In 1955, a 14-year-old named Emmett Till was abducted in the middle of the
night. He was tortured and brutally murdered. A jury acquitted two of his
killers — J.W. Milam and Roy Bryant. No one was ever held accountable for this
heinous murder.
In this episode, we'll speak to author Devery Anderson and journalist Jerry
Mitchell about the case, and the latest developments in the quest to adjudicate
the people responsible for Emmett Till's murder.

Propelled the Civil Rights Movement" here:
