Join us on our You Tube Channel for our latest episode of  Mysteries of the Enduring Secret.   Could there have been military intelligence personnel in Dealey Plaza on November 22nd whose sole purpose was to capture in real time video format the events that became the actual assassination?  Researcher Steve Osborn became privy to a man who was there and who was part of the team assigned to capture and beam the video back to a central location.  Mr. Osborn first revealed this  in testimony to the Assassination Records Review Board  (ARRB) in 1994. The story was not taken seriously enough to spur additional investigative efforts by the ARRB. Now, hear the entirety of  this story retold by Mr. Osborn himself as Rick Russo and I interview Mr. Osborn on our latest episode of Mysteries of the Enduring Secret. Mr. Russo first encountered Mr. Obsorn almost 30 years ago and later considered  this mystery for inclusion on an episode of the Men Who Killed Kennedy. Watch our ever expanding  series of Mysteries of the Enduring Secret You Tube videos on my YouTube channel JFK The Enduring Secret. Then return  here and join me on my podcast JFK The Enduring Secret which you can find on any of your favorite podcast outlets.

Episode 221 is the fifth and final  episode of a mutli-part wander that  is the story of James Meredith and the Oxford Riots. Meredith was the first black man admitted to the University of Mississippi. Most  who are familiar with the history, recall  the tense moment of his admission, but few understand the extent of the violence which encompassed the event.  By the end of September 1962, Meredith's attempt at  registration had become  an ongoing affair. After his initial rejection , he filed a lawsuit in federal court claiming racial discrimination   and the suit prevailed  and it set the stage for a massive showdown as the beginning of the fall school semester came upon the university. The story had beginnings reminiscent of the Little Rock 7 entering Little Rock High School  and the intervention by the armed forces in that integration case. Mississippi Governor Ross Barnett would adopt the Doctrine of Interposition and assert that the state of Mississippi had the right to defy a federal court order and declare a federal law null and void.  He would  instruct all state employees and officers including law enforcement to resist the admittance of James Meredith to Ole Miss.  The situation would escalate and become the largest invocation of the Insurrection Act of 1806, Over 31,000 national guardsman,  federal marshals, other law enforcement officers and members of the military  would be activated for the event. The degree of domestic disturbance and  the related violence and extensive  involvement of the military would be taken to a new level.  A level not seen in prior civil rights disturbances,  and a level that would set the stage for intense retribution from the  radical right. This wander into the depth of violence and hate is done to demonstrate that which was present in the form of danger to all who opposed the civil rights movement and especially leaders such as John F. Kennedy, Robert Kennedy and 
members of the civil rights movement including Martin Luther King.
 
Even as early as 1964, rumors and serious concerns over  the lone gunman theory and the evidence that might contravene it,  were becoming a major concern for the government and the commission. Conspiracy theories were contrary to the government's stated narrative from the very beginning. This  real-life story is more fascinating than fiction.  No matter whether you are a serious researcher or a casual student, you will enjoy the fact filled narrative and story as  we relive one of the most shocking moments in American History. An event that changed the nation and changed the world forever.

Episode 216 is the fifth episode covering Joseph Milteer and the radical right wing of America. This episode is  the  third  in a  mini-series wander that gives an overview of the civil rights movement as we traverse through the 1950's and early 1960's.  In episode 216 we continue with our chronology of events in 1960 and 1961 including the freedom bus rides and more. This series begins to explore more broadly  the impact of the civil rights movement and the clash of civilization that began to accelerate in the 1950's. The landmark U.S. Supreme Court decision in Brown versus the Board of Education had a major impact and was a major accelerator after 1954 of change in this country.  This period was one of gestation so to speak related to the growing discontent on both sides of this epic struggle  and it's an important time frame to understand a we set the plate for the civil rights show down that would come to a new and escalating  boil  during the Kennedy administration... and contribute to the events leading to the assassination of President Kennedy.  An assassination that appears to have included the involvement of hard core right wing characters including in some way  Joseph Milteer.

This episode is  the  second in a  mini-series wander that gives an overview of the civil rights movement as we traverse through the 1950's and early 1960's.  In part 1 (episode 214) we portray events up through 1959. In today's episode,  we pick up the action in 1960,  and  we tell the story of the Greensboro sit in which occurred in February of that year.  The sit in would resonate with the people  as the quintessential non violent protest...spawning sit ins across the country and mostly in the south where segregated lunch counters were still so prevalent. This series begins to explore more broadly  the impact of the civil rights movement and the clash of civilization that began to accelerate in the 1950's.

Chokeholds is a wonderful new book on the JFK assassination authored by famous JFK assassination researcher James DiEugenio and four of his co-authors Matt Crumpton, Paul Bleau, Andrew Iler and Mark Adamczyk. Three of the five authors are lawyers and the book brings a refreshingly new, and more rigorous,  approach to standards of proof as they would have been applied, had Oswald not been murdered.   It's a great mix of new facts and old and,  and its organization and content  brings order to a complex topic. Several weeks ago, we recorded a live video interview with these gentlemen, and placed it exclusively on our You Tube Channel.  Today,  we offer the audio portion of that interview to our podcast listeners. 

This new book has a fresh new approach and is a masterful and  collaborative effort undertaken by a highly talented group of JFK researchers.  All of whom are friends of mine.  James DiEugenio is best known for his involvement with Oliver Stone,  as Jim wrote the latest Oliver Stone  screenplay JFK Revisited.  Mr. DiEugenio is a retired teacher with four  previously published books on  the JFK assassination and related topics and he is the producer of the website Kennedys and King. Mr. DiEugenio has lectured widely and made many appearances on the subject of the JFK Assassination.  Many of you will recognize Matt Crumpton as one of the newer shining stars these days on the JFK research and podcast scene.  His podcast Solving JFK is one of the most popular podcasts on the subject.  Paul Bleau is another highly talented and  accomplished JFK researcher who has presented at JFK conferences and appeared as a speaker  on various shows covering the JFK assassination topic.  I personally consider Andrew Iler and Mark Adamczyk to be two of the most knowledgeable lawyers around  on the topic of the JFK Records Act.  The Act  is the core reason why we have such wide access to records related to the assassination.  Listen to this fascinating interview with four of the five authors, and if you want to a total experience with  them on the tube, then make your way over to the JFK Enduring Secret You Tube Channel and watch the Video of this interview there.  Either venue will advance your knowledge of the assassination.
