This week on Black on Black Cinema, the crew returns to dive into the harrowing true story of Emmett Till, a 14-year-old boy from Chicago, whose tragic encounter at a Mississippi grocery store in 1955 set off a series of events that would expose the deep-rooted racism in the American South. From Emmett's fateful meeting with Carolyn Bryant, to the brutal aftermath and the subsequent trial that gripped the nation, follow the journey of Mamie Till, a mother's relentless pursuit for justice for her son and her profound impact on the Civil Rights movement.
