JFK, Dallas, and The Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza

Interactive videoconferencing program presented by The Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza. The Presidential Primary Sources Project is a collaboration between the National Park Service, U.S. Presidential Libraries and Museums, other cultural and historic organizations, and the Internet2 community. Presentation Date: February 7, 2019 Presentation Description: The shots that killed President John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963, were fired from the sixth floor of a nondescript warehouse at the edge of Dealey Plaza in downtown Dallas. After more than two decades of debate and community contemplation, that floor in the Texas School Book Depository became a museum exhibit in 1989 and was designated part of a National Historic Landmark District in 1993. In this presentation, Curator Stephen Fagin will recount the slow and painful process by which a city and a nation came to terms with its collective memory of the Kennedy assassination and its aftermath. Today, The Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza, the most visited historic site in North Texas, is a careful study in how a community directly confronts tragedy and preserves modern memory.
