The Cuban Missile Crisis: How It Started (Part 1)

#JFK60 week continues as we mark the 60th Anniversary of the #JFK Assassination with more from our Maverick News archives.

In this 2-part special, we look back on what was likely President #Kennedy's greatest achievement -- negotiating a peaceful end to the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis.

Rick Walker and I interviewed historian Jim Di Eugenio (screenplay writer of Oliver Stone's new "JFK Revisited" documentary and author of the accompanying book) about President Kennedy's masterful handling of the crisis.

In Part 1 we take you in-depth, day-by-day through those fateful 13 days in October when the world stood on the brink of nuclear war with the USSR.

(Original air date: October 22, 2022)
