the head pat!!!!!!

I hope that bobby Kennedy knows how much he is still loved. I hope he knows that people remember him for being courageous and kind, to the point that he has become a point of comparison or model for an ideal politician. I hope he knows that people today don't see him as ruthless and inexperienced but instead as someone who actively worked to change the system he himself benefited from. I hope he knows that countless groups that still struggle to be acknowledged still feel safe and heard in his presence. I hope he knows that his memory and legacy of staying true to his principles will not be overshadowed by his namesake, but that his name will forever be etched into the changing tides of 1960s America. if not for rfk's work and refusal to accept jfk's hesitation on civil rights, would America have been forced to accept equality as quickly? I think not. people sometimes give him credit but he shaped the Kennedy administration more than most people in the cabinet. rfk, on your anniversary, I hope you know that your ability to be an outcast, sitting down while everyone else is clapping, your ability to fight for what you love, invites admiration not questioning. thank for willing to be impatient.

i think i miss my husband
