JFK at UCLA, Nov. 2, 1959 |
Yours truly will be traveling and out of town for about a
week so less blogging than normal is likely.
But we did post on Nov. 22, the 50th anniversary of the
Kennedy assassination, some Kennedy material.
(A phone call involving Kennedy, then-Governor Pat Brown, and young
student Jerry Brown.) Shortly after the
assassination came the killing of Lee Harvey Oswald over the weekend. On the Monday following that weekend, New
York radio commentator and humorist Jean Shepherd deviated from the usual
format of his broadcast to talk about the Kennedy assassination, the office of
president, and the society at that time as he saw it. [We posted Shepherd ribbing UCLA about some
courses offered this past Sunday.]
You can hear that
broadcast in three parts at the links below.
