DescriptionVideotaped oral history interview with Alan J. Weberman. A counterculture activist and assassination researcher in the 1970s, Weberman co-authored "Coup D'Etat in America: The CIA and the Assassination of JFK" (1975). As a result of claims made in the book, convicted Watergate burglar E. Howard Hunt sued Weberman for libel, though he later dropped the suit.
