After the assassination of John F. Kennedy, Robert Kennedy gave a series of interviews with Anthony Lewis and John Bartlow Martin about his brother’s political career for the “John F. Kennedy Library” on the understanding that they would not be published in his lifetime. In fact, the interviews did not appear until the publication of “Robert Kennedy in his Own Words” in 1988.

In these interviews RFK is very honest about their attitude towards the subject of civil rights. For example, he admits that JFK voted against the 1957 Civil Rights Act. He confesses that because of their privileged life-styles, they only black people they knew when they were young were servants. In an interview with Anthony Lewis (4th December, 1964), RFK explains that they were not interested in the subject of civil rights: “We weren’t thinking of the Negroes in Mississippi or Alabama – what should be done for them. We were thinking of what needed to be done in Massachusetts.”
