- To mark the 60th anniversary of John F. Kennedy’s death, revisit two exclusive BBC interviews with the US president's mother, Rose, who movingly details the family's intense pride and sorrow.
The profound loss Rose felt at her son John's death would be reflected by the shock and grief that would play out across the US, to the extent that a whole generation would be able to remember exactly where they were when they heard that he had been shot.
When JFK’s life was cut short so shockingly, it sparked a wave of grief and mourning that left an indelible mark on the consciousness of the nation.

Rose Kennedy despite the tragedy of her family, lived to the remarkable age of 104 and passed away in January 1995. May she rest in peace 🕊️
You mean peace?
@@explorer7597 Everything is going to be alright, try not to "fret"
💖🇵🇸
She died on a Sunday. A very Catholic woman.
Rose got the longevity from her mother 1865-1964
She was a very courageous and strong mother ,who had to endure heavy hearted losses seeing a number of her children dying .
She was a c**t. Look what she did to her daughter.
And her husband was no day at the beach!
🥺
It's important to note that of her 9 children, she outlived 4 of them. By 1973, she had buried all but one of her sons. This woman had tremendous strength
Oh man she is struggling so hard here. Generations after me even will feel this. Oh man! Horrible!
Without her strong faith, I think her grief would have destroyed her.
One can't imagine the pain of the mother. She was an extremely strong woman, to lose so many children, but continued. She must have been grounded in her faith and belief in God. I remember the day so raw, as if it was yesterday. I was an 8 year old child in Sierra Leone, West Africa. The JFK era had touched many lives in the developing nations; with the Peace Corps., American cheese and powdered milk provided at school, etc. I was playing in the backyard of my parents home. ( My late dad worked for the government then, and had even been privileged to visit the US on a couple of occasions, representing Sierra Leone at the General Assembly). My parents were out at a function or visiting friends, when I heard the phone ring. I reached in through the window on the back veranda to pick up the call; and my late uncle (who was head of the Sierra Leone Broadcasting Service) on the other end asked for my dad. I told him he was out, and he replied that when he got back, I should tell him that President Kennedy had been shot. May his soul continue to sleep in peace.

She endured more tragedy than most, having lost three sons so tragically.
And a daughter, Kathleen.
Her strength is admirable. From her husband's infidelity to losing her children, she continued to stand firm.
She had great faith
Her husband was unfaithful to her. Her sons were all unfaithful to their wives. Tragic family she bore a great deal of sorrow.
@@lindabrown6110 except for Bobby. He was faithful to his wife Ethel.
@@irawilliams343you’re kidding, right?
@@youknowmysteelo no, I'm not. Bobby was the only Kennedy brother who never smoked, drank alcohol and cheated on his wife. He was even Rose's favorite.
She is with her boys…..her family……..what an example of dignity and strength……my god she was truly a worthy example of a woman…..a mother ❤ rip Mrs. Rose Kennedy…..
It's an unspeakable life. She was human with positives and negatives...I don't know if I could have managed to get out of bed after one loss let alone so many.
I lost a son to cancer sixteen years ago. It's definitely the most difficult thing that I have ever dealt with. He was just 29 years old. What kept me going was that I was a mother to a younger son. He needed to see a mom who valued him and was able to keep moving forward. You never get over losing your child but you learn to live in a different way.
+SueProv. She was a tough-as-nails lady. And she lived to be 104.
@catherinemacaskill1421 God bless you Catherine. I have a friend who lost an athletic vibrant son suddenly to an enlarged heart. It was 8 or 9 years ago. He was 25. Never the same but walks foward.
Rest in peace Mister President
Such a wonderful admirable woman.
Respect for strong woman
Rose Kennedy was an amazing & strong woman who lived for more than a Century
Indeed..absolutely unbreakable faith. Though they didn't tell Rose of Jackie dying, it was too much at that age..
Such a sad ending
Such a beautiful soul
😢😢😢❤my heart broken for her as a mother
What a gracious lady Rose Kennedy was.
What a curse to live to 105 and see your kids murdered and die before you.
