That sentiment is meant to appeal to people who had previously never read about Angela Davis, the BPP, The Black Radical Movements, or the FBI's efforts to neutralize them.
Many of the figures from that era were accused at one time or another of being agents. Often accused by people who are afraid of their own shadows and who wouldn't ride when it was go-time.
The accusations are an extension of the efforts to neutralize them, because decades later the same forces want to discredit them and what they accomplished.
Freedom of Information Act would turn up any documented snitching or cooperation by any of those figures.
But random person speculating on Twitter knows who their audience is, and what they will believe.
It is what is.

Now, if you want to know what is putting the battery in people's backs to suddenly start "uncovering" these allegations, I think there's a financial motive.
Davis supports Palestine, and that makes her an enemy to a certain segment of jews. The wealthy ones use their money and resources to discredit her just based her on support for Palestinians.
Here is an example of that from last year

If they can try to block Black heroes from being honored by Black organizations, throwing coins at some YTers to promote nonsense is nothing.
Some of these YTers/social media figures will say anything if the check clears.

1970s Angela Davis looked sexy when she wasnt smiling
If I recall a prominent panther member said it as well. Same with that Asian cat. her being a informant isnt impossible. I know a guy who was outed as an informant that got NAACP awards. The admission is in a book not read by most black folks though so nobody cares.
She’s got a FEW shall we say.... “Suspect” things to say about black men but I don’t know about her being a full blown agent
anyone accusing sister angela of betraying the race is agent
You know her personally bruh?

so this were u dudes went
Cointelpro was heavily invested in neutralizing black organizations and one tactic was to spread rumors that prominent figures were agents in hopes that a zealot would kill them and create wars between opposing organizations like for instance the wars the fbi created between the black panthers and the black liberation army. They also created a war between the black liberation army and the US movement. And many others including your early conflicts between street organizations like the black stone rangers vs the black gangster disciples.
Unfortunately most of our leaders were just unfamiliar with Cointelpro and fell to their tactics.

Ok. I'll play along. Was Juan Williams the author of this book that was "not read by most Black folks"?
Nope. But it dont even matter. Bottomline is its not out of pocket to question these (heroes)
