Summary: This document compiles declassified CIA and HSCA records related to investigations into the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and associated activities. It references specific file boxes containing security files on Martin Luther King Jr., including his wife Coretta Scott King, alongside FBI reports on civil rights movements, racial unrest in 1967, and Black Power activism. The collection includes CIA surveillance records from Mexico City, FBI investigations into Lee Harvey Oswald and Jack Ruby, and materials related to Cuban exile groups, Soviet embassy activities, and the Warren Commission’s inquiry. It notes the presence of third-party agency documents, such as FBI reports on racial violence, and highlights the sensitivity of classified materials like phone taps and surveillance files. The document also mentions HSCA reviews of CIA files, FOIA litigation over restricted records, and the transfer of these materials to the National Archives for preservation.
