dec 16, 2008 - FBI Releases the DIOG
Description:
The Domestic Investigations and Operations Guide (DIOG) was issued to help implement the new Attorney General’s Guidelines for Domestic FBI Operations that were issued earlier that year, (also on timeline).
This first version institutionalized suspicion of Muslim Americans by allowing the FBI to map “locations of concentrated ethnic communities” and “ethnic-oriented businesses and other facilities” as permissible means of gathering information about potential terrorism.
Essentially, the DIOG sanctioned racial/ethnic profiling.
