Tavis Smiley interview

Interview0 Comments

Kennedy discusses her newest documentary, Last Days in Vietnam, and how her family connections there informed the movie in this interview for PBS.

I’m so thrilled to be able to share this film and, you know, what we uncovered in researching this film and developing it further was that as these events took place and it got very chaotic during those last 24 hours, the Americans in Washington, the president and others, Kissinger said we just need to get the Americans out of the country. We’ve got to leave the Vietnamese behind.
