                <text>This is a 1983 article written by the historian Prof. Manning Marable as a critical response to what was happening to the Congress of Racial Equality under its national director Roy Innis in the 1980's. Marable comments on CORE's involvement in the 1975 Angola civil war stating CORE “was placing its name and prestige in the service of international terrorism and White supremacy.” Marable also comments on the award given to  General Westmoreland, the head of the U.S. forces in the Vietnam war, at CORE's annual Martin Luther King Jr. Dinner in 1983.</text>

                <text>These are two articles written by investigative journalist Jack Anderson on the internal violence going on within the Congress of Racial Equality during the 1970's. They discuss how national director Roy Innis ordered several members of CORE to be assaulted (including Ray Cunnigham of L.A. CORE) and others to be shot including CORE leaders Waverly Yates and Jimmy Howard. The terms "hit" and "shoot" are used ambiguously in these articles. However,  in another article published by the Amsterdam News ("As Primary Day Draws Near Owens-Innis Battle Rages", Sep. 6, 1986) Innis' bodyguard Marvin Peay, who was interviewed for these Post articles, clearly stated that "Innis ordered him to kill his political rival Waverly Yates...".</text>

                <text>This is a 1985 article on a lawsuit filed by CORE national director against investigative journalist Les Payne. Innis sued Payne for comments made on the current affairs program "Like It Is" where Payne stated Innis was "flacking for the C.I.A." in regards. to CORE's potential involvement in the 1975 Angolan civil war. Payne also stated he felt Innis put a "hit" on him for exposing the operation.&#13;

                <text>This is a 1975 article written by investigative journalists Les Payne and Ernie Volkman on how CORE national director Roy Innis planned to involve CORE in the 1975 Angolan civil war. This was considered highly controversial since his program was  reported to be part of a C.I.A. operation.  The article is crucial to the debate as to whether or not Roy Innis may have been an agent for the C.I.A.</text>

                <text>This is a document from the Federal Bureau of Investigation's COINTELPRO program that discusses plans to attempt to convince Herman Ferguson, former education chairman of South Jamaica CORE, that Charles 37X Kenyatta, leader of the Harlem Mau Mau, was going to try and kill him. Both men were former associates of Malcolm X. &#13;
&#13;
  The document is significant for several reasons. It was a common tactic of the COINTELPRO program to turn one activist against another with the aim of getting one to kill the other. &#13;
&#13;
  However, in Prof. Manning Marable's autobiography on Malcolm X,  Charles 37X Kenyatta was a named by as an informant for the Bureau of Special Services, a special department within the New York City Police tasked with monitoring and keeping political activists under surveillance. His group, the Harlem Mau Mau, were also targeted by COINTELPRO as threats to national security.&#13;
&#13;
  This document obviously complicates the story of Charles 37X Kenyatta and was not discussed in the biographies of Malcolm X and Herman Ferguson.</text>
