Emmett Till Emmett Till was a 14 year old boy from Chicago who went down to the South to visit a family member for the summer. He was brutally murdered for allegedly whistling at a white woman.

What the witnesses say happened?

On a mother’s love His mom was amazing. She had to identify his body, and upon seeing what they had done to her son and realizing that the Southerners had tried to cover it up, she ordered them to have an open casket. This moment became a watershed for Civil Rights because it was the first time the Northern media had exposed the violence of the South. Her actions, which were unimaginably hard, sparked a lot of action among activists and the people outside the South.

From Death Springs Action

On the Role of the Media “So I wanted to make it as real and as visible as I could possibly make it. I knew if they walked by that casket, if people opened the pages of Jet Magazine and the Chicago Defender, if other people could see it with their own eyes, then together we might find a way to express what we had seen. I was important to do that, I thought, to help people recognize the horrible problems we were facing in the South….The whole nation had to bear witness to this” Mamie Till-Mobley
