Ted Kennedy’s Eulogy for Bobby Kennedy

Earlier this week I listened to and read Ted Kennedy’s eulogy for his brother, Robert Kennedy. I had never heard this speech before and it is a fantastic oration worth listening to in full. However…

  • I would advise listening to the speech on the embedded video while reading along so that you can hear the emotion in Ted Kennedy’s voice—fantastic!
  • Don’t just listen to the speech using the embedded video as the overlaid music is horrendous and occasionally distracting.
  • The recording of the speech is 9:45 in length, seven minutes of which is an excerpt from Robert Kennedy’s own Day of Affirmation Address to the students of the University of Capetown, South Africa (June 6, 1966).
