Justice Denied: The Murder of Emmett Till

In 1955, a 14-year-old named Emmett Till was abducted in the middle of the night. He was tortured and brutally murdered. A jury acquitted two of his killers — J.W. Milam and Roy Bryant. No one was ever held accountable for this heinous murder.

In this episode, we'll speak to author Devery Anderson and journalist Jerry Mitchell about the case, and the latest developments in the quest to adjudicate the people responsible for Emmett Till's murder.

Check out Devery's book "Emmett Till: The Murder That Shocked the World and Propelled the Civil Rights Movement" here: https://www.amazon.com/Emmett-Till-Propelled-Movement-Rhetoric/dp/1496802845
