Emmett Till's brutal murder in 1955 shed a spotlight on the racism and violence endured by African Americans in the United States. His death helped galvanize the Civil Rights Movement, as his mother's decision to have an open casket funeral exposed the world to the horrors of racial violence. Till's case inspired many to join the fight for racial equality and justice.
