Emmett Till was kidnapped from his uncle’s house, beaten and tortured beyond recognition, and shot in the head. His body was tied with barbed wire to a cotton gin fan and thrown into the Tallahatchie River. But all these years later, a historian says that the woman has broken her silence, and acknowledged that the most incendiary parts of the story she and others told about Emmett — claims that seem tame today but were more than enough to get a black person killed in Jim Crow-era Mississippi — were false. Ms. Donham, now 82, could not be reached for comment. http://www...ing-carolyn-bryant-donham.html Why don't they tie her up with barbed wire and throw her into the river? |
