She lied because she was racist and was upset that when he gave her the money his hand touched hers. You think that woman really cared that Emmett was brutally beaten and killed? I don't think so.
Her conscious is eating her soul everyday which it deserves because for 1. She was is and always will be racist 2. She had many years to come clean yet didn't 3. She knows her time is almost up so now she wants to let things off her chest...
@Fanta Graham when black people did try to take up arms and fight back they were slaughtered and it was covered up. Have you ever heard of the Colfax massacre? Probably not because it was covered up. Black people had the right to be scared. I'm white and I can admit that these were awful and unjust things and I hope that history never repeats itself.
Really why do u think its so obv u shkd know tht even before thus video ur hopeless lets see a racist pofs got her hands touched by a black boy then got whistled at in the deep south in the 50s i mean really do u want me to hold ur hand
The reality of Emmett Till causes me anger beyond belief. I can't even imagine the pain that his mother felt. I am glad that she chose to have an open-casket for all to see. Never forget.
Yes; this case makes me sad too. What also makes me sad is the many, many victims before and after Emmett who didn't make the news that are dead and or are still missing. Let's remember them in our prayers. 🙏🏾
you guys sure use the word black often. Its just making things worse. What if a person says white power or its white history month. Or the white awards. You would just hate them even more. These are ancestors of the white people today you are blaming . Yes this lady should go to jail. I still see white people hating black people and it makes me sick. Goes both ways. so please think about it.
if you ever meet somebody like that then you must know that they are racist themselves.A decent human being with a heart and good conscious must have empathy for another human being, there are instances that are not up for debates.
In case you don't know. The Emmitt Till incident happen 65 year's ago. Racism was very strong then. Today racism among the whites is very weak. Only the blacks love racism today, they need it to blame their failures on.
@@johnturner2946 I wonder how Blacks got that way. And who they lean it from. Who drew the first blood. It's 2021 Racism is still here just mordernize.
I am afraid to even let my mind ponder on the unimaginable fear, torture, and extreme pain this teen endured until his death. The way he must have screamed and pleaded and waited for someone, anyone to save him. I hope that everyone involved in his death saw in their mind Emmitt's beaten body every single night of their lives.
@@JahRootsRadio Sounds like your Lord is a psycopath. Let's things happen and then avenges them. I do not think he or she is in the vengance business....that is us.
coldaswinter2 yes she does. She’s still alive too yo. They threw Bill Cosby old self in jail so they need to give ha white aaa jail time too. Doesn’t matter how old she is.
Emmett Till live on the same block in Chicago south side neighborhood where I live. I was about 6 years old when my mother took me to his funeral. There was so many people there. He is buried in Alsip Illinois Burr Oak cemetery. My mother is buried there. TO THIS VERY DAY I DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW CAN A PERSON WHO KILLED EMMETT TILL LIVE AND SLEEP AT NIGHT.
God bless you for your story it was very nice to hear from someone who was there. But I find her to be a heartless inhumane person. A lie that big carries a lot of weight. No I don't know how she lives on a daily basis ,but it's dangerous especially at her age. She can not hide from her truths. Unbelievable
Every time I learn something more about what happened to Emmett my heart breaks. I can't even begin to imagine how his mother felt. I admire her strength to do something about what happened. I wish that there could've been some type of justice for Emmett. Rip Emmett and Mamie Till 🙏
Krissy Kat I have 1 grandson he's 21 now and when I look back when he was 14 he was still like a young child. I know Emmett had to been terrified. Every time I hear about this story I just cry, cry and I get so angry. What they did to him was so horrible.
I live in Europe. I only recently heard about this atrocity. It left me shaken to my core. I'm white. I don't see that as a badge of honour. It made me cry to see what was done to that poor boy, just because he was black. I fear that racism is on the rise again in the US, although it has never stopped. Racism has been approved by all the vile Republicans who have allowed their fake leader, Donald Trump, to promote it. I wish I had an answer. Here, we can deal with them in the courts because it is against the law to discriminate against somebody because of their race. We don't have white or black areas. We have a multicultural society. Sure, there are racists here but they are in the minority. Our schools are multicultural.
They did a lot more than lynched Emmett Till all of those Devils against this little boy what cowards they are and we're I hope they all suffered hellish deaths and all the bloodlines they came from.
