Inform on your neighbor!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollow Special Agent Christian White on a cheerfully creepy tour of declassified government surveillance documents.

Edgar Hoover, “expose, disrupt, misdirect, discredit or otherwise neutralize” your neighbors! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese are our tax dollars at work, folks; we might as well enjoy it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis script has been performed by writer\/activist L.M. Bogad in theatres, galleries, labor halls, and community centers for the past twelve years.