People who live the longest are the ones who can take the loss of their loved ones.
A woman told me that her mother died at 60 from heart attack because she was unable to deal with the death of her 62 years old father from kidney cancer just 2 months later.
I remember what I was doing that day, for the rest of my life when I heard the news of President Kennedy's death 🕯️
So do I. I live in Europe and I was just going to sorting out my homework for high school in the evening after dinner. I sat at the table and glanced at the tv when the news came through. It was devastating and we all cried.
You are both lucky to have lived through a time of great belief in the country and forward thinking towards prosperity and peace. I was still decades away from birth yet, I feel through pictures and seeing President Kennedy speaking, just how amazing he truly was. Too many ppl sometimes concentrate on his personal life and irrelevant to us...his womanizing. Yet if they only knew LBJ had more than President Kennedy could wish for in a whole lifetime. Yes, there is evidence and an illegitimate son as proof too. Lbj had unfortunate for JFK, taken on the VP position under bribery, and Jack didn't want to humiliate Jackie publicly, and so took on the man who from the start had been planning the ultimate "step up" with JFK's enemies.. the ones who wanted wars not peace. JFK is a President which we shall not ever see the likes of again.
*_I'm watching JFK's mother speak for the first time. I truly felt the woman's pain deep in my heart, from miles away. It's really not easy at all. It is a very painful experience for a mother to see her son, of whom she was proud of his achievements, die in this way. Imagine, your son became the president of the USA. He is young and happily married. However, in front of the eyes of the whole world, he is brutally murdered as a result of an unknown assassination attempt. Moreover, the real perpetrators can never be identified, tried and punished. There's really no explanation for this. This scandal is happening in one of the most modern countries in the world._*
The assassination of JFK was the disgrace of the United States of America.😢
I will never understand the reason.
RIP to Mr Kennedy
The Kennedys through generations have had a black cloud hovering over them. May they all be resting in peace 🌹
I was born in 68, but I'm totally fascinated with Kennedy assassination and titanic tragedy 😮
R.I.P. JFK 🙏🏽🕯️
Rip Kennedy
i understand im sorry it happened a,loss does hurt but in time we learn to deal withgbe grief life does go on
“The Men Who Killed Kennedy” on RUclips is by far the best documentary. Filled with original interviews
"The Men Who Killed Kennedy" is one of dozens of con jobs selling a conspiratorial bill of goods to the weak-minded.
To focus on the loss of Jack does a disservice to Rose. She lost three of her sons. She lost Joseph in '44 during WW2, Jack in '63, and then Bobby in '68.
And her eldest daughter Kathleen in the 1940s
@@margaretlindsey2234She didn’t care for her though afterwards because Kick married a English Protestant, didn’t even attend her funeral, no one did except for her older brother Joe (I could be wrong, as I don’t remember if she died before or after Joe Jr?) She also didn’t care about Rosemary, even when she found out that her husband ordered a lobotomy on their own daughter, they hid her away, and never told the other kids what had happened to their sister.
@@maria-melek Yes it was brother Joe who attended her wedding. Her parents neither attended her wedding or her funeral. That's not faith, that's some kind of cruel notion to live by, that would cause them to behave that way to their flesh and blood.
@@margaretlindsey2234 Agreed.
@@wintercame her father attended her funeral. In fact she had boarded the ill-fated plane trip to see her father in hopes she could win his consent for her second marriage. Also I don’t think Rose’s refusal to attend was from lack of care. Reportedly she saw Kathleen’s death as God punishing her effectively abandoning her faith by dating a married Protestant who was seeking a divorce in order to marry her. She was hurt but I think her faith both validated her anger at Kathleen and her pain over her death
Peace to you Sister!!
That was difficult to watch. It's sad.
Lady of constant sorrow. God bless her
It is clear that he was a good person, so people are hurting for his death until now
The best Democrat President ever!! Now the Democrats have gone to pot after Kennedy!! Look who's president now unbelievable!!!