@@sandrapurter366 Don’t curse them, pray for them. They’ve already cursed themselves, for disobeying God. God commanded us to love everyone, not only one, the white one, the black one, the white one, the rich one, the famous one, but everyone. We all will pay because we didn’t obey. 👈🙏🙏🙏
When he started stuttering to make excuses, the white man who’s an expert on black history truly showed his color. He didn’t give a reason on why she did it.
As a child hearing the story of Emmett Till... Matured me in away age could never.. To know that a 14yr old boy was savagely beaten, mutilated and murdered because if someone else's distain for blacks was eye opening and to see his body bloated and flesh decayed was the best education of racism but painful to accept.
Taquae Anderson yes and to know that we could live amongst animals like this still today.The whites in Michigan still think he was deserving of this treatment
@@debramartin2854 Exactly... That's the sickening part so many hateful violent ppl walk around just waiting to hurt someone solely because of our skin color....
Reverend Wright who identified young Emmet's murderer, in court, and Mamie Till really should never be forgotten. The State of Mississippi owes them a debt of gratitude for standing up for the rule of law, and helping to raise the entire country's awareness of how many Americans had no protection from it. These heroes of the Civil Rights movement, contributed immeasurably to the creation of a safer and more equitable country with enforceable laws. More must be done, and honoring our country's real heroes is a part of that.
These are the pure evil devil the bibles talks about. These are satans children in disguise read your bible the lord warm us not to mingle with these people. Wake up they are all around us.
This still hurts from the time my mom told me about this when I was a child years before internet. My parents were my first educators of our history - which were never written in history books.
I'm sorry but this woman needs to spend the rest of her days in prison. This poor boy and his family. Praise Jesus he's in God's glory but what a horrible way to go out.
What is the purpose of bringing, all of this stuff, back up. People are making money on this little boy death . You are getting people upset all back over again. For what!
Don't be crass/rude Pedro. No one said Gayle wasn't doing a good job. If someone was interviewing you about something as important as this subject is...I'm sure you'd want the person to let you finish your thought(s) without interrupting you. It makes for better communication and understanding no matter what the genre for the person being spoken to and... those listening.
The fam should have gotten himmouy of there admittedly. And his cousins should have warned him and they shouldn't have Emmitt n that store alone and they should have schooled him. His fam didn't look out for him .
I still can't handle this story to this day. I was so young when it happened and I learned of it it was to emotional and painful to describe. No one such endure what they went through over a lie. Carolyn should have had life in prison.
@Ann Oh really???? He got his just dues!!! Stop caping for creatures who don't want us to exist and eliminate us every 4 hours!!! Be mad at what his father had done!!! Do you even know about that??? Or you don't care???
I was born a year later in Mississippi in 1956, but the racial tensions were still there all during my childhood and every black kid growing up during that period was potentially an Emmett Till.
this woman is not in jail? this is crazy. I can't believe that nobody is pushing for charges on this woman. she need to b jailed for the rest of her pitiful life.
She paid the price of lying. You may not seen it on the outside but you don't know what goes on in her mind. I pray she repented and asked God to forgive her. Listen to what God told Emmett's mother. It is on You.Tube. God spoke to her b/c she wanted to die when her only child was killed. God told her to go out and work in His Vineyard. She became a teacher. God told her He would take care of the white men who killed her son. He is the Judge and the Jury. He told her not to hate. Why? God said it would poison her insides and she would get sick and die. That is what hate and unforgiveness does.
Linda Wright why is there always some so-called Christian being dismissive to the fact that the justice system is unequal? Yes, forgiveness is nice but even God's mercy run out. According to revelations forgiveness of evil is over. So, stop being dismissive towards injustice in the name of Christianity.
What a horrid tragedy. I have followed this case since I heard about it 35yrs ago, while in college. It sickened me then, and that will never change. Emmit Till was a young kid, 14yo. May he Rest In Peace.
@@jasonvoorhees5640 He was a 14yo who had moved to Chicago, but came back to Mississippi with family. He went to the local grocery store and had an encounter with the white, female clerk who alleged that Till whistled at her. Her husband owned the store and when he heard of Till whistling at his wife, he and his friends found Till and drowned him in a river, with weights tied to his ankles. The body was found days later, but Till’s mother insisted on an open casket. These photos of him in the casket really shook people worldwide.
