Friend,

Violent white supremacy is on the rise, but the FBI is ignoring this very real domestic threat. Instead, the agency is tracking Black activists who are fighting for racial justice and treating groups protesting the Trump administration's inhumane immigration policies as "extremist organizations."[1] We need your help to fight back.

At Free Press Action, we sound the alarm when people’s rights are in danger. That’s why we’ve repeatedly called on the FBI to stop targeting activists. Your gift of $5 or more today will boost our efforts to end unwarranted government surveillance.

The FBI has historically used surveillance and infiltration to disrupt protest movements (as it did with COINTELPRO, which targeted civil-rights leaders, antiwar activists and others in the 1950s and ’60s). This dangerous trend has continued under Trump — the Bureau is targeting activists at a terrifying rate and labeling nonviolent protest movements (like Black Lives Matter) as “extremist.”

The right to protest is protected under the First Amendment. And we’re committed to fighting this abuse of government power. Chip in $5 or whatever you can to support our work to safeguard activists' constitutional rights.
