American Studies

Today we held a class discussion of the JFK assassination.  Some of the concepts discussed were the background of Lee Harvey Oswald, details of the assassination, the killing of Oswald, etc.  We also discussed a few questions that remain, like why does this event, nearly 50 years later, still resonate with so many Americans?  How was American society changed by this event?

If you are interested, take a look at the following PBS film entitled American Experience:  Oswald's Ghost