@@Raykibb1 I just looked it up. Till grabbed and groped this woman whilst making lewd comments. THEN he whistled at her. Quite different to the yarn you are spinning. Seems Till was just like his father. smh
Yes she is search her up on Google I also read the book its realy hash what she did she was jealous of Emmett til because he was cute looking she believes black people should not be good looking that's why she done it
The movie Till was hard to watch, but necessary to watch. We must never forget that this horrible crime...was all due to hate: never forget his name Emmet Till. The courage of Ms. Mamie ...she turned this trauma into a life's work, that catapulted the Civil Rights Movement! Rest Ms. Mamie ..I know you are with your baby now.
That's the power of an author to capture a moment in time and express it in literature. Just the powerless feeling of his family seeing Emmett dragged away and knowing the Grimm fate that awaited him; horribly sad. It truly angers me to my core. ALL OF IT.
@Dani D he truly danced around that question like the truth was too hard for us to hear. The worst thing that happened here is Emmett Till was tortured & murdered. He protected her for 7yrs & still protecting her in this interview! She is a murderer Period
Brutal Deaths of black children was romanticized at the time in lullaby’s, cartoons, etc. they threw a black two year old into a burning building and killed the child in Mississippi during this time in a race riot... it just was what they did i have no answers for their brutality
I can't hardly tolerate any Gayle King interview....I mean, damn! Can the man please tell the story without being continously cutt off, without her finishing his sentences? I would like to hear from him and less of her interruptions. Goodness!
Gail is not a good interviewer, why bother have a guest when she is the one telling the story. He cannot fully complete his answers and that's if he is able to answer.
Anyone with a heart will grieve (the atrocities put on this little boy and the nightmare of memories his mother must have suffered) for ever while hate is reinforced everyday in our society.
The killers of this precious little kid were acquitted by a barbaric /racist and evil criminal justice system. However, they did not escape the judgment of almighty God who saw EVERYTHING. This I am certain of.
All these years later and this breaks my heart. Shame on law enforcement, shame on Mary and all those who lied and participated!! It hurts to think about it.
Get real lady, he deserved it, even 4 bm were involved! He was like his father, who hurt and removed women from this earth!!! DID YOU KNOW THAT?????? And look around today there are thousands of Emmits ruining the world every few minutes!!!!!
When they found Emmett's body, they were scrambling to come up justication for kiling. I believe that Carolyn lied with the aide of the killers. Of course she has since recanted her story. God will get the last word. Trust me.
I read this the other day and it's so true: Some people pretend you're a bad person (people) so they don't feel guilty about the things they did to you.................and still do as I see it.
I understand she’s doing an interview BUT she’s cutting him off. It defeats the purpose of doing an interview. We’re not able to get the full answer before he’s cut off with another question. It was cringy and uncomfortable. Everyone isn’t a speed talker like you Gayle.
I was born December 7, 1955, and Emmitt Till was exactly 10 years older than me had he lived. I remember vividly being warned by everybody, including the barber who cut our hair in the northern upscale Township of Montclair, New Jersey. Anyone who knew my brothers and I were going down South to North Carolina at the end of School to stay until school began in September. “Don’t forget Emmitt Till.”
I learned about this tragic event for the first time last week. I cannot accept the brutality of a young bright young man who was physically destroyed beyond recognition.
@@ParisBry I live in London and was looking at my You Tube channel about American history. I was horrified to discover this true story. You raised an important question and I didn't know so many people still did not hear about this tragic event.
Coco Nary - Black history is American history. They don’t need to teach a separate black history course, they just need to teach American history the way it really occurred.
I remember this story in the late 70’s. I’m from the Chicago area. I was in middle school. I couldn’t believe it. It has stayed with me all these years. My school was kids of all shades. I couldn’t fathom how anyone could hate someone so much just by the color of their skin.
So am I the only person that noticed that he never answered her question as to why the lady lied??? He kept circling around as if he was protecting her and had the nerve to try to save face for her?? This is Amerikka we all know, never addressing their issues honestly and face on.
