The Johnson Tapes-Uncivil Liberties

I came across this video a number of years ago on the Discovery Channel. This program details about the recordings of President Lyndon Johnson and FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover and the lengths they would go to discredit Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr before the signing of the 1964 Civil Rights Bill. This video program is a basic outline of the now infamous F.B.I. Counter Intelligence Program.
