NEVER Forget Emmett Till!
(Emmett Louis Till (July 25, 1941 – August 28, 1955) was an African-American boy who, at 14 years old, was abducted and lynched in Mississippi in 1955. The brutality of his murder and the acquittal of his killers drew attention to the long history of violent persecution of African Americans in the United States. Till posthumously became an icon of the civil rights movement.)
Absolutely horrible!
NEVER forget the shameful bigotry and ignorance of racist murderers who committed this act!
(The 15-year-old murdered in Mississippi by the Ku Klux Klan was Emmett Till. On August 28, 1955, Till—an African American teenager from Chicago visiting family in Money, Mississippi—was brutally lynched after being falsely accused of offending a white woman.)
Eventually, the woman admitted she had lied!
(Emmett Till was kidnapped and murdered by white half-brothers Roy Bryant and J.W. Milam in 1955. The two men abducted the 14-year-old in Mississippi, beat and tortured him, shot him in the head, and threw his body in the Tallahatchie River in retaliation for Till allegedly whistling at Bryant's wife, Carolyn.)
Till’s murderers were later paid $4,000 for an article in Look Magazine where they confessed to the brutal act.
(Emmett Till's murderers, J.W. Milam and Roy Bryant, confessed to the 1955 crime in Look magazine. Their exclusive article, titled “The Shocking Story of Approved Killing in Mississippi” and written by journalist William Bradford Huie, was published on January 24, 1956.)
Emmett Till’s horrified mother insisted on an “open-casket" funeral to show the world what racist terrorists did to her son.
(Emmett Till’s open-casket funeral in September 1955 at Roberts Temple Church of God in Christ in Chicago drew an estimated 100,000 mourners. His mother’s decision to publicly display his mutilated body exposed the horrors of racial hatred to the world and catalyzed the Civil Rights Movement.)
Anyone who doesn't think the racist, MAGAt supporters of
t-Rump wouldn't relish the return to those dark days of KKK lynchings is, in my opinion, naive!
We, the decent, empathetic, patriotic citizens who condemn this kind of horror MUST continue to oppose every racist and Nazi in the 30% who are still blind to the absolute EVIL of t-Rump and his sycophantic cult!
We've ALL watched the ICE Nazis murder American citizens without punishment or consequences! It's no longer possible to sit silently while these government backed terrorists still roam the streets of American cities!
Protest! Fight! VOTE!
We MUST win this WAR!
Yeah well that is horrific, to my recollection the last lynching of a black person was in 1973. Recently we learned that the pig’s dad Fred was arrested and then released after he got picked up by the authorities at a KKK rally and Woody Guthrie wrote a song about it called “Old man Trump”. The pig claims his dad was innocent and just got swept up in a raid. I guess he thinks that’s a good story since ICE killed Renee Goode, Alex Pretti and a host of people of all colors. His paternal grandfather whom came from Bavaria to escape their draft was just as bad. From what I remember he came here during the Alaskan Good rush to sell liquor and women to poor gold miners. So, it must run in his family, maybe even in his genes thanks to epigenetic medications of his genome! Praise the lord we are all genetically programmed for apoptosis or brain cell death. Nature has its own way of solving problems and karma can crush you!
Anymore who doesn't believe White supremacists would go back to doing this is either ignorant (as you said) or a straight up racist cockroach!!!...If they did this to my son, he'll hath no fury for what I'd do to them!!
