Newly Declassified MLK Files: What the Government Didn't Tell Us | Robert Doti | KAJ Politics LIVE
from KAJ Politics LIVE · host Khudania Ajay
Over 230,000 pages of once-secret records on the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. — including CIA, FBI, and State Department files — were released in 2025. Now, for the first time, the public can see the intelligence footprint, COINTELPRO surveillance, and internal debates about James Earl Ray.Robert Doti, a scientist-turned-historian and author of Layers of Complicity, applies forensic discipline to these documents. He explains why the evidence suggests Ray likely fired the shot but didn't stand alone, how the government's hostility to King's anti-war and Poor People's Campaign shaped the narrative, and what the files reveal about Cold War intelligence culture.Join host Khudania Ajay (KAJ) for a clear, evidence-based look at what the government kept secret — and why it still matters.Support independent journalism at https://kajmasterclass.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/kaj-politics-live--7116411/support.KAJ Masterclass MediaIndependent editorial conversations helping you think better, decide better and understand the world.https://www.kajmasterclass.com
