Manage episode 503107878 series 3596393
In June 1968, Senator Robert F. Kennedy’s presidential campaign came to a violent end in a Los Angeles hotel kitchen pantry. Just moments after celebrating his victory in the California primary, RFK was shot by Sirhan Sirhan, a young Palestinian immigrant angered by Kennedy’s stance on Israel. In this episode, we trace Kennedy’s life, his hopes for a divided America, the chaotic night of the shooting, and the investigation that followed one of the most shocking political assassinations in U.S. history.
