The Longoria Affair (Episode #1204H)
KQED World: Sun, Sep 9, 2012 -- 9:00 PM

The incident would ripple outward, launching the career of Lyndon B. Johnson, landing the undertaker in a mental institution, engendering hostile recriminations for the next 50 years, and launching the Mexican American civil rights movement.
