Till - the movie

I was invited to see “Till” yesterday by both of our daughters who are teachers.
One teaches high school American History to juniors and seniors, the other is a high school special Ed teacher.

I highly recommend it. It is the story of Mamie Till, Emmet’s mother.
I knew Jet magazine published photos.
While I thought I knew, I really didn’t know his murder set off a firestorm of activism.
