On 11/3/1979, a caravan of armed klansmen & nazis, supported by the ATF, FBI, & local police, drove through the Black community in Greensboro, NC & carried out a massacre, murdering 5 labor organizers of the Communist Workers Party who had organized an anti-Klan march.
Many of the organizers were doctors who had left the hospitals & started working in the textile mills to try & alleviate the conditions causing workers to develop brown lung disease.
Dr. Michael Nathan had helped raise over $40,000 in medical supplies for Zimbabwe.

The nazis were led by a full time ATF agent named Bernard Butkovich ( https://www.marxists.org/history/erol/ncm-5/cwp-fed-bureau.htm">https://www.marxists.org/history/e... ) who was involved in planning & instigating of the massacre.
The Klan was headed by Edward Dawson ( https://greensboro.com/fbi-informant-on-klan-nazi-shootings-dies-edward-dawson-severed-his-ties-with-the-ku/article_7c018f63-2843-50c9-b285-6aa59539a97c.html">https://greensboro.com/fbi-infor... ), an FBI & Greensboro Police informant who had been recruited by the Feds after several convictions for attacking Black ppl.
Local Police, Informants & Federal Agents were in the front & rear of the Klan/Nazi caravan during the Greensboro Massacre.
Because of the Klan& #39;s history of hooded night raids, the organizers did not anticipate such an open attack & were unprepared.
The Greensboro Massacre was a joint Klan-U.S. intelligence agency operation.
