Approximately 50,000 people came to see Emmett Till's body during his open-casket funeral in Chicago in September 1955. His mother, Mamie Till-Mobley, insisted on the open casket to show the brutality of racism and the violence inflicted upon her son. The shocking images of his body were widely published and helped galvanize the Civil Rights Movement.
