In this Security Culture 101 episode, we uncover COINTELPRO’s ongoing tactics—from the Black Panthers to recent cases like the Cleveland 5—showing how the state uses infiltration, entrapment, and surveillance to disrupt activism. We highlight why Black, queer, Indigenous, and abolitionist organizers are targeted and share strategies to protect each other without fear. Essential listening for anyone resisting state repression.-----------------------------------------------
