luther king jr. is assassinated and then the country really comes apart for a month. there is writing in most major cities. one of the really dramatic moments in the book is that there was no rioting in indianapolis that night that martin luther king jr. was killed and one of the reasons for that is that bobby kennedy had a campaign stop scheduled in indianapolis that night. when he got off the plane, he was told that martin luther king jr. had just been assassinated. he was told you how to cancel your event. he had an outdoor public event scheduled in the heart of the black community in indianapolis. the police chief did not want him to go there and told him i can offer you know protection if you go in there. if we send basically our troops in there, that will be provocative. please don't do this. bobby kennedy listened to that advice, to get seriously and worried every day of his life since his brother was assassinated he worried about assassination of himself every day of his life and he decided t
