This April’s Lunchbox Lecture, join us in welcoming co-authors Dennis P. Crawford and Dr. Laura J. Crawford as they discuss their book Robert F. Kennedy: The Road Not Taken – From Nebraska to the White House at the Nebraska History Museum on April 15th from 12 PM to 1 PM.In this insightful lecture, the authors will explore Nebraska’s part in the 1968 Democratic primaries, with Robert F. Kennedy and Eugene McCarthy both campaigning fiercely across the state to prove their ability to win farm states and secure the national nomination.
Through stories of Kennedy’s connections with Nebraskans, from his visit to the Beatrice State Home to his candid conversation with students at Creighton University, the lecture brings to light the campaign moments that shaped his path toward the Democratic nomination and the White House.
Event admission is free. LNKTV will record the lecture and make it available to the public.
Special thanks to the Nebraska State Historical Society Foundation for providing funding for the recording of this event.
