j. edgar hoover that was a counterintelligence program it's sent. and informants and undercover agents into organizations that hoover deemed subversive and this included martin luther king by looking as i was asian the communist party you know one point i think the status was there were there were more members of the communist party in america in the united states who were f.b.i. informants than there were non f.b.i. informants in the party that's helped pervasive the role of the f.b.i. in these groups were actual statistics that came out in the. the cointelpro congressional investigation and so what ended up happening in these organizations is that the f.b.i. tried to basically subvert them by putting in informants and report back to the f.b.i. what was going on but also in some cases you know incite them to do things you know for example it recently came out that richard oaky who was a long time black panther party member was actually an f.b.i. informant ernest withers the celebrated civil rights photographer in memphis turned out he was informant
