Emmett Till traveled to Mississippi in August 1955 to visit relatives, specifically to stay with his great-uncle, Mose Wright. His trip was part of a summer visit to the region, as he was from Chicago. Unfortunately, during his stay, he was brutally murdered after allegedly offending a white woman, an event that sparked national outrage and became a pivotal moment in the Civil Rights Movement.
