This week on Hashtag History, we are revisiting our coverage of the Chappaquiddick incident. If you have been with us for some time now, you will recall that we covered Chappaquiddick in our first ever podcast episode in July of 2019. As we are nearing Episode 100, we wanted to bring it back to where it all began. If you have listened to our original coverage of this incident, don't go anywhere! This time around will be a completely different experience!

On July 18, 1969, Senator Ted Kennedy drove his car off of a bridge into a pond off Chappaquiddick Island in Massachusetts. Kennedy escaped from the car but left his passenger behind to die.
