Robert F. Kennedy Speech (1966)

 

On March 18, 1966, Senator Robert F. Kennedy addressed the students of the University of Mississippi's School of Law. Although protests preceded the event, Kennedy’s speech before a crowd of 6,000 proved successful, generating much goodwill and enthusiasm.

As the Assistant Vice Chancellor for Public Relations and Marketing, Ed Meek took photographs of the day's events, including the Kennedys' arrival at the airport, a buffet luncheon, and the speech itself.

A recording of Kennedy's speech is available in the Robert F. Kennedy Speech Collection.
