Kennedy, then a US Senator from New York, ventured deep into the heart of Appalachia. As acting chairman of a Senate subcommittee on poverty, RFK went to eastern Kentucky to gauge the progress of the War on Poverty. He was deeply disillusioned by what he found. Kennedy learned that job training programs were useless, welfare programs proved insufficient, and jobs were scarce and getting scarcer. Before he'd even left the state, Kennedy had determined the War on Poverty was a failure, and he blamed Lyndon Johnson. 600 10 $a Kennedy, Robert F., $d 1925-1968 $x Travel $z Appalachian Region. 600 10 $a Kennedy, Robert F., $d 1925-1968 $x Travel $z Kentucky. 650 0 $a Poverty $z Appalachian Region. 650 0 $a Poverty $z Kentucky. 650 0 $a Politics and government.st 650 0 $a Social conditions. 651 0 $a Kentucky $x Social conditions. 651 0 $a Appalachian Region $x Social conditions. 651 0 $a United States $x Politics and government. 655 0 $a Audiobooks. 700 1 $a Colacci, David, $e narrator. 941 $a 1 945 $a cda 952 $l YCPD572 $d 20230214011205.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=70E42938AC3511ED92CDDD2F4CECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
