In addition to the sources already mentioned, some of these might be of help:
Ellen Schreker, Many Are the Crimes -- on the proliferation of state
anti-subversive measures, following federal law.
Sarah Hart Brown, Standing Against Dragons -- on anti-subversive attacks on
Southern civil rights lawyers.
On the negative impact of anticommunism on the civil rights movement,
there's a very good chapter in Manning Marable, Race, Reform and Rebellion.
Also, Mark Tushnet's chapter on Southern attacks on civil rights lawyers
after Brown in Making Civil Rights Law is very helpful.
