  • Case Closed Or Evidence Ignored? John H. Davis
    CASE CLOSED OR EVIDENCE IGNORED? JOHN H. DAVIS CASE CLOSED OR EVIDENCE IGNORED? Gerald Posner's book, CASE CLOSED - Lee Harvey Oswald and The Assassination of JFK, is essentially a lawyer's prosecutorial brief against Oswald as the lone, unaided assassin of President Kennedy, emphasizing the slender evidence for his sole guilt, and downplaying, even ignoring, the substantial body of evidence that suggests he might have had confederates. The book contains nothing new except a wildly implausible theory of the first shot fired at the presidential motorcade in Dealey Plaza. Essentially the book is a re-hash of a thirty-year-old discredited theory that repeats many of the failings of the Warren Commission's deeply flawed 1964 investigation. Along the way Mr. Posner is guilty of gross misstatements of fact and significant selective omission of crucial evidence. Mr. Posner's new theory of the first shot is perhaps the most implausible of any JFK assassination writer, including the wildest conspiracy theorists. Posner would have us believe that Lee Harvey Oswald's first shot was fired between Zapruder film frames 160 and 166 through the foliage of a tree and was deflected away from the presidential motorcade by a branch. Any marksman knows that his first shot at a target is always 2 his best shot because he has time to aim without the interference of having to operate the bolt in a hurry to load. Posner would have the marksman Oswald take his first shot through a thicket of tree branches and leaves when he couldn't clearly see his target.

Kennedy’s life, RFK was bereft, not only of a brother he loved, but a role that had given meaning to his life; he had suppressed his own ambitions for the sake of the Kennedy A name. JFK’s death plunged him into unremitting pain and grief, and left him struggling to find his own voice. In his suffering he began to empathize with impoverished Americans and others who were marginalized or disenfranchised – African-Americans, Hispanics, Native Americans. Just as he began to discover his own identity and move beyond the shadow of his brother, he, too, was assassinated. On Monday, October 4, American Experience presents RFK, written and directed by David Grubin (Abraham and Mary Lincoln: A House Divided, TR: The Story of Theodore Roosevelt, FDR, LBJ), and produced by David Grubin and Sarah Colt. An in-depth look at the film and at the life of RFK will be provided on a companion Web site at www.pbs.org/amex/rfk. “RFK is a story about change and suffering,” says Grubin. “Robert Kennedy not only changed his mind about the great issues of his day – civil rights and the war in Vietnam – he changed himself. I wanted to explore his enormous capacity for growth and its relationship to the death of his brother, clearly the defining moment in his life.” In the tradition of American Experience’s acclaimed presidential portraits, this new biography features interviews with historians, journalists and biographers.

  • Pov-Koch-Discussion-Guide-Print.Pdf
    POV Community Engagement & Education Discussion GuiDe Koch A Film by Neil Barsky www.pbs.org/pov LETTER FROM THE FILMMAKER Making a documentary about ed Koch was an easy call. To this day, i cannot think of a new Yorker as popular or as polariz - ing. ed Koch’s story is in many ways the story of the city. i was born in the Bronx in 1958 and my family moved to the suburbs when i was 4. When i returned to the city to attend the Walden school on Manhattan’s upper West side, i was like a freed bird. new York in those days was dangerous, dirty and utterly dysfunctional; it was also magical. For most of Koch’s mayoralty (1978-1989), i was either a student or a young reporter, and i would have given a kidney to cover city Hall for one of the city’s major newspapers. it was not to be, and on some level this film is my way of making up for the lost opportunity. Koch proved a perfectly complex character. He was funny and he could be a bully; he was charming and also narcissistic. He had a much-speculated-about private life, and he didn’t mind if you asked about it, so long as you didn’t mind being told to mind your own business. He was a man surrounded by friends and admirers, and he was a man alone. once we started shooting the film, it became clear just how personally compelling Koch—then 87—still was. He tirelessly hopped from campaign stop to campaign stop, from speaking engagement to speaking engagement.

