Both Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy worked for racial equality and sought to address poverty. Their assassinations in 1968 shocked the nation in part because they were prominent voices for these causes. Neither man served in President Johnson’s Cabinet, and King was not a successful politician or a leader of the counterculture movement.
