Flint Taylor--December 4, 1969

The Ben Joravsky Show

In preparation of publication of his latest book on the assassination of Fred Hampton, Flint Taylor talks about the role of the FBI, and the police in the murder and the role of Mayor Richard J. Daley and the media in the coverup. Not the finest of moments for the Tribune, that's for sure. Everything you need to know about that day in infamy and its ongoing relevance. They just lied, lied, lied. Hampton was killed 55 years ago--on December 4, 1969 as he was sleeping in his apartment at 2337 W. Monroe right here in Chicago. A radical lawyer, Flint represented Hampton's family in 13 years of litigation.
