The theme is the struggle of the Kennedys in defense of minorities. Portraits of JFK, Robert Kennedy, Thomas Jefferson, and Martin Luther King, Jr. are among the images floating across the ceiling. A poem in the center memorializes JFK. The mural was originally painted in strips on the floor and then mounted. Campero painted KENNEDY SAGA I in Mexico City just before doing this mural.
