Southern Poverty Law Center, FBI Director Robert Mueller last year announced with considerable fanfare a new partnership between his agency and civil rights organizations.華盛頓-兩旁的官員從全國有色人種協進會和南方貧窮法律中心，美國聯邦調查局局長羅伯特米勒在去年宣布與相當緊鑼密鼓地建立新的夥伴關係，其管轄的機構和民權組織。 The goal: To bring justice in long-ignored murders from the civil rights era.目標：使司法在長期忽略的謀殺案，從公民權利的時代。 The

come to question the government’s motives.民事權利的領導人出席了穆勒的2007年2月新聞發布會-J ohnJ ackson評價的全國有色人種協進會，誰現在工程為一家私人公司，和理查德科恩，主任南部貧窮法律中心-來質疑政府的動機。 “I’ve been disappointed that more cases have not been brought,”

ashamed, unwilling to bear witness against relatives who did the Ku Klux Klan’s bidding.其他人感到羞愧，不願承擔對證人的親屬誰沒有三K黨的投標。 Yet some killers have been convicted — before the FBI’s new initiative was announced.然而，一些殺手已被定罪-前美國聯邦調查局的新倡議是宣布。 Those successes were due in large part to the relentless efforts of survivors, journalists and prosecutors, and to the declassification of secret documents from the segregationist Mississippi State Sovereignty Commission, an agency that spied on blacks and civil rights workers and was connected to racial killings.這些成功在很大程度上應歸功於部分向不懈努力的倖存者，記者和檢察官，並能解密的秘密文件，從種族隔離密西西比州國家主權委員會，一個間諜機構，對黑人和公民權利的工人，並連接到種族屠殺。 Commission records were finally released in 1998 after a 21-year legal battle.委員會的紀錄，最後被釋放了在1998年後21年的法律大戰。 Since 1989, state and federal authorities have made about 29 arrests, leading to 23 convictions, according to civil rights organizations and others.自1989年以來，州和聯邦當局已逮捕約29 ，導致23日被法庭定罪，根據公民權利組織和其他組織。 Those cases include:這些案件包括： • Byron De La Beckwith’s conviction in 1994 of murdering Medgar Evers, the first NAACP field secretary in

prosecuted or even fully investigated.但對於每一個信念，有許多殺戮從來沒有被起訴或什至進行充分調查。 Nineteen years ago, the Southern Poverty Law Center, a civil rights group based in Montgomery, Ala., began compiling a list of those unsolved killings.十九年前，南部貧窮法律中心，一個民權組織總部設在蒙哥馬利，阿拉巴馬州，開始編制一份名單，這些懸而未決的殺戮。 It is called “The Forgotten,” and contains more than 70 names dating to the 1940s.這是所謂的“被遺忘” ，並載有70多個名稱可追溯至20世紀40年代。

review.這是從這些文件，以及提交的材料由全國有色人種協進會和其他人，聯邦調查局的冷戰情況下主動發現的95例進行檢討。 “We cannot turn back the clock. “我們不能回頭的時鐘。 We cannot right these wrongs.我們不能正確的這些錯誤。 But we can try to bring a measure of justice to those who remain,” Mueller said last year, joined by then-Attorney General Alberto Gonzales.但我們可以嘗試把一個措施，司法對那些誰留， “穆勒說，去年，參加由當時的司法部長阿爾韋托岡薩雷斯。 Gonzales, seven months away from resigning under fire, also pledged to chase justice.岡薩雷斯，七個月遠離辭職，根據消防，還承諾追逐正義。 “We hope we can bring closure to some of these cases,” he said. “我們希望我們能夠帶來一些封閉這些案件的， ”他說。 Mueller promised the cases would be sent to FBI field offices for review.穆勒承諾，案件將被送往聯邦調查局總部外辦事處以供審查。 Months later, he testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee that 26 cases had been forwarded to the Justice Department for prosecutorial

the embattled Gonzales in a more favorable light.一些民權領袖，不知是否是一個多努力，鑄在危機四伏的岡薩雷斯在一個更加有利的根據。 “I’ve always wondered about the timing,” said Jackson, who was then chief policy officer for the NAACP. “我總是想知道時間， ”傑克遜說，誰是當時的首席政策官，為全國有色人種協進會。 “There was a lot going on with the attorney general at the time,” he said, referring to Congress members’ demands that Gonzales resign amid criticism of government surveillance programs and alleged political motivations in the firing of several federal prosecutors. “有很多事情與總檢察長在時間， ”他說，是指國會議員要求岡薩雷斯辭職，中，批評政府的監察程序，並指政治動機在射擊的幾個聯邦檢察官。 “We wanted to know,
