In a new documentary, Oscar-winning director Errol Morris (The Thin Blue Line, Gates of Heaven, Wormwood) delves into the shadowy and complex narrative of the Manson family murders. CHAOS: The Manson Murders, out now on Netflix, explores the darkest corners of recent history to unpack the potential conspiracy surrounding the killings. Unraveling a tangled tale involving the CIA, LSD, the JFK assassination, the Manson family, and Los Angeles attorney Vincent Bugliosi, the prosecutor whose 1974 bestseller Helter Skelter chronicled the Manson trial, the film casts doubt on the official story of the 1960s’ most infamous killing spree.

The documentary invites viewers to question the roles of well-known players and powerful institutions alike in a thought-provoking exploration of the tumultuous era’s cultural and political undercurrents.

“I’ve found myself trapped in a number of different true-crime stories, and the Manson murders are peculiar,” Morris told Netflix. “You could encapsulate the mystery in just one question: How is it that Manson managed to convince the people around him that killing was okay?”

To hear more from Morris on the enduring mystery of the Manson case, plus his own experience meeting Manson in the ‘70s, head over to the You Can’t Make This Up podcast: “You would think that having made such a movie that I would have all of my answers, and I don't,” Morris told host Rebecca Lavoie. “I really don't. He still, in so many ways, remains a mystery to me.”

Leftists & Liberals often make fun of conspiracy theories... but if they knew anything about COINTELPRO they would learn about conspiracy FACT.


The FBI has used covert operations against domestic political groups since its inception. Covert operations under the official COINTELPRO label took place between 1956 and 1971.

Which groups of people did these conspiracies target? Leftists??? Yes, Leftists.

My students had little way of knowing about this story behind the story because mainstream textbooks almost entirely ignore COINTELPRO. Though COINTELPRO offers teachers a trove of opportunities to illustrate key concepts, including the rule of law, civil liberties, social protest, and due process, it is completely absent from my school’s government book


One way to appreciate the wide net cast by COINTELPRO is to look at the final report of the Church Committee. In the early 1970s, following a number of allegations in the press about over-reaching government intelligence operations, a Senate committee chaired by Democrat Frank Church of Idaho began an investigation of U.S. intelligence agencies. Their 1976 report states: “The unexpressed major premise of much of COINTELPRO is that the Bureau [FBI] has a role in maintaining the existing social order, and that its efforts should be aimed toward combating those who threaten that order.” In other words, anyone who challenged the status quo of racism, militarism, and capitalism in American society was fair game for surveillance and harassment. Rather than “limited,” the FBI’s scope potentially included all social and political activists, an alarming and outrageous revelation in a country purportedly governed by the protections of speech and assembly in the First Amendment.

Luckily, we do not need to rely on corporate textbook publishers and the FBI for our resources and curriculum. Thanks to the Media burglars, and their suitcases full of stolen documents, we now have access to memos from this FBI program of destruction. In my curriculum, I have pulled together documents from the FBI’s website and from the book The COINTELPRO Papers: Documents from the FBI’s Secret Wars Against Dissent in the United States, edited by Ward Churchill and Jim Vander Wall. These documents reveal the FBI’s attempts to infiltrate and disrupt the Black Panthers, the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, the Congress of Racial Equality, and others; they reveal an attempt to blackmail Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. using illegally acquired recordings of purported marital infidelities, and a suggestion that he commit suicide. They reveal campaigns of misinformation, where FBI agents planted lies in newspaper and magazine coverage of activists.


Textbook publishers’ disregard for the history of COINTELPRO is one more example of the crucial importance of the Black Lives Matter movement, a movement that lays bare the systemic dangers faced by Black people in America while simultaneously affirming and celebrating Black life. What I attempt in my classroom is a Black Lives Matter treatment of COINTELPRO, where we reveal the injustice of the program while affirming and celebrating the promise of the activists it sought to silence. Just as Black Lives Matter activists use video footage to convince a wider public of what African Americans have long known about police brutality, teachers can use our classrooms to shine a light on history that has long been available, but systematically ignored, by our textbooks. We need a curriculum that emphatically communicates: Black history matters.



Was Mason a COINTELPRO operation? It's starting to look that way.

Netflix f*cked me up with this one... I need to detox from this conspiracy stuff... and stay off the internet for awhile.
