Original Note:
This is not true. “…(FBI) Director J. Edgar Hoover considered [Martin Luther] King a radical and made him an object of the FBI's COINTELPRO from 1963 forward. FBI agents investigated him for possible communist ties, spied on his personal life, and secretly recorded him.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Luther_King_Jr.