Absolutely such a lovely mother Rose Kennedy🌹❤
Truly hits home when she spoke of 'Jack' being here, rather than ever being a President...heartbreaking. She made sure her children grew up healthy as could be, well mannered, educated and truly honorable young ppl. Sad that fate took it away. And for President Kennedy's situation, a murder from the highest element of powers that be in America and Europe too. Rose was not lying when she said JFK would do the most honorable and truest mind for all ppl in life. Nevermind his personal life due to medical etc. JFK was a good true man. And today, I'm saying what a shame he didn't crush and scatter some secret societies, "to the wind" as it's a pivotal time in history when the power of a not so secret cia had completely transfered and cemented their place in Government, where they absolutely have no place. Rest Easy Kennedy family..❤🙏🏻🙏🏻
Rose and Teddy were very close, they had real similarities, for instance in their strong faith, in their need to always see the bright side of the life, no matter what, they had to endure the loss of Joe Jr who was Teddy godfather, Jack and Bobby, and yet they could always have a laugh and sing songs with the family, while Rose played the piano, their faith seemed to be a key element.
Remarkable woman: I have always admired her faith in God and the strength it gave her.
Terribly sad but wow she has strong faith
😮another hurt mum😢
How do you manage to look so young? PRIVILEGE !
Envy doesn’t wear well.
@@priestessthea Nor jealousy, richard doesn't seem to understand that jealousy, anger, hatred, envy ect. ect. ARE all horrible, wasted human emotions.....it's a mental weakness ! richard proudly displays his ignorance too the whole world. Very best wishes and happy holidays to you and yours.
Even after going through everything that she did, she still lived to be 104 years old
The thing is that Jackie Kennedy would had killed herself if she didn't have children.
As she turned into alcohol and pills after JFK was shot.
Her friends were glad that she died before JFK Jr., as she couldn't had bear more pain
Rose Kennedy KICKED ASS!!! ☘️☘️☘️☘️
Air Force One tapes on Nov 22 1963 reveal a telephone call the new President made to JFK's mother. The connection was bad with loud static and buzzing sounds. Mrs Rose Kennedy kept saying 'Hello Hello'. Once LBJ got connected and uttered 'Hello Mrs. Kennedy', that amazing courageous old woman replied 'Yes? Yes Mr. President?' ~ I was so moved with tears by her response
Ure way of seeing things will change
I can’t imagine losing 4 children and not losing my mind and I’m not even a mother.
Greetings 🫖☕ good evening 🌃🙏🙋🏻♀️ I never knew his mother was named Rose
Rest In Peace John F Kennedy he really shouldn't died like that he was a great man and he was a amazing leader he didn't deserve to leave the world like that
Being married to Joe Kennedy must have been traumatic enough.
May all the Kennedys rest in peace 😢❤😢 Australia
God Bless Mrs Rose Kennedy for Her Strong Spirit and Her Love for God. Mrs.Kennedy never wanted Pity Or to Dwell but it's obvious She Suffered Tremendous amounts of Pain.
I Truly Loved and Admired Her Strength.
God Bless
Mrs.Rose Kennedy
R.I.P. 🙏🌹
She was no stronger than many women who buried children. My sis-in-law buried all three of her children. My dads first cousin buried three of her children. Rose didn’t raise her children, her nanny/ governess did.
I don't think women like this exist anymore.
Living until the age of 105, burying her children with one of the them having his brain blown off in-front of the nation was definitely a hard thing bear.
Rose Kennedy became an icon of American motherhood, even though by all serious accounts she was a terrible mother!
A terrible mother ? Her husband was in charge of everything and what he wanted was the end of story
@@highlyfavored2434Exactly, Rose was a great human. Joseph caused the problems & she had no say!
@@craigl0902 he was a ruthless powerful man and father. After his beloved eldest son passed away , he single handedly orchestrated JFK's succession to the white house starting with his seat in Massachusetts.
@@craigl0902 plus he was a massive womanizer too. Rose was a very strong woman.
