    “My brother need not be idolized or enlarged in death beyond what he was in life. Be remembered simply as a good and decent man who saw wrong and tried to right it, saw suffering and tried to heal it, saw war and tried to stop it.” RIP, Bobby.

      TheSpritz0 Not only that, but the most compassionate and honorable person I think I've ever seen. He cared about others in a way that you can tell wasn't fake or was easy to discredit, and how he could simply bring so many different types of ppl together was simply awe inspiring. The crowds speak for themselves. Easily the greatest person I've ever seen.

    At the beginning, when the reporter accidently said "the commission that President Kennedy..." Bobby quickly asked, "you want to start again?" It was no ordinary flub. It clearly pushed emotion buttons in the senator to hear that.

    I disagree with RFK's emphasis on bringing in private business from outside African American communities. I think what was needed was to find ways to encourage healing and development from within those communities, through efforts led by African Americans. Still, his death was a terrible loss to this country. He was a man of vision and compassion who was uniquely positioned to lead the way forward.

    • @spockboy
      @spockboy 2 роки тому +5

      I think bringing in business from outside was the first step. It would actually create opportunities for African Americans to create their own businesses once the area was thriving again.

      You don’t have to look far to see the model that Kennedy wanted for urban restoration: Bedford-Stuyvesant in New York City. He initiated a renewal project of that dilapidated ghetto area. As of 2010, Bedford Stuyvesant Restoration Corporation had constructed or rehabilitated 2200 housing units in the neighborhood, provided mortgage financing to nearly 1500 homeowners, brought $375 million in investments to the community, and created over 20,000 jobs.

    What I notice here is genuine reporters asking heavy, consequential questions and a true political leader fielding all of them politely, eloquently and with nuance. Bob Kennedy didn’t lambaste anyone here, he was always respectful to the press and colleagues alike. And Ron Johnson attempts to avoid questions from a reporter by pretending to be on his cell.

    • @mobyjoe1

      The media worked with the Kennedys as to even give them questions in advance to prep their answers. Having said that I'm still a big fan of JFK and RFK.
