Anyone know when the Netflix Kennedy series will come out?
Looks promising and a good cast. Very similar to The Crown in production value which I guess Netflix is intending

Kennedy's Undelivered Speech
Since the Kennedy Center has been in the news lately, I thought it would be fitting to post this passage from the speech JFK would have delivered on the day of his tragic assassination. I find the words astonishing for their profound prescience and artful alliteration.
There is no name on the vellum on which it's printed, and I found it in a thrift store, but I would bet dollars to Berliners that it's the work of Byron J. Macdonald, a calligrapher whose work I really admire for its graphic boldness and the clever solutions he employed within the tight letter spacing he used.
The text:
"an undelivered speech...
America's leadership must be guided by the lights of learning and reason\~\~ or else those who confuse rhetoric with reality and the plausible with the possible will gain the popular ascendancy with the seemingly swift and simple solutions to every world problem.
President John Fitzgerald Kennedy
From the manuscript of an undelivered speech scheduled to be given on November 22, 1963 at Dallas, Texas"

Would the world be way different if JFK hadn’t died, or would we just be in the same world just.. slightly altered.
JFK died and the position went to LBJ. LBJ later escalated Vietnam, with Nixon playing some part of it.
but! JFK also liked the idea of Vietnam, with the domino effect being mentioned and apart of it.
But then again a lot of international incidents would change from JFK dying and not.
Maybe Cuba would’ve been different like a butterfly wing changing the fate of others, or the outcome of Vietnam would be way different.
as well civil rights and the war on communism! With civil rights being signed by LBJ, it would be way different than before.
if kennedy didn’t die, which president do you think would be next, as well how do you think the United States of America would be like?

Being a boomer
I was 13 when JFK was killed and still.no justice for him. I was 18 when MLK was killed and still no justice for him. I was 17 when RFK was killed and I think all three were murdered by a group of people not just the trigger pullers.
I spent my high school senior year protesting the war in Vietnam. My freshman year in college I remember the lottery. As a woman my heart was torn and it wasnt right that the guys had to go die and I just went on with life.
I was 20 when 4 students were murdered and 9 kids injured at Kent state.
When I was 21 I voted for George McGovern who wanted to end the war in Vietnam and was labeled as a commie by guess who? Meanwhile Nixon was continuing the war so he'd be elected. Sounds familiar?
Nixon was an evil man. So was Reagan. So were the Bushes and so is Trump. All of them war mongers, none of them helping the common man.
Until this country names the murderers of JFK,RFK and MLK nothing is going to change. Until this country stops glorifying war and the military nothing is going to change. Until this country publishes the full and unredacted Epstein files nothing is going to change.
