38. Friday, 2/28 Collect papers Finish spoke diagram The Story of Emmett Till

39. Emmett Till was a 14 year old black boy from Chicago. He came to Money, Mississippi to visit relatives. On August 28, 1955 Emmett Till was brutally murdered for “whistling” at a white woman. Despite overwhelming evidence, his killers were set free after a short trial. The case galvanized the nation. http://www.youtube.com/watc h?v=MGqqOMTreNA http://www.youtube.com/watc h?v=MGqqOMTreNA

40. How did Southerners justify the brutal murder of Emmett Till?

41. Mamie Till’s reaction Emmett’s mom had grown up in the south and moved to Chicago. She refused to let Emmett’s death be just another forgotten lynching. She held an open casket funeral in Chicago that was attended by thousands from the community and got national attention. The trial to convict his murderers also got national news coverage. When his murderers were found not guilty by an all-white jury, she tried to appeal the case. Once found innocent, the murderers sold the story of how they did it to Look Magazine. Mamie Till then appealed to President Eisenhower to take action against the confessed killers, but he refused.

42. The Murder of Emmett Till As we analyze the circumstances of Emmett Till’s murder, it is important to also reflect on who we are as individuals and how we are viewed in society. 1. Using markers and colored construction paper, draw the outline of your hand. 2. Inside the hand, write or draw things that shape your identity, such as gender, names, religion, physical features, languages, family, political beliefs, etc. You should not put anything on this chart you’re not willing to share. 3. Outside of the hand outline, write or draw examples of how other people identify or "label" you (both positive and negative labels).

43. How did Southerners justify the brutal murder of Emmett Till? Historians and sociologists today still argue over how people are able to justify such disgusting acts of racial violence in their minds. Today we seek to answer that question looking at the case of Emmett Till. How did Southerners justify the brutal murder of Emmett Till? 1. Read through Documents A-D and collect evidence supporting the THREE HYPOTHESES at the top of your graphic organizer 2. You need to find TWO PIECES OF EVIDENCE for each hypothesis. Be sure to record both the SOURCE information and a QUOTATION