She wasn't a terrible mother, but she had flaws. She favored Joseph Kennedy Jr. She liked to take trips to Europe, to buy designers clothes. One time when she was leaving Jack who I think was 6 or 7, said "Gee, you are a great mother, to go off and leave your children alone". She was also close Bobby. Joe Sr. was more forgiving towards his children, thought the were all great. Rose expected more from them, Jack was sloppy and more rebellious than his older brother, Kathleen was more like Jack, they were very close, and Rose had a hard time when Kathleen (Kick) married a british protestant, even though he was heir to on of the greatest estates in Britain.
Rip JFK and the rest of his family
WATCHING FROM BRAZIL 🇧🇷
How did she cope with all the tragic events in her life… some woman for one woman!!!
Secret Service Failures ' Always think a Scenario that may make your Surroundings 😢😢😢
Maybe a wiser mother would have steered her children away from politics!
Well it wasn’t really her decision... Joe Kennedy Sr was the one that sent them on that path.
Whenever I hear Donald Trump is having a bad day, a little smile comes across my face.
not surprising coming from a terrorist supporter
??????????????????????????????????????????????????
@@markroberts5183 NPC?????????????????????????
just remember that the Kennedys supported Israel over the barbaric terrorists in the Middle East. That support was why Sirhan Sirhan assassinated Robert Kennedy
Here come the crypto spambots! But what's wiyh the religion spambots?
When are they going to announce it? The truth. It's the Apocalypse the truth needs to come out so everyone can heal.
They’ll conveniently discover and release new evidence once everyone involved has died of old age. Then no one will be held accountable
She’s the double of Bobby!
So sorry for your losses of your children who was killed by the murderers. Your two sons, and loss of Congress Ted Kennedy who died of cancer in his own life.
Her daughter Kathleen killed in a plane and the the daughter that was put away and never seen again after the lobotomy!
Rose Kennedy died in 1995.
She doesn't sound Irish
Because she wasn’t. She was American, born and raised in Boston. Irish descent is not Irish.

Never forget what she did to her daughter
Joe Kennedy the father ws the one who did it!!
@@veravaladez1525 she had an = part in it
✌️
Yes in a way John F Kennedy still lives
yes they didnt expect a local buisness man to be nearby with a camera thankfully he was and people can see with there own eyes the evidence compared to being told what happened by the government
most people didn't see the Zapruder film until 1966 or later; three years after the assassination. They may have seen outtake stills in Time Magazine. But it wasn't live time video of the murder such as you know it today.
yes censorship this is why we need a free and open press that isnt afraid to publish information that the government dont like @@deepseadirt1

What was the reason for RFK assassination. Was LBJ responsible for that also.
It was the mob both times.

I'm all for innovation, but is Amazon's AMK33X really the breakthrough they're making it out to be?
bbc sad that something similar not being done these days
After seeing Amazon's AMK33X in action, I'm convinced we're living in the future already.
The hype around Amazon's AMK33X is reaching fever pitch, and I'm here wondering if we're witnessing the buildup to a seismic shift in consumer technology.
Amazon's AMK33X isn't just another project; it's like watching a symphony of technology and innovation coming together in perfect harmony.
Father you mean 😳🙄 Bones 🦴 do not lie 🤥
💔💔💔💔
What impressed me most is Amazons AMK33X brings all of humanity more forward than what we had in 40 years
Her grief is so obvious. She did what she had to do through her religious convictions. She was brought up in politics, so she was perfect to marry Joe Kennedy. Kennedy did what he wanted to do and kept things from her. He ran a tight ship and was ruthless. Rose prayed and prayed yet could not undo damage . Rest in peace dear lady .
Feels like Amazon's AMK33X is the only thing worth talking about in the tech space right now.
This country might only be saved if AMK33X provides the knowledge and power most of us still lack, hence my post
So, Amazon's AMK33X is the new kid on the block. Let's see if it lives up to the playground rumors.
Every tech head on my feed is either praising or questioning Amazon's AMK33X. What's your stance?
sad about all manipolation
Is Amazon's AMK33X the next big thing or just another blip on the tech radar? The jury's still out.
No one cares
