DESCRIPTION:Optik Allusions/ Oscar Grant Committee presents:\n\nA film about direct 
 action to expose government surveillance. \n\nOn March 8, 1971, the night 
 of the “Fight of the Century” boxing match between Muhammad Ali and Joe 
 Frazier, eight activists, calling themselves the Citizens’ Commission to 
 Investigate the FBI, broke into to the small FBI field office in Media, 
 Pennsylvania. They took hundreds of files from the office and mailed 
 anonymously to the newspapers and congressmen. In doing so, they uncovered 
 the FBI’s vast and illegal regime of spying and intimidation of 
 Americans.The most significant revelation was an illegal program overseen 
 by lifelong FBI director J. Edgar Hoover known as COINTELPRO – the 
 Counter Intelligence Program.\n\nQ & A after the screening\n\n$5 suggested 
 donation but no one turned away for the lack of funds\n
