Born on this day in 1941, Emmett Till was a 14-year-old boy whose brutal murder became a pivotal moment in American history. 

His mother, Mamie Till-Mobley, demanded the world see what they did to her son, and in doing so, she helped light the torch for the Civil Rights Movement. 

We will never forget his memory, or the fight for justice he inspired. Rest in power, Emmett. We continue to say your name.
