The Murder of Emmet Till

The sad story of Emmet Till who was 14 years old until his death was documented in this movie. The movie details the death of Till in Mississippi in 1955 for allegedly flirting with a white cashier at a local store,  unfortunately, that was a big crime at that time.

A dramatic trial followed afterward. This movie, however, set the tone for what became a huge anti-racial struggle.
