In this episode, we delve into the harrowing and pivotal story of Emmett Till, a 14-year-old African-American boy from Chicago, who was brutally lynched in Mississippi in 1955. This tragic event became a crucial turning point in the American civil rights movement. We explore the context of the time, marked by severe racial tensions, economic disparities, and the Jim Crow laws. Examining sources such as Wikipedia, FBI files, and Department of Justice records, we discuss how Emmett's innocent visit to a store led to his kidnapping and murder by Roy Bryant and J.W. Milam. The blatant injustice of their acquittal by an all-white jury sparked national outrage, highlighting systemic racism in the South. Emmett's mother, Mamie Till Mobley, played a significant role in bringing this tragedy to light by insisting on an open casket funeral, showing the world the brutality of racism. The media coverage of Emmett's disfigured body galvanized public opinion and inspired future civil rights actions, including Rosa Parks' defiance and the Montgomery bus boycott. We also address the lasting impact of Emmett Till's story on contemporary movements like Black Lives Matter, emphasizing that the fight for racial justice continues. This podcast serves as a call to action to confront and dismantle systemic racism, ensuring Emmett's legacy endures and inspires meaningful change.00:00 Introduction: The Story That Shook America00:41 Setting the Scene: 1955 Mississippi02:41 The Incident: Emmett Till and Carolyn Bryant03:47 The Aftermath: Kidnapping and Murder05:32 The Trial: A Mockery of Justice06:39 The Impact: A Catalyst for Change08:04 Legacy: Emmett Till's Enduring Influence13:04 Conclusion: A Call to Action Hosted on Acast.

A nine-year-old lawsuit alleges lack of proper medical care for inmates at Angola Prison. Months ago, U.S. District Judge Shelly Dick issued an opinion ordering the state to fix its quote “callous and wanton disregard” for the health of those in custody.But in the months since, there's very little to indicate that this failing prison healthcare system will change. Reporter Richard Webster has been covering this story for Verite News and ProPublica. He joins us today to explain why a decades-old law seeking to prevent inmates from filing lawsuits is thwarting the latest attempts for medical improvements.July 25 marked the one-year anniversary that national monuments were created across the U.S. remembering Emmett Till and his mother Mamie Till-Mobley. Till— a young Black teenager—was murdered in Mississippi nearly 70 years ago and it became a flashpoint in the Civil Rights movement.As Gulf States Newsroom's Maya Miller reports, now young Black filmmakers in the Magnolia State are now using the sites to tell the Till family's story while explaining the complex history of their community.New Orleans' City Park leaders are moving forward with plans for redevelopment of certain areas. The process has already generated some controversy as early drafts suggested paving a new street over the Grow Dat Youth Farm, a popular urban youth farming program. Reporter Drew Costley of Verite News spoke with producer Matt Bloom about the latest in the park's planning efforts, and why supporters of the farm claim they've been left out of the decision-making process. — Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Adam Vos.

Shamima Begum left the UK in 2015. Now, for the first time, we have a better idea of what she might have been doing in the four years between then and her re-appearance in a camp in Syria in 2019. We know that she has married an IS fighter, had three children and lost three children in the last eight years – but what else happened? Nuala McGovern is joined by the BBC's Josh Baker, host of the podcast I'm Not A Monster: The Shamima Begum Story and Dr Gina Vale, a lecturer of Criminology at the University of Southampton who specialises in terrorism. Danielle Deadwyler's extraordinary portrayal of the civil rights activist Mamie Till-Mobley in Chinonye Chukwu's Till (2022) has earned her a BAFTA nomination for Best Leading Actress. The film tells the true story of Mamie's pursuit of justice after her 14-year-old son, Emmett Till, was tortured and lynched in 1955. Mamie insists that the casket containing her son's brutalised body be left open to show the nation what was done to him. Danielle joins Nuala McGovern to discuss grief, Mamie's legacy, and the ongoing fight for civil rights. As low-slung trousers come back into fashion and high-waists are all the rage we ask how fashion, age and generation determine where our trousers sit and how we feel about it. Hannah Rogers Assistant Fashion Editor for The Times joins Nuala. In 1993, aged twenty, Carmel Mc Mahon left Ireland for New York, carrying $500, two suitcases and a ton of emotional baggage. It took years, and a bitter struggle with alcohol addiction, to unpick the intricate traumas of her past and present. Carmel has now written a book, In Ordinary Time: Fragments of a Family History.

[REBROADCAST FROM OCTOBER 18TH, 2022] In the summer of 1955, 14-year-old Emmett Till was brutally murdered while visiting his cousins in Mississippi for allegedly offending a white woman. A new film, "Till," focuses on his mother Mamie Till-Mobley's dogged pursuit for justice for her son and for the country to reckon with its racism. Director Chinonye Chukwu joins to discuss.
Till tells the story of Mamie Till-Mobley, whose decision to hold an open-casket funeral for her murdered son Emmett served as a catalyst for the civil rights movement. We talk with director Chinonye Chukwu. Ken Tucker reviews Taylor Swift's Midnights. Ramona Emerson's novel, Shutter, is about a police department photographer, who, like Emerson, grew up in the Navajo Nation. The protagonist is haunted by the ghosts of victims from scenes she's photographed. We talk with Emerson about her own experience in forensic photography and how it informed the book.
Director Chinonye Chukwu discusses her new film, Till, with fellow director David Oyelowo in a Q&A at the DGA theater in Los Angeles. In the conversation, Chukwu speaks about the care necessary in depicting the tragic story, the political act of where to face the camera, and how she is not precious with her footage during the edit. Based on the true story of Mamie Till-Mobley, the film recounts her relentless pursuit of justice for her 14-year-old Emmet Till, who in 1955, was lynched while visiting his cousins in Mississippi. Please note: spoilers are included. See photos and a summary of this event below: https://www.dga.org/Events/2022/December2022/TILL_QnA_1022.aspx
Till tells the story of Mamie Till-Mobley, whose decision to hold an open-casket funeral for her murdered son served as a catalyst for the civil rights movement. "Without Mamie Till-Mobley, the world wouldn't know who Emmett Till was," director Chinonye Chukwu says. "She wanted the world to witness what happened to her child so then this can stop happening to other Black children and Black people."Also, Maureen Corrigan reviews a new biography of Samuel Adams.
When 14-year-old Emmett Till was murdered by two white men in 1955, his mother Mamie Till-Mobley became a voice of the civil rights movement. And now, the events surrounding his death have been dramatized in the new movie Till. Danielle Deadwyler's performance as Mamie is the focal point and standout, as she taps into the depths of a mother's grief.

Synopsis: The true story of Mamie Till-Mobley's relentless pursuit of justice for her 14-year-old son, Emmett Till, who was brutally lynched in 1955 while visiting his cousins in Mississippi. Writer: Michael Reilly, Keith Beauchamp, Chinonye Chukwu Director Chinonye Chukwu changing the lens through which we revisit tragic events in Black history. Till focuses not on the murder of Emmet Till (Jalyn Hall) but who he was, the circumstances that led to his death, and his mother's refusal to permit what happened to be swept into the shadows. Chukwu's crafted a story grounded in honesty but not rooted in exploiting the gruesomeness of this crime. I said I was done watching pre-Jim Crowe narratives but Till is heart-wrenching, informative and Danielle Deadwyler as Mamie Till-Mobley gives a powerful performance that shouldn't be missed. It's a tribute to her strength, her pain, and critical contribution to the Civil Rights Movement. The oft ignored narrative of mothers is richly honored. Till is now playing in select theaters and opens wide October 28, 2022. Listen as Ro discusses with Kriss why Till deserves our attention. Like what you hear? Subscribe so you don't miss an episode!

Emmett Till's lynching is credited as the spark that set off the Civil Rights Movement. In 1955, the 14-year-old boy was visiting family in Mississippi when he was kidnapped and murdered for whistling at a white woman. Days later his bloated body was dragged out of the Tallahatchie River and sent home to his mother, Mamie Till Mobley, in Chicago. When pictures of his mutilated face were published around the country, it shocked the national consciousness, bringing people off the sidelines and into the fight to recognize Black Americans' basic humanity.Congress first considered antilynching legislation at the turn of the twentieth century. On January 20th, 1900, Representative George Henry White of North Carolina, the only Black member of Congress at the time, introduced a bill that would have subjected people involved in mob violence to the potential of capital punishment. Since then, antilynching legislation has been introduced in Congress more than 200 times. It had failed every time. That changed last week. At the end of March, President Biden signed the Emmett Till Antilynching Act into law, making lynching a federal hate crime. Present at the ceremony was Emmett Till's cousin, Rev. Wheeler Parker. Rev. Parker travelled from Chicago to Mississippi with Emmett Till in 1955, and he is the last living relative to have witnessed the boy's kidnapping. This week on Into America, he shares his story.For a transcript, please visit msnbc.com/intoamerica.
