Robert F. Kennedy
Robert F. Kennedy was an American politician and lawyer who served as the U.S. Attorney General from 1961 to 1964 under his brother, President John F. Kennedy. He was a prominent advocate for civil rights and social justice, and he played a key role in the fight against organized crime. Tragically, Kennedy was assassinated on June 5, 1968, shortly after delivering a victory speech following his win in the California primary during his campaign for the presidency. His assassination further deepened the national trauma surrounding political violence in the United States.
Born on Nov 20, 1925 (99 years old)
