Out Of The Blank #1226 - Daniel S. Chard

Daniel S. Chard is a historian and author of the book "Nixon's War at Home: The FBI, Leftist Guerrillas, and the Origins of Counterterrorism (Justice, Power, and Politics)". During the presidency of Richard Nixon, homegrown leftist guerrilla groups like the Weather Underground and the Black Liberation Army carried out hundreds of attacks in the United States. The FBI had a long history of infiltrating activist groups, but this type of clandestine action posed a unique challenge. Drawing on thousands of pages of declassified FBI documents, Daniel S. Chard shows how America's war with domestic guerrillas prompted a host of new policing measures as the FBI revived illegal spy techniques previously used against communists in the name of fighting terrorism.
