Through a secret program called the Counter Intelligence Program (COINTELPRO), there was a concerted effort to subvert the will of the people to avoid the rise "of a Black Messiah" that would mobilize the African-American community into a meaningful political force.

Edgar Hoover and the FBI which aimed to discredit black political figures and forces of the late 1960's and early 1970's.
