John Fitzgerald Kennedy, the 35th president of the United States, is assassinated while traveling through Dallas, Texas, in an open-top convertible.

First lady Jacqueline Kennedy rarely accompanied her husband on political outings, but she was beside him, along with Texas Governor John Connally and his wife, for a 10-mile motorcade through the streets of downtown Dallas on November 22.

I think this moment in time marked a shift in American innocence as a country. War shaped us and stained our history at certain points, but this was a modern era leader killed in broad daylight. Sad day.
