The Kennedy family has long been a symbol of American power and prestige, but beneath the surface of their glamorous facade lies a dark and sinister legacy of misogyny, violence, and exploitation. For generations, the Kennedy men have physically and psychologically abused women and girls, leaving a trail of destruction and heartbreak in their wake. From sexual assaults to reputational slander, suicides to manslaughter, the Kennedy family's history of violence and exploitation is a shocking and disturbing revelation.
The truth about the Kennedy family's treatment of women and girls is hidden behind a carefully constructed veneer of integrity and honor. But Maureen Callahan, in her book Ask Not, blows open the lid on this dark history, revealing the unrepentant sexism and rampant depravity that has defined the Kennedy dynasty. Through decades of scandal after scandal, Callahan shines a light on the women who have been forgotten, silenced, and overlooked in the Kennedy family's story. From Jacqueline Onassis and Marilyn Monroe to Carolyn Bessette, Martha Moxley, Mary Jo Kopechne, Rosemary Kennedy, and many others, Callahan gives voice to those who have been ignored and seeks justice for those who have been victimized.
The impact of the Kennedy family's actions is still felt today, and Callahan's book is a long-overdue reckoning with this dark legacy. By redirecting the spotlight to the women who have been affected by the Kennedy family's actions, Callahan restores their dignity and their right to be remembered. The book is a testament to the enduring power of the female spirit and a reminder that the truth will always come to light. Through her explosive reportage and electric prose, Callahan has created a book that is both a devastating exposé and a tribute to the women who have been forgotten for too long.

The story is one of family secrets, hidden scandals, and the lasting impact of a legacy built on violence and exploitation.

The author's book is not just a scandalous exposé, but also a tribute to the women who were affected by the Kennedy family's actions. Through her words, she reminds us that the truth will always come to light, and that those who have been silenced or marginalized will no longer be forgotten.
