DESCRIPTION:Sep 10 - Dec 19\, 2026\nHe was only 14—a Chicago boy with a c
 harming smile. He was visiting relatives in Money\, Mississippi\, and in a
  local store he spoke to the owner’s wife\, a white woman. In 1955\, in 
 the Deep South\, a Black male couldn’t look at a white woman without rep
 ercussions. To this day\, no one is sure what was said. But there’s no d
 oubt about the outcome. Emmett Till was abducted from the home of his grea
 t uncle\, beaten\, mutilated\, shot in the head\, and dumped in the Tallah
 atchie River. A 14-year-old. The sickening crime rocked America\, shamed M
 ississippi\, and fueled the civil rights movement. The murderers were acqu
 itted but it ruined their lives anyway\, karmic justice. Had Till not been
  killed\, he would be 85 this year. With photographs covering the 70 years
  that Till missed\, this exhibition at Chicago’s Museum of Contemporary 
 Photography implicitly asks\, “Have we made good on the sacrifice of his
  life?” Among the photographers represented are Henri Cartier-Bresson\, 
 Dorothea Lange\, Gordon Parks\, Dawoud Bey\, Teju Cole\, Laylah Amatullah 
 Barrayn\, Carrie Mae Weems\, and Stephen Marc.
