Thursday, January 6 at 8pm on ABC "Women of the Movement, a six-episode limited series event premiers. It is based on the true story of Emmett Till and his mother Mamie Till-Mobley. For many, it is an unknown story. Till was a 14 year old boy murdered in Mississippi for allegedly whistling at a white woman. The men arrested and charged with the crime were acquitted. Last year, the Justice Department closed the case of Till's murder. Last month, ABC screened the first 2 hours of the series and invited me to moderate a conversation featuring the series creator, co-author of the book with Till-Mobley, the actors in the production and members of Till's family. This is that conversation.
