The daughter of Robert F. Kennedy shares personal remembrances of her father and through conversations with politicians, media personalities, celebrities and leaders, explores the influence that he continues to have on the issues at the heart of America's identity.

Robert F. Kennedy staunchly advocated for civil rights, education, justice, and peace; his message transcended race, class, and creed, resonating deeply within and across America. He was the leading candidate for the Democratic nomination for the presidency and was expected to run against Republican Richard Nixon in the 1968 presidential election, following in the footsteps of his late brother John. After winning the California presidential primary on June 5, 1968, Robert Kennedy was shot, and he died the following day. He was forty-two.

Fifty years later, Robert Kennedy's passions and concerns and the issues he championed are -- for better and worse-still so relevant. Ripples of Hope explores Kennedy's influence on issues at the heart of America's identity today, including moral courage, economic and social justice, the role of government, international relations, youth, violence, and support for minority groups, among other salient topics.

Ripples of Hope captures the legacy of former senator and U.S. attorney general Robert F. Kennedy through commentary from his daughter, as well as interviews with dozens of prominent national and international figures who have been inspired by him. They include Barack Obama, John Lewis, Marian Wright Edelman, Alfre Woodard, Harry Belafonte, Bono, George Clooney, Gloria Steinem, and more. They share personal accounts and stories of how Kennedy's words, life, and values have influenced their lives, choices, and actions. Through these interviews, Kerry Kennedy aims to enlighten people anew about her father's legacy and bring to life RFK's values and passions, using as milestones the end of his last campaign and a life that was cut off much too soon.

Thurston Clarke provides a powerful foreword to the book with his previous reporting on RFK's funeral train.

This kindlebook of Robert F. Kennedy; Ripples of Hope: Kerry Kennedy In Conversation With Heads of State, Business Leaders, Influencers, and Activists About Her Father’s Impact On Their Lives by Kerry Kennedy gives both diverse and informative viewpoints. For instance, there is a wide range of famous people from various walks of life featured in this kindlebook indirectly andor directly influenced by Robert F. Kennedy in some way. I was also reminded how much more when it comes to history that would be informative for me to study up on (such as how one initiative to help families have enough to eat was handled prior to the 1970s that was a controversial way to try to get certain families to be forced to migrate north, information on multiple visits/political engagements across the United States that took place in connection with the author’s father’s legacy, and much more.

Thought Provoking Read

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 8, 2018

I was amazed at the level of thought of Robert Kennedy. Some of his quotes a had to read a few times to appreciate what he was saying. I also enjoyed most of the interviews. Some were amazing, because I never new the people were doing so much in their non-public lives.

What was most disappointing is that after 50 years we have made so little progress in valuing all people. It is a great read for understanding Robert Kennedy, the issues with bias and bigotry as well as evaluating our own appreciation of others.

It has been fifty years since the death of Robert F. Kennedy. Thanks to the work of his daughter Kerry,this book pays tribute to his spirit and dedication to an America he believed in. The book covers the people who knew RFK and those who were young at the time of his death. Robert F. Kennedy was a great politician and a man who helped those in time of suffering and tried to stop a war. We truly miss this man after all these years.

Ms Kennedy has created a wonderful collection of anecdotes about her father. He deeply inspired people from all walks of life during his brief life. He continues to do so now thanks in no small part to those who keep his inspiring words and actions alive. Well done!
