“Riley asserts that Stallworth and his colleagues in the FBI’s Counter Intelligence Office spent far more time trying to bring down black radical groups than they ever did screwing with the KKK.’

If the studios really want a good vampire adaptation for TV, they should nab George R. R. Martin’s Fevre Dream, about vampires on steamboats on the Mississippi River and in New Orleans.
