A Rising Star Cut Short
Robert Kennedy was a charismatic and visionary leader who had emerged as a powerful force in the Democratic Party. His assassination, just five months after the assassination of his brother, President John F. Kennedy, sent shockwaves throughout the nation and shattered the hopes of a generation.
Schlesinger traces Kennedy's meteoric rise from his childhood in Massachusetts to his service as Attorney General in his brother's administration. He paints a vivid picture of Kennedy as a tireless advocate for the poor, the marginalized, and the underrepresented. Kennedy's unwavering commitment to social justice made him a target for those who sought to silence his voice.
The Night of the Assassination
On the night of June 5th, as Kennedy celebrated his victory in the California primary, he was shot and killed by Sirhan Sirhan, a young Palestinian immigrant who harbored a deep resentment towards Kennedy's support for Israel.
Schlesinger provides a chillingly detailed reconstruction of the events leading up to and following the assassination. He examines the security lapses that allowed Sirhan to gain access to Kennedy, the chaotic aftermath, and the subsequent investigations into the tragedy.
