71. His book, ''The Echo from Dealey Plaza,'' made my heart feel like it weighs 140,000 tons.

Secret Service Agent Abraham Bolden endured the most vile form of racism -- from allegedly "educated" government servants while in the Secret Service. After the assassination, he stepped forward and volunteered what he knew about the Chicago Plot -- something that casts a very different light on the events in Dallas. For his trouble stepping forward and attempting -- he never was interviewed -- to contact the Warren Commission, he was railroaded on the testimony of a corrupt informer, a man Bolden had helped send to prison.

The great author Edwin Black wrote about the Chicago Plot back in 1976. The article is available online in PDF form:
