Did FBI Send Racist Coloring Books to White Families in 1960s?

Several websites are reporting that the FBI mailed racist coloring books to white families in the 1960s in an effort to discredit the Black Panthers.
The drawings depict black people hitting and shooting police, who are depicted as pigs.
Websites such as infoWars.com and AshtarCommandCrew.net claim the coloring book was created by the FBI’s COINTELPRO, or Counter Intelligence Program.
COINTELPRO existed from 1956 to 1971 to discredit any organization considered subversive.
