"We don't have to worry about whether we will have a political police either in the United States or Canada. We've had them for a long time...It's not a question of how to prevent it, it's a question of how to deal with it since it's an existent reality."—Ward Churchill, from the CD.

The U.S. government has used all means to subvert and neutralize movements for social change. This lecture exposes the criminal justice system as an agent of social control.
