Behind Closed Doors: The Dark Legacy of the Johns Committee (2000)

This documentary examines the Johns Committee, established by Florida State Senator Charley Johns to identify Communists and homosexuals. While Florida State University and the University of South Florida resisted the committee's inquiries, the University of Florida, led by J. Wayne Reitz, fully cooperated. The investigations had varying impacts: some prominent gay men and lesbians were not targeted, while others suffered severe professional consequences.