WHY IS SHE NOT BEING TRIED IN THE COURT OF JUSTICE WHY DID SHE LIE WELL I KNOW THE ANSWER SHE HAS A HEART PROBLEM IF SHE KNEW JESUS SHE WOULD NOT HAVE TREATED ANOTHER HUMAN BEING LIKE SHE DID THE WORD OF GOD SAYS VENGENCE IS MINE SAYS THE LORD I WILL REPAY HOW ONE DOES THINGS WE ALL HAVE A CONSCIENCE
Heartbreaking... understatement. They owned a meat shop and Emmetts mother said it look like he had been hit with a meat cleaver on his nose. Can not believe its taken so long to get where thry at now. 👑👑💖💖
I live in Mississippi. It has long been rumored that the only thing Emmitt did was whistle and that he never grabbed her like Carolyn Bryant said. The rumor was that the sister-in-law who was in the back of the store told Carolyn’s husband about the whistle. It has long been rumored that Roy Bryant was an abusive man to Carolyn and that Carolyn either went along with or made up the story to keep her husband’s anger from being unleashed on her. Regardless of what the truth is, no child deserved to have done to them what was done to Emmitt Till. I once went in the store in Money MS where Emmitt whistled at Carolyn, and when it was explained to me that this was THE store where it happened my body went cold. Awful time in history, but Mamie Till-Mobley deserves lots of credit for what she did for the Civil Rights movement.
Jon according to Emmett's mother Emmett stuttered and she taught him to whistle when had difficulty getting his words out and that helped him with his speech.
"We are punished not for our sins, we are punished by our sins. Nobody ever gets away with anything." I liked this statement. I think that is what he said.
That statement is so true. You cannot escape being haunted by your sins. God will see to that! I am a white woman who has lived in the south all my life and I am horrified the way black people have been treated in this country. My children know this history and these stories, not because they were taught in school, but because my husband and I made sure they knew. Hatred is an evil that can easily spread if kept unchecked. Jesus told us to love everyone, even our enemies. Loving is not just tolerating. Love is what you feel for your own child. I pray we will all seek to follow the path of love. It is the only way to overcome evil in this world. This is the greatest commandment. Jesus taught it. Martin Luther King lived it. I witnessed it. It is my goal in life to obey it.
@@Susantaborherring Amen , Thank you , and JESUS CHRIST show US WHAT LOVE SOUND LIKE AND LOOK LIKE , HE WENT TO THE CROSS TO SHOW US WHAT LOVE DO . BE FOREVER BLESS. ❤🙏🏻
I am a Black female; because of the fact that things of this nature; including slavery (that went on far too long, by the way), I don't how to trust what white people say. I wasn't raised to hate, but my level of distrust has always been there. I am in my early 60's now, and have had white friends over the years; but can't say if I really trusted how they felt about Black people. When will the "N" word show itself. Have you ever used it. Your children or husband? Would you tell if you did? 🤔😔
I don’t think all proceeds should go to the till family because this man did work and he has credentials I think he should provide a portion of the income to the till family but he cannot be denied a right to make a reasonable profit off of his work the man did good work
This man is a southern dude that grew up during segregation and he sympathized with that lying white woman and set on her testimony to protect her.Listen to this man talking about Emitt basically should have known better saying"emitt knew about racism in Chicago. Gail, omg, stop talking!!! This is some bull crap talking about"I'm a historian, this isn't Carolyn's story this is Emitt's story.," Well let it be Emitt's story and not sit on the story for seven years knowing that she is an accomplice to Emitt being tortured and dismembered.
A reprobate mind is what TMH HAS GIVEN THEM BUT WE AS CHILDREN OF ISRAEL HAVE TO REPENT AND START FOLLOWING HS LAWS AND COMMANDMENTS AND HE WILL FIGHT THE BATTLE FOR US.
He would not have gotten the info had he been mean to her. I am sure the coffee and pound cake was just a setting for him to collect the information she was suddenly willing to share.
I want to read his book! Although, Sad and tragic. “We’re punished by our sins not for our sins!” -Timothy Tyson. Such a humble man. Thank you for writing about this young boy so the world could know him. Love the cake! ♥️
Sickening. There is tons of information if one searches for it. This guy is making a profit. Those in the world who are familiar with Emmett’s horrid death didn’t learn anything new from this interview. He never answered the question asked… Apparently, he didn’t spell it out in the book either. Or, Gayle wouldn’t have asked.
Carolyn was as guilty of his death as all the others. She knew what was going to happen when she shared the details of the incident with the men. Was there ever genuine remorse in her heart?
