Why the FBI Tracked Albert Einstein for Speaking Out About Black Americans

Описание: Einstein’s fight against racism wasn't just a footnote—it was a threat to the establishment.
While the world knows Albert Einstein for the Theory of Relativity, 2026 scholarship continues to uncover how the FBI viewed his pursuit of social justice as a national threat. Einstein didn't just study the universe; he fought for Black Excellence and Civil Rights at a time when doing so invited federal surveillance.
This documentary reveals the untold Black history of the 20th century, exploring Einstein’s 1,400-page FBI file and his deep alliances with icons like Paul Robeson and W.E.B. Du Bois.
