AG Curtis Hill: On 55th Anniversary Of JFK's Death, Let's Remember His Calls For Civility

Last updated on Monday, November 19, 2018

(INDIANAPOLIS) - Attorney General Curtis Hill has written an op-ed commemorating President John F. Kennedy 55 years after his death on Nov. 22, 1963 - expressing particular appreciation for Kennedy’s belief in civility.

"It's a sad irony that Kennedy's death itself served as a unifying event in America as virtually the whole country came together to mourn the loss of their fallen president," Attorney General Hill writes. "In much the same way, other largescale tragic events - such as the bombing of Pearl Harbor and the 9-11 terrorist attacks - have given rise to national unity."

He adds: "We need to come together now - as one nation under God, indivisible - rather than waiting until the galvanizing effects of some new crisis or moment of great loss."