It was very easy for those white men & women back then as well as today too allow hate and evil to fill their hearts. It's easy when all one has to do! is imagine that another Human Being; is less than Human; taught and trained that another race is below that of a dog, a cat, or even a rat, so low that the ignorance in them would assign an entire race of people a certain percentage less than 100% Human. We Still see it today" so many people devalue, Human Life and or put more value And prefer a pet over another Human-Being, even to the degree that they Title themselves as a parent to an animal. Some people would rather save a life of an animal than that of a human child/being. "However" we ask the questions what were those men thinking as, they tortured, brutalized, cursed, spat on, dug-into his body with every weapon at their disposal? {Noting!} They thought he's not Human; why? Because his skin is darker than ours, plus we have been taught this evil and this Demonic level of hatred from our forefathers, out of false fears, jealousy, ignorance, and just good old fashioned southern blind hatred just because! Now listening to this story and other details, I now believe that the young man, didn't even whistle; they just needed a reason, any reason, to unleash the deep down Demonic; hatred on this child. You cannot put it pass them; that the whole situation was conjured up? Especially when he had been instructed how to act away from Home; because of familiar things that were happening in his own state...like I said any reason would suffice! "But" the main reason: Because He; was Black" That's the true and real reasons, And for many, that's good enough for a ignorant, insecure, jealous, and hateful, person/people to act out.."It Doesn't Take Much."
He was NO damn baby! These 14 year olds are doing this every few minutes!!!!! And do you know his farther se@@@" harmed women in Italy???? Even took their lives! Stop caping for those that despise us!!!
Let's be honest this man found out she lied and held that information to himself for 10 years. Puts a book out now saying something doing tv to promote his book this is disgusting all that money needs to go to Emmett till family or foundation. Something is not sitting right with me with this man.
Why did Carolyn lie about Emmit Till? Today it would be classified as a' karen' of the worst kind. A 15yr old boy was taken from his house by a white woman to never return. This can't be another Emmit. Let's get justice for this young man.
In the historical context racism was deeply ingrained in southern culture. She was indoctrinated in the way of white supremacists. She was angered because she was taught to feel superior and that is reflected in her behaviour, she was simmering with hate which led to the lie. She has probably felt deep remorse for her actions over the course of time; at least I would hope so. It doesn't excuse the lie but if this story helps others to challenge their beliefs and effect change it becomes a testimony of good triumphing over wickedness.
Yes, he whistled. Emmett would sometimes stutter when he became nervous or excited. His mother told him when he was anxious, "whistle before trying to speak."
Well thats a mother's love vs facts, She wanted it to be a whistle from his speech impediment but unfortunately it wasn't. His 2 cousins who were there said it was a cat call. (You research the interview their names are rev wheeler and simeon wright)They were so astonished after he did it they ran like lightning to the car and home. After emmitt saw how scared his cousins were is when he realized how bad he had messed up and began to cry.
@@nikkination74 his two cousins lied they were probably jealous of Emmett Till because he was a very handsome nice looking light skinned young black man and dark skinned black men are jealous of light skinned men I never believed his cousins and I always knew that Emmett Till did not whistle at that woman he grew up in Chicago he would never whistle at a white woman and especially in the south Chicago was a very racist city every little black boy in Chicago at that time would’ve known that you do not whistle at white women especially if you’re in the south the story never made sense.
@@lindaharris3432 Definitely I do think they were afraid for their lives and they went along with the script because they still had to live down there with those people but I never believed that Emmett Till whistled at a white woman you didn’t do this in Chicago I know my father grew up in Chicago during that time he said Chicago was very racist no different than they south Chicago had all day neighborhoods where Black people could not go into for threat of being attacked or worse. Chicago was surrounded by racist white suburbs police would threatened to drop Black kids off in certain areas knowing that they would get beaten up really bad. or killed. Even Martin Luther King Junior when he visited Chicago he could not believe the hatred that he faced when he came to Chicago.. I’m sorry I was long-winded in my response but I’m saying all this to say that because Emmett Till was from Chicago and all the racism that Black people faced back then in Chicago I just could not believe he went down to the south and tried to flirt with a white woman at 14 years old just never believed the story!
Randy Thomas Like so called white educated women ,you are talking trash here ,i wonder where your white beter than others smart white brain went while making this comment, why don't you send e-mail to gayle and tell her whst you want here to ask smart (yeah right !) snowflake .She is not saying what you want to here and you can't stand it,ofcourse ,we white folks can't stand the truth when it comes to race ,so the only thing you can do is crticize her for nothing as usual while these are not even gayles opinion but what is on the book. ALWAYS THINKING WE ARE BETTER OFF THAN OTHERS ON THE PLANET.Say what you want ,call me black people lover ,i don't care cos i don't want to be part of these evil,and i'm calling it out for what it is .
