The Murder of Emmett Till: American Experience
(2003)|
Considered a catalyst for America's civil rights movement, the murder of 14-year-old Emmett Till (and the events after his death) is explored in this documentary. While visiting the Deep South, Till whistled at a white woman, an act for which he was brutally killed. Activists got organized after Till's mother let national newspapers run pictures of her mangled son, the trial ended in acquittal, and the federal government failed to intervene.
