It's March, 1971. 15 months have passed since the murder of Black Panthers leader Fred Hampton by the Chicago PD. But Hampton's killing is part of a concerted effort by the J Edgar Hoover's FBI to put down protest movements in the USA. Soon, the world will know the truth - all thanks to an intrepid gang of activist burglars and a trove of explosive secret files.
Join Sophia Di Martino and journalist Betty Medsger for the final episode exploring a shameful chapter in FBI history - COINTELPRO.
