Under Construction
I wasn’t allowed to swim in the Hudson, the Potomac, or the Charles Rivers, ... I remember dusting our home daily for soot from the black smoke that billowed from stacks around Washington, DC. I was aware that thousands of Americans died each year during smog events. I never saw herons, ospreys, and bald eagles. Pesticides had mostly extinguished their mid-Atlantic populations and were doing the same to our songbirds’

“My father was furious that state officials weren’t doing anything about it. Soon after his selection, he made a trip up the Hudson to inspect the pollution. Dead for twenty-mile stretches north of New York City and south of Albany, the river caught fire regularly and turned whatever color they were currently painting trucks at the GM plant in Tarrytown.”

When RFK Jr. was eleven-years-old he read The Once and Future King, T.H. White’s classic book about the King Arthur legend.

"I think he has the potential to be a great political leader. If he were, he'd also be a great leader when it comes to values.

"We still have time to preserve a planet for our children that provides at least some of the opportunities for dignity and enrichment as those our parents gave us. My job is to be able to look myself in the mirror and say that I spent my short time on this planet trying to make it a better place fr my children. I have to look my children in the eye and I will be able to do that. Because I know I will never sell out, and I’m going to spend my life fighting as hard as I can. I will die with my boots on. That’s really all I care about.”
- RFK Jr. In a talk with author Dick Russel in a 2002 visit, as quoted on page 189-190 of The Real RFK Jr. by Dick Russel
