About:
“Till, the 2022 feature film based on the true story of Mamie Till-Mobley’s relentless pursuit of justice for her 14-year-old son, Emmett Till, who was brutally lynched in 1955 while visiting his cousins in Mississippi. The lynching is widely viewed as the catalyst for the Civil Rights Movement.”
“Following the film, producer Keith Beauchamp joins Emmett Till’s cousin Priscilla Sterling on stage for a Q&A session and discussion about the ongoing pursuit of criminal and social justice for Emmett Till and countless others. Join us to be part of this historic discussion.”
