When I sit at the front porch of our Cape house, in the sunshine and sea-freshened air, I think of them often: my parents and my brothers and sisters, all departed now save for Jean and myself. And each alive and vibrant in my memory. I remember how each of us, distinct and autonomous from one another though we were, melded wholeheartedly into a family, a self-contained universe of love and deepest truths that could not be comprehended by the outside world.
true compass, ted kennedy .

“We in the United States believe in the protection of minorities; we recognize the contributions that they can make and the leadership that they can provide; and we do not believe that any people - whether majority or minority, or individual human beings - are 'expendable' in the cause of theory or of policy.” - Robert F. Kennedy Sr

“Jackie, surely as much as Jack, helped make the magic we called Camelot. But when an assassins bullets shattered the dream, she showed the world that there was an unimagined strength beneath the silk. Her courage, her dignity, her grave restraint in the face of such horror held this nation together and showed us how to grieve.”
- Hugh Sidney

next person who even jokingly says that rosemary’s lobotomy is what triggered the kennedy curse is getting their entire bloodline cursed
#for the record i don’t believe in the curse#sometimes life is horrific and filled with grief and there’s no supernatural element there#and ppl who say this are implying that the rest of the family deserved to suffer and die#like. besides the assassinations did kathleen deserve to die in a plane crash?#did john jr and carolyn deserve it to die in one too?#was jackie watching her husband’s brain explode just a consequence of something her father in law did?#im not defending the many awful things the kennedy family has done and been complicit in#but some of you are just malicious people#also joseph sr did not deserve his stroke#disability is not a punishment#anyways it’s clear that all some of you know about rosemary kennedy is that she was lobotomized and that’s where your research stops#she wanted to be a kindergarten teacher. she loved her family (especially her sister eunice)#she had desires and goals and dreams just like all the kennedys did#and if you look into any prominent american disabilities programs and orgs there’s a good chance the shriver branch is involved with them#they were the closest to rosemary out of any of the kennedy branches#rosemary is to american disability acceptance and activism what her brothers are to american politics#the best way to honor her is to love your disabled friends and family members unconditionally#liz informs you#rosemary kennedy#jfk#john f kennedy#bobby kennedy#rfk#kennedy family#nothing bad evah happens

John was starting to form a relationship with Carolyn’s sisters, especially with Lauren. Lauren had just moved back from Hong Kong and bought an apartment on White Street in Tribeca, around the corner from John and Carolyn, a big loft. She was dating Bobby Shriver—it was a long-distance thing because Bobby was in L.A. She was a VP at Morgan Stanley—her office was across the street from George. We were around the same age, and we became friends. We’d go out for drinks, and when people would ask, “What do you do?” she’d answer, “I work at a bank.” I asked, “Why do you say it like you’re a teller?” - JFK JR Oral Biography

Anthony Shriver put out that letter “supporting people with autism” which is wild because he was the only cousin openly supporting RFK jr. The hypocrisy is astounding. Like did he think people wouldn’t remember this?
i'd personally like to speak with whoever decided to name rfk jr after his father because my good friend bobby doesn't deserve to have his legacy tainted with this type of ugliness!
#and the gag of it all was the name thing was probably bobby's idea in the first place!#asks#answered asks#asks answered#my good friend bobby kennedy

JFK nicknamed his sister-in-law, Joan Kennedy, ”The Dish” in 1960.
“Most people don’t know it, but in 1960 that expression was quite a compliment … especially coming from Jack Kennedy.”
Who did he first say the nickname to, Ted?
“No, he said it to me! And then, later, to the Senator.”
I bet he was happy about that?
“Oh yes, quite proud.”
Did you have a favorite brother in law?
“If I did, I wouldn’t tell you. They were so different. There was something about Jack. Both were very nice to me. That’s the important thing, isn’t it?”

persuasion, jane austen / simone de beauvoir / dirge without music, edna st. vincent millay .
#yes jack & bobby were great but without these women? they wouldn’t have gone very far and i mean that#they have been stereotyped and stashed away in the background but they were so vital to the success & longevity of the kennedy family/legac#not saying they were perfect#by any means#. however the dull lazy and misogynistic lens they’ve always been placed under is annoying#and none of the kennedy’s were perfect anyway so#still fuck joe senior though!#and i do feel like their stories do deserve to be recontextualized#men wrote about these women first and we’ve stuck with their preconceived notions ever since.#despite being made to believe that they were accessories to the men -> so much of their hard work service and efforts have had#so much impact and the ripple effects are felt to this day#kennedy web weaving#kennedy women#jackie kennedy#rose kennedy#eunice kennedy shriver#jean kennedy#ethel kennedy#pat kennedy#joan kennedy#women#web weaving#womanhood#jane austen#simone de beauvoir#kennedy family#jfk#rfk

bobby and jackie and jack from merrily is such a good song because sargent shriver wasn't even "the one in the army". joe jr and teddy were in the army but . sargent was actually just that guy's name....
