Thanks! Excellent addition fills many historic gaps and builds a clear picture where we were and explains the recent two decades as well.

The role of J. Edgar Hoover fits well and how the FBI tried to smear MLK as a Communist and traitor for criticizing the Vietnam War shortly before he was assassinated in Memphis. 1968 another pivotal year in American History ... death MLK and Robert Kennedy, the Chicago protests around the DNC convention and of course the Nixon/Kissinger role in undermining the Paris Peace talks to end the Vietnam War. Speaking of patriotism and the role of American traitors. Depends on who authors history.

• MLK: "Beyond Vietnam"
• Adlai E. Stevenson, McCarthyism, and the FBI
