SUMMARY:Gallery Talk - PT-109 and the 1960 Campaign
DESCRIPTION:On August 2\, 1943\, Lt. John F. Kennedy’s motor torpedo boat PT-109 was sunk in the Pacific Theater. Kennedy\, clenching a life jacket strap between his teeth to tow one injured crewmember\, swam for four hours to lead survivors to a nearby island. This dramatic tale of World War II heroism framed Senator Kennedy’s political narrative as he ran for president in 1960. This discussion of the impact that the PT-109 story had on Kennedy’s life and career included a special screening of a five-minute 1960 campaign commercial hosted by actor Henry Fonda.

SUMMARY:Gallery Talk - 1960 Campaign Wives
DESCRIPTION:Mrs. Nixon and Mrs. Kennedy both supported their husbands as they campaigned for president but did so in very different ways. Mrs. Nixon accompanied her husband everywhere\, and he referred to her in almost every speech. Mrs. Kennedy hated campaigning and avoided it when possible – aided in part by her pregnancy. This exploration of two unique women and their personalities included clips from the campaign trail as well as 1960 magazines and photographs from the Museum’s collections.

SUMMARY:Teacher Workshop in partnership with The World Affairs Council - Cuba
DESCRIPTION:Cuba\, often at center stage in international affairs\, is again the focus of global attention. After Fidel Castro stepped down after nearly fifty years as Cuba’s leader\, his brother\, Raúl Castro\, embarked upon a series of reforms that are gradually but fundamentally changing the country. The 2014 announcement to normalize Cuba-U.S. relations after over five decades during which the two countries had no diplomatic ties also signified a historic shift. While the 1959 revolution brought opportunities and advances long denied to many Cubans\, others lost property\, jobs\, and the positions they held in Cuban society. Cubans today have very different opinions about their country’s history and its future direction.
