I Will Be Teaching a JFK Assassination Class - Don Jeffries - 14-12-2015
Anthony Thorne Wrote:Not sure if this is useful for either your students or yourself (although hopefully it will be) but Daniel Sheehan taught a semester-long class on the JFK assassination a year or two ago at the University of California at Santa Cruz (titled 'Alternate Theories of the JFK Assassination'), and he has uploaded the majority of classes in video form, plus his syllabus, class notes, a chronology and other documentation that he gave to the students.

For keen researchers in the class I'd be giving a link to the run of Black Op Radio '50 Reasons for 50 Years' videos. They're bite-sized videos on individual topics with a host of researchers providing evidence and discussion.

I'd also suggest those in the class who were interested should check out at least one or two of Walt Brown's ebooks on their laptop, phone or iPad - specifically DEATH (covering the weekend of the assassination), and DISAPPOINTMENT (covering the Warren Commission). Each is as long as Bugliosi's uncut book, and has a wealth of material to digest and discuss.

The University Press of Kansas volume OLIVER STONE'S USA has Stone's lengthiest and most recent critically rebuttal to the debunkers of his movie. It's worth a read even for those who dislike elements of the film.

Eric Wilson's THE SPECTACLE OF THE FALSE FLAG is an academic work that has been released online for free by the publisher. It has a long section on the JFK assassination.

Thanks for sharing all this, Anthony. All your suggestions are appreciated.

Surprisingly close to the halls of power, there.

You might consider a "What a real investigation would have done" vs what the Commission did.
And don't forget to mention the Commission was really headed by Dulles and his CIA policy conflict of interest vs Kennedy's brave new foreign policy.
And don't forget the brain evidence.

Don, do you have syllabus or a handout of suggested reading and websites? If so, would you mind posting it?
PS I am getting towards the end of your book. You don't get bogged down in minutia. Concise and to the point. You don't spare anyone, left or right. You give 'em all hell.
I Will Be Teaching a JFK Assassination Class - Don Jeffries - 15-12-2015
I tried uploading a link to my tentative class syllabus, but it kept saying "invalid file." Lauren, or anyone else who's interested, email me at donjeffries@mris.com and I can send it to you. It's really a pretty rough outline, and if I stay true to form, I will go wandering off quite a bit.
The books I will be recommending the most are:
Accessories After the Fact
Crossfire
JFK and the Unspeakable
Survivor's Guilt
Reclaiming Parkland
Inside the AARB series

Hope this conversion from .docx to .txt works.

Don, you must be buzzed. That is probably one of the best classes available in the DC area and should be something to attend.
I hope the dark-siders don't plant any Reitzes.

Well I took a much needed break from reading on this case. Been at it since 1973. But both books arrived yesterday.
