Timothy B Tyson: The Blood of Emmett Till, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

"In 1955, white men in the Mississippi Delta lynched a fourteen-year-old from Chicago named Emmett Till. His murder was part of a wave of white terrorism in the wake of the 1954 Supreme Court decision that declared public school segregation unconstitutional ... But what actually happened to Emmett Till--not the icon of injustice, but the flesh-and-blood boy? Part detective story, part political history, [this book] drawing on a wealth of new evidence, including a shocking admission of Till's innocence from the woman in whose name he was killed"--Amazon. com.
