Mamie Till gives a vivid description of what her 14 year old son, Emmett Till, looked like when she saw his dead body. The amount of pain he had to endure during his finally days here are unimaginable. And the strength Mamie Till had to have to sit through an open casket funeral service was amazing. Her strength and his torture mobilized the civil rights movement.

To sit here and know those savages walked away after committing such a gruesome murder is deplorable. Not to mention the fact that his accuser recently admitted she lied. It stirs up so many feelings inside of you from sorrow to anger.

Listen to Mamie Till as she describes what her baby looked like:
