This course is designed to scrutinize the disparities between the findings of the Warren Commission and the United States House of Representatives regarding the assassination of President Kennedy. The Warren Commission, which conducted a ten-month investigation and released its conclusions in September 1964, will be compared with the conclusions reached by the House of Representatives, which conducted a more extensive thirty-one-month investigation and published its report in March 1979. In light of the recent release of JFK-related classified documents and material, this new information will be added to the course content. Updated analysis will be presented and discussed, ensuring participants have access to the most current findings and interpretations related to this pivotal historical event.
