Vice President Lyndon Johnson took the oath of office while the widowed Jackie Kennedy stood in the background, still wearing a dress that bore the stains of her late husband’s blood.
Never understood why she didn't change beforehand and questioned why she needed to be there next to him.

Conspiracy theories spread rapidly in living rooms across the nation as reports about the accused assassin Lee Harvey Oswald circulated.
I find it interesting that this is still a common and popular conspiracy theory. It puts into perspective that people believe in conspiracy theories when they are scared of the uncertainty and confusion.

Truman vetoed the law. “In a free country,” Truman famously responded, “we punish men for the crimes they commit, but never for the opinions they hold.”
Honestly impressive that a president said this. I do not think that the past couple of presidents we have had would say anything similar to this.

By 1948, Europe was divided between democratic and Communist states along a line that corresponded to the orientation of the two superpowers whose armies had liberated Europe from the Nazis.
I find it interesting that two countries have such power and influence over other countries around the world.

I find it interesting how in all of the images on the poster everyone seems peaceful and happy. It represents the dream of life postwar. It is also heartbreaking that most of the goals/dreams were not achieved until recently. The poster also alludes to how the right to vote will lead to everyone being successful in their own way.
