About this listen
In this episode of Agency Archives, Cipher and Nova examine declassified intelligence files surrounding the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Drawing from internal CIA and FBI documents, they explore surveillance efforts, investigations into suspected connections with anti-Castro Cuban exiles, and the scrutiny placed on Dr. King and Coretta Scott King. The episode also follows independent researchers who used emerging investigative tools and FOIA requests to challenge the Warren Commission and official historical narratives, revealing a tangled legacy of secrecy, intelligence operations, and unanswered questions.
“The very word ‘secrecy’ is repugnant in a free and open society.”— President John F. Kennedy, 1961Resources:
