………………….I watched the documentary on……ETHEL KENNEDY……..on HBO……………..At first I wasn’t going to watch it, but I got hooked immediately……..WATCH IT!!!!…….Her story and her and Bobby’s story, and the stories that surrounded them……JFK and their ELEVEN children…..it filled my heart……..It was sobering to realize the difference in RFK and JFK….and what we have today……..POLAR OPPOSITES!…….I can only wonder what Robert Francis Kennedy would think of his son RFK Jr. today…..He is everything his dad wasn’t…..I can’t imagine what his siblings think of their brother…..SHAME……is the only word that I can think of…The path he has taken is so different from theirs…..SO DIFFERENT THAN WHAT THEIR FATHER HOPED FOR………..If you want to see a documentary about LOVE….HOPE and CARING for all AMERICANS….this is an important film to see…….I think Ethel Kennedy DESERVES so much more credit than what she was ever given…….Perfect….maybe not, but who is?….She brought her eleven children up practically by herself, and for the most part did an incredible job…….So much loss…..so much tragedy…….so much LOVE.
Louis, thanks for the tip about Ethel Kennedy. I will be sure to watch. I watched a short, and I thought touching, documentary last night called The Quilters on Netflix. It’s the story of some men in a maximum security prison in Missouri. It proves that people who are incarcerated can still contribute to society. Some of the quilts they make are quite beautiful.
