613 Words3 Pages
In 1955, a 14-year old Chicago black male named Emmett Till was murdered for “whistling” at Carolyn Bryant, which was proven false in Tim Tyson’s The Blood of Emmett Till. With the revelation on part of what happened that day, it goes to show that back in the day before his death became the catalyst to the Civil Rights Movement, segregation was the definite system in Mississippi, and the white men and women lived up to it. Yes, while there were two witnesses that saw/heard the crime that occurred in the dead of night, what more could they do about it? Honestly, they could do nothing but stand as a witness. If anyone speaks about Emmett Till’s murder, they would know only one thing: the way he was killed was brutal compared to the other killings.
