American Experience S20E01 - Oswald's Ghost

Episode Overview

Many Americans, both in the past and present, struggle to believe that a solitary, seemingly insignificant gunman could assassinate a president and change the course of history. This skepticism has given rise to a culture steeped in conspiracy theories, suggesting hidden malevolent forces are at play. Utilizing previously unseen archival footage and interviews with pivotal figures, Oswald's Ghost offers a new perspective on Kennedy's assassination, the public's response to the event, and the government inquiries that, rather than restoring faith, resulted in a deep-seated mistrust of the institutions that oversee our society.
