Website asks people to share stories of JFK legacy

Nov 22, 2013 12:30 am
The Associated Press is reporting on the 50th anniversary of the death of President John F. Kennedy, a new website launching Mon., Nov. 25, will take the focus from past to future by asking people of all ages — even those who were not alive when Kennedy died — to share their thoughts about how he has inspired them. The site, an idea lives on [dot] org, is part of the JFK Library and Museum's commemoration of the anniversary, which is Fri., Nov. 22. The museum also plans a new exhibit of never-before-displayed items from Kennedy's three-day state funeral, including the flag that draped his casket and notes written by First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy. The Kennedy Library Foundation, a nonprofit that raises money to support the library, is spearheading the project. The foundation hopes visitors will upload their own photos, videos, written messages and tweets to answer the question "How do the ideals of John F. Kennedy live on in your life today?" All submissions will become part of the archives at the JFK Library in Boston. The best stories will be featured on the site. Read the full AP story in the Register Star.
