‘Everybody Needed to Know What Happened’: Mamie Till-Mobley’s Fight for Son Emmett’s Justice to Become Movie Starring Whoopi Goldberg
Mamie Till-Mobley has long been known as the Black mother whose 14 year-old son,
Emmett Louis Till, was brutally tortured and killed in Mississippi during the Jim Crow Era.
But now, the masses will know her as not only the “mother of the civil rights movement,” but just how far she pushed to make justice for her son a reality. The upcoming movie, “Till,” will chronicle her decision to have an open-casket funeral to show her son’s gruesomely disfigured body which was photographed for Jet magazine in 1955 and how her fight for justice helped launch a movement.
