Emmett Till


WOW! The story of Emmett Till is amazing. I cant believe that you could hurt, let alone kill someone and not get in touble for it...but that was back in the day, in the south and Emmett was black and the murderers were white. The site I went to was really cool, and it was pretty interesting. We learned about it in History class this year and we watched a video about it. What they did to the body of young Emmett Till is unbelievable. The beat the boy so much that he was completly unrecognizable. The thing that was the most upsetting was that when the case was over the murderers got paid to tell all about how they murder the boy and got away with it. It is scary to think that those people got paid, got paid to kill a boy. WOW! This site was a great site you should check it out! Emmett Till

The whole story is kind of upsetting in all. Like you said the most unbelievable part was that the killers did confess.I dont see how someone can do so much damage to a kid like that. It shows how life has changed. Check out my blog it talks about the reopening of the case.
