A student at University of Massachusetts Dartmouth reqeusted Mao’s Little Red Book for research through an interlibrary loan. That’s when Homeland Security showed up:
He was later visited at his parents’ home in New Bedford by two agents of the Department of Homeland Security, the professors told the Standard-Times. The professors said the student was told by the agents that the book is on a "watch list," and that his background, which included significant time abroad, triggered them to investigate the student further.
