JFK Assassination Records: Key Takeaways

Pulitzer Prize-winning historian and Harvard professor Fred Logevall discusses the history and context of recently declassified files relating to President John F. Kennedy. Earlier this year, in accordance with a Presidential directive and in an effort to maximize transparency, all records previously withheld for classification in the President John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection were released. Among the key takeaways from these National Archives papers are a deeper understanding of CIA operations in the early 1960s, particularly in Latin America, and new details about intelligence sources inside the Cuban government. Alan Price, director of the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum, moderates.
