Mississippi State Sovereignty Commission
The Mississippi State Sovereignty Commission was a Mississippi state agency that existed from 1956 to 1977. It acted as a de facto intelligence organization, working to keep segregation in place.
It was linked to several murders, and was considered to be closely tied to the Mafia. Conspiracy theorists have tried to link it to the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr., but this has never been proven and evidence is circumstantial.
