More importantly perhaps, Udall called on all Americans to move away from our emphasis on economic growth and consumerism and toward quality of life, and a new politics centered on beauty, frugal living, appreciation of nature and the arts, and a recognition of the Earth’s limits. This film will be widely used by activists and in the classroom to inspire environmental stewardship, social justice and the less polarized approach to politics that Udall successfully pursued. We hope this power point will give you a sense of the film, and the quality of our advisors and production team.

  • The President and the Poet
    roger mills The President and the Poet aturday morning, October 26, 1963. S Early ground fog obscured the Connecticut Valley, but overhead the sky was clear; by 9 a.m., the fog burned off. According to the White House appointment book, President John F. Kennedy left the White House at 9:20 a.m. for Andrews Air Force Base, where he and his party boarded Air Force One for Westover Air Force Base in Massachusetts. At 11:30 a.m., they boarded three waiting helicop- ters at Westover. Interior Secretary Stewart Udall rode with the president. (White House appointment book, 1963.) Minutes later, the helicopters thundered over the practice fields just downhill from the Amherst College gymnasium. Kennedy’s speech at the convocation, held in “The Cage” (Amherst’s field house), began just before midday. Library dedication at the construc- tion site began a few minutes after 1 p.m. At 2:05 p.m., the helicopters lifted off. (White House appointment book, 1963.) Three weeks later, the president was dead. Press coverage of Kennedy’s speech at Amherst was modest. An ar- ticle in the Sunday New York Times described the event as “without any overt political tones” and emphasized Kennedy’s friendship with Frost (Weaver). The Times article included a few quotes from the convoca- tion speech, and gave a modest nod to Archibald MacLeish, three-time Pulitzer Prize–winner and former Librarian of Congress. In contrast, the front page of the newspaper had three above-the-fold Cold War head- lines featuring Russia: “Soviet bars race with U.S.
