The origin of the story begins in 1971 at the height of the Vietnam War and the civil rights movement when a group of activists broke into an FBI office in Media, PA.

The papers documented Hoover’s 50-year obsession with finding and destroying a "Black Messiah". What Hoover in his evil genius never considered was if there was a "Black Messiah" out there, he might not be Black. This is the story of Hoover's hunt, which left a trail of assassination and destruction.
