Why this petition matters
Started by JERRY F
On Aug. 28, 1955, Till was tortured and killed inside a dark barn on a plantation near Drew. Those who lived or worked nearby heard his cries and saw one of the killers, Roy Bryant’s half-brother, J.W. Milam.
After Bryant’s arrest, Donham told his lawyer that Till had grabbed her hand and asked her for a date and we know this to be a lie as Carolyn Bryant has said so.
An all-white, all-male jury acquitted Bryant and Milam in the murder. Months later, they admitted their involvement in the killing.
We need to hold Racism and lying accountable for this death any many like it so please , Sign this Petition.
