This book is the first of its kind to bring transparency to the FBI's attempts to destroy the incipient Chicano Movement of the 1960s. Utilizing declassified files from the FBI, the author investigates the agency's role in thwarting Cesar E. Chavez's efforts to build a labor union for farm workers and documents the roles of the FBI, California state police, and local police in assisting those who opposed Chavez. Ultimately, The Eagle Has Eyes is a must-read for academics and activists alike.
