{{Short description|Contested American political term}}
'''Outside agitator''' is a term that has been used to discount political unrest as being driven by outsiders, rather than by internal discontent. The term was popularized during the early stages of the [[Civil Rights Movement]] in the United States, when Southern authorities discounted African-American protests as being driven by Northern white radicals, rather than being legitimate expressions of grievances.<ref name="Milstein2015">{{cite book|author=Cindy Milstein|title=Taking Sides: Revolutionary Solidarity and the Poverty of Liberalism|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=uhbSCgAAQBAJ&pg=PT113|date=21 October 2015|publisher=AK Press|isbn=978-1-84935-232-1|pages=113–}}</ref><ref name="Tischauser1998">{{cite book|author=Leslie Vincent Tischauser|title=Black/white Relations in American History: An Annotated Bibliography|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=7k0cmLCH_mgC&pg=PA93|year=1998|publisher=Scarecrow Press|isbn=978-0-8108-3389-0|pages=93–}}</ref>
