LBJ And The Great Society (PM)
February 14, 2023 @ 6:30 PM - 8:00 PM
After his election in 1964, Lyndon Johnson used his landslide mandate to change America fundamentally! LBJ And The Great Society declared war on poverty. Poor people, urban and rural, were inundated with programs to try and lift them out of poverty. No president since FDR had done more to help the poor.
The lives of older Americans were made longer and better by Medicare and Medicaid. Youngsters got access to free school meals and to Sesame Street. Sweeping laws aimed to clean the environment, beautify America, and improve education.
LBJ And The Great Society
Lyndon Baines Johnson had grown up amidst vast poverty in the Hill Country of Texas. While LBJ could be mean-spirited, even cruel, and an insecure, overbearing narcissist. But he was genuinely empathetic regarding the needs of the poor, the hungry, racial minorities, and the elderly.
This program will cover the breathtaking scope and immense consequences of the programs created by LBJ And The Great Society.
COST
I ask for a voluntary donation of $5.00. If you cannot afford it or feel my programs are not worth $5.00, you are invited to come for free; I am struggling but supporting a family, so I understand with compassion living on a tight budget!
