Book offers new look at forces behind Emmett Till's murder
Emmett Till's murder is one of the most harrowing events in American history. Till was 14 in 1955 when he was killed after a white woman accused him of making an advance toward her. Mississippi author Wright Thompson has a fresh account of the conspiring forces behind Till’s murder. Geoff Bennett sat down with Thompson to discuss his book, “The Barn: The Secret History of A Murder In Mississippi.”
