I'm glad you have so many claps for this article because it means it has been widely read, as it should be. I was 12 when Emmet Till died. His horrendous torture and death might have passed me by, but my mother talked to me about it. What she said, I remember to this day along with my own experiences watching racists be racists. It may be considered ... uh, something negative ... for me to read your article and then leave a link to one I wrote on the same subject, but I feel so strongly about this that I'm going to do it: Whistling While Black: Feds notice Emmet Till’s murder — 66 years later.
