements. Ward Churchill (author of COINTELPRO PAPERS)
will speak on the history of COINTELPRO and the State's ongoing
campaigns of repression targeting dissident groups. Richard Brown will
speak on behalf of the SF8, eight former Black Panthers whose recent
arrest on previously-dismissed charges demonstrates that COINTELPRO is
alive and well.
