    A Symbol of Virtue Or A Strategy for Votes? John F. Kennedy’s Telephone Call to Coretta King And Its Social And Political Consequences Master’s Thesis Presented to The Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Brandeis University Graduate Program in Comparative History Daniel Thomas Kryder, Advisor In Partial Fullfillment of the Requirements for Master’s Degree by Matthew E. Sullivan May, 2013 ABSTRACT A Symbol of Virtue Or A Strategy for Votes? John F. Kennedy’s Telephone Call to Coretta King And Its Social And Political Consequences A thesis presented to the Graduate Program in Comparative History Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Brandeis University Waltham, Massachusetts By Matt Sullivan This thesis examines the effect of a phone conversation between Kennedy and Coretta Scott King concerning Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr’s unfair imprisonment on the African- American community, and the social and political consequences that followed. By examining Kennedy’s relationship to civil rights before the call, the events surrounding the phone call itself, and the political strategy involved in getting the message of Kennedy’s call to African- Americans, this thesis will attempt to determine Kennedy’s motivations in making the call and if it had any effects. By looking at polling data and voting statistics among African-Americans, this thesis will determine to what extent they supported Kennedy in the election. A chart was developed that examined Kennedy’s motivation for making the call, ranging from instrumental to moral. The effect of the call ranges from a high effect, no effect at all, and a negative effect for Kennedy.
