“The Trinity” traces the fascinating history of the trio of portraits once displayed in countless African American homes, featuring John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King, Jr. and Jesus Christ. In a story of memory and meaning-making, explored across decades of civil rights activism and injustice, the book examines why President Kennedy was prominently featured while his successor, Lyndon Johnson, who championed the 1964 Civil Rights Act, was excluded. Sharron Wilkins Conrad, a history professor at Tarrant County College and senior fellow at Southern Methodist University, is a former director of education at The Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza.
