MHCHAOS Agents & Johnny Acid-seeds (Pt. III): The Columbia Comnunes Trigger COINTELPRO Recalibration
🕑 Added 2024-08-26 02:08:10 +0000 UTCWe're back. All aboard the MHCHAOS Agents & Johnny Acid-seeds bus. I couldn't help myself, had to outdo the high benchmark set by Pt. I. Here comes installment #3, clocking in at nearly 6 hrs. I think our MHCHAOS Agents primary & secondary source assemblage is coming along nicely.
In this episode, we set the foundation of our ethnographic & forensic recreation of the Columbia Uprisings, illustrating how the Communes were both a significant moment in New Left history, inciting a new militant stage in various NL groups' political development, and also how the Communes triggered the formalization & reprioritization of COINTELPRO, showing how it looms large over the history of American counterintel & counterinsurgency in the past 60 years. We also roll out some proper COINTELPRO & targeting of New Left and Civil Rights mvmt context to effectively situate our half audio-documentary, half Ramparts report Columbia Uprising history.
The main, new sources for this one are:
Vander Wall & Churchill's - The COINTELPRO PAPERS
Joshua Melville - American Time Bomb
Ramparts (May, '68 Issue) - "[An Exclusive Report] The Siege of Columbia"
The Columbia Revolt documentary
And a couple Democracy Now! Clips
I'm in the middle of prepping to move, so the index & routine notes may arrive in a separate post or else I may revise this a little later.

That's high praise, Tarrvis. Thanks so much for tuning in & supporting the show. We'll be back to the "MHCHAOS Agents..." series in the very near future, there's a ton more in the tank on that one.

Klonny, thoroughly enjoying this series. Truly appreciate all the work you put in to your research. You fill the Jimmy Falun Gong shaped hole in my heart.