  • Robert F. Kennedy and the African American Civil
    ROBERT F. KENNEDY AND THE AFRICAN AMERICAN CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT Joseph Aloysius Hennessey 1 DEDICATED TO HELEN KEYES “History is progress through the transmission of acquired skills from one generation to another.” - EDWARD HALLET CARR. “Only through education does one come to be dissatisfied with his own knowledge, and only through teaching others does one come to realize the uncomfortable inadequacy of his knowledge. Being dissatisfied with his own knowledge, one then realizes that the trouble lies with himself, and realizing the uncomfortable inadequacy of his knowledge, one then feels stimulated to improve himself.” - CONFUCIUS. “It is vital for us as much as them that our young feel that change is possible, that they will be heard, that the follies and the cruelties of the world will yield, however grudgingly, to the sacrifices they are prepared to make.” - ROBERT F. KENNED 2 INTRODUCTION Two popular beliefs exist about Robert F. Kennedy and his experience with the Civil Rights Movement. The first belief, articulated in such accounts as Arthur Schlesinger, Jr.'s Robert F. Kennedy and His Times, and Carl Brauer's John Kennedy and the Second Reconstruction, is that Robert Kennedy was fully aware of the injustice of racial and civil bigotry upon taking over as the Attorney General and that he moved boldly in coordination with Civil Rights Leaders to address the deprivation of civil rights for African-Americans in this country. The other account, made popular through such books as Jack Newfield's Robert F. Kennedy: A Memoir, claim that the period of grief and introspection following the death of Bobby's brother John Kennedy caused Robert Kennedy to earnestly and spiritually embrace civil rights through an identification and sympathy with the "have nots" of American society.

    »-r /Jo, 5^0 A STRATEGIC PERSPECTIVE: ROBERT F. KENNEDY'S DISSENT ON THE VIETNAM WAR—I966-I968 Craig W. Cutbirth A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 1976 An'nrnvprl hv T)r»r».toral nmrtmi ttee* i q ABSTRACT The Vietnam war -was one of the most hitter and divisive issues of the turbulent 1960’s. One American leader -who interacted with this issue was Robert F. Kennedy, United States Senator from New York. He was an ambitious man who had been the second most powerful man in the country during the Administration of John F. Kennedy. He was an acknowledged presidential aspirant. His actions and pronouncements attracted widespread attention—a source of potential benefit and danger for him. Kennedy planned his statements on the war with the utmost caution. He was particularly aware of the consequences of a personal break between himself and President Iyndon B. Johnson, wham Kennedy disliked and mistrusted. Accordingly, this study began with the assumption that Kennedy's planning involved the creation of a strategy through which he approached the Vietnam ,issue. Three of Kennedy's anti-war pronouncements were examined in this study. Each was considered an expression of Kennedy's rhetorical strategy. The nature of strategy was an object of some attention in this study. It was noted that the term has been used in a seemingly-contradictory manner. Accordingly, an attempt was made to clarify the nature of rhetorical strategy. It was determined that strategy is created to achieve some goal, and is implemented by certain tactics designed to energize audience support for the li rhetors position, thus achieving the desired goal.

Dr. Wil Linkugel's interest and patience throughout this task made my job much easier. Dr. Ellen Gold's knowledge of Robert Kennedy provided me with an important resource, and her criticism served as a stimulus to my own thought. Finally, I want to thank Dr. Karlyn Kohrs Campbell for serving as my advisor. She admirably filled that role in the best sense of the term. Her encouragement, her under- standing, and her red pen helped to make this investigation possible. I do not think I can truly express my appreciation to the friends and family to whom I shall always remain indebted. To Ed Hinck, Andy Rist, Bob House, and Julie Patterson, I appreciate the helpful advice and the social distraction. My parents and my in-laws provided the kind of emotional and financial support without which this study would have been impossible. Most important, Lawrie was always there to preserve my sanity. I owe too much to her ever to express in a few short words.
