An all-white jury in Mississippi acquitted Roy Bryant & J.W. Milam for the lynching of 14-year-old Emmett Till.
Decades later, we remember Ahmaud Arbery, murdered while jogging in Georgia.

Today is #WorldBookDay in the #UK & #Ireland (the rest of the world celebrates it on April 23). I celebrate books everyday but in honor of today's World Book Day, I'll honor #PercivalEverett's #TheTrees, a haunting & believe it or not at times comic (in the way #Everett often is) retelling of #EmmettTill's murder. I know #Erasure is on everyone's mind (as it should be) what w/#AmericanFiction, but do read #TheTrees, if & when you can. What's your book for today?

@QasimRashid. And #PercivalEverett has written a magnificent book about #EmmettTill. If you haven't read it, I recommend you run to the bookstore and get it. It's called #TheTrees.

US President Joe Biden has established a national monument to honour Emmett Till, the Black teenager whose 1955 lynching galvanised the civil rights movement...

In 2008, the #FBI reopened the case and dozens of others under the #EmmettTill Unsolved #CivilRights Crime Act, which directed the #DepartmentOfJustice and the FBI to investigate unpunished racially motivated #homicides from before 1970.

A #Constituent of #MarjorieTaylorGreene #Compares the #Extremist Congresswoman To The #Racist #Woman Who 'Got #EmmettTill lynched.'
Greene responded by saying #race had nothing to do with her calling Rep. #JamaalBowman "#aggressive," which is a racially-charged #DogWhistle.

@avi. May I suggest Percival #Everett's #TheTrees? It's a profound and haunting novelistic account of the murder of #EmmettTill. #bookstodon, #litstudies

Finally got to see the #film #Till last night.
It’s as bleak and as depressing as you think it will be.
The most depressing part is that you take away the 1950s cars and clothes, it could be today. The sequel #Nichols will be coming soon.

Four #movies for #MLK day from our contributors: #Till for what it can teach and ultimately inspire. #TheInspection “for the lost loner in all of us” – & for Jeremy Pope’s performance. #Devotion, a true story more inspiring than #TopGunMaverick. And Wakanda for Oscar contender #angelabassett.
Quick takes re: need-to-know & where to stream: http://bit.ly/348TVMQ
