CIA Mind Control - Radio Health Journal

“Mind Control,” and Psychedelics, and the CIA

You are here: Home / Archive / Feature Stories / “Mind Control,” and Psychedelics, and the CIA
Published: November 3, 2019 by RHJ Producer

Intelligence agencies have long sought ways to control the mind to get people to do their bidding. An author discusses his investigation into the Central Intelligence Agency’s (CIA) mind control efforts in the 1950’s and ’60s through the use of psychedelic drugs, which unwittingly led to an explosion of the drugs’ use.