+Randy Thomas Your resentment of "black educated American women" won't help you any more than poor whites' resentment of ALL African Americans in the workforce. It's these same black women who are fighting for you, however imperfectly. Grow and expand your consciousness.
Indeed, but sadly, there is another worst horrific lynching. Done to a young black man with learning difficulties. And it was not done just by a few people, but by all the town. I'll better not talk about it. So, yes. It is sad and sick.
It’s very interesting how this man was able to get a interview with this woman who declined everyone. He held on to this for seven years before releasing it? I wouldn’t buy his book. Can’t no one tell me about Emmett Till but his mother and family. I careless to hear about his killers, while he describe them in a more pleasing light.
Trey Smada Brutal Deaths of black children was romanticized at the time in lullaby’s, cartoons, etc. they threw a black two year old into a burning building and killed the child in Mississippi during this time in a race riot... it just was what they did i have no answers for their brutality
I don’t give any credit to anything Timothy Tyson has to say. He met with Carolyn Bryant and her daughter-in-law for one reason, such was to discuss the publication of her “memoir.” To make a long story short, her memoir was unpublishable, so he agreed to archive it, and any discussion they had about her part in Emmett’s death amounted to nothing. I believe He fabricated her remorseful comments, as well as her recantation. And for those who keep asking why Carolyn Bryant hasn’t been held accountable for lying, I will explain: The case was reopened again in 2017, when Tyson’s book detailing her recantation came out. But he did not document anything she said. He didn’t transcribe her recantation, and he didn’t record it. When the fbi interviewed Carolyn, she denied that she ever told Tyson she lied. And her daughter-in-late also denied it. That’s why they closed the case and didn’t charge her with anything. There are one of two reasons as to why he didn’t document her recantation : she never recanted, or she did recant, but he didn’t want to produce any evidence that could be used against her legally, so he just took a mental note of what she said for his book. I also don’t doubt that Carolyn received some sort of financial compensation from this book. Regardless, we don’t need information from Timothy Tyson or Carolyn Bryant to know that she lied. If you study the case, witnesses who were present in the store have said that he did nothing more than barely touch her hand as he gave her his money and whistled as she left the store. He didn’t ask her for a date. He didn’t grab her wrist. He didn’t chase her around the store and grab her by the waist. He didn’t make obscene comments. Her own sister-in-law said she was a liar who made it up because she was tired of running the store by herself and felt that her husband would be home more often to help if she came up with a “wild story” about being harassed by a black man.
Great comment, Michael!!! I bought this guy's book to see that Carolyn Bryant finally told the truth about the incident and hopefully would apologize to the Till family. This book ended up being a "mish mash" of everything I've ever read about Emmett! In the back of my mind, I wondered why she was recanting her story now after all of this time. I thought maybe she was trying to "get right with God" Whatever the case, I'm disappointed and I hate I dropped $20 on his book!!
Timothy Tyson said with his book he wants to encourage people to do something against the racial violence . But he does not practice his own message. He had the truth from Carolyn Bryant’s own words for 7 years after he interviewed her before he published this book and still he never brought her public to be prosecuted. This makes me very mad. The lady died and never paid for her crime.
She lied because she was racist and was upset that when he gave her the money his hand touched hers. You think that woman really cared that Emmett was brutally beaten and killed? I don't think so.
Her conscious is eating her soul everyday which it deserves because for 1. She was is and always will be racist 2. She had many years to come clean yet didn't 3. She knows her time is almost up so now she wants to let things off her chest...
MOHAMMED Sillah - My thoughts exactly. She is trying to avoid the eternal damnation she so richly deserves.
she does now. people in old age review their sins. shes burden but her own evil.
@Fanta Graham that would be called the "black panthers".
@Fanta Graham when black people did try to take up arms and fight back they were slaughtered and it was covered up. Have you ever heard of the Colfax massacre? Probably not because it was covered up. Black people had the right to be scared. I'm white and I can admit that these were awful and unjust things and I hope that history never repeats itself.
Carolyn Bryant put a hit out on a 14 yr old child.
Who is that and how is this related to the video?
@@leavefollow1698 emmet till is the 14 yr old and carolyn Bryan is the one be supposedly cat called and got killed 4
Oooh I never knew her last name. Thats what threw me for a loop
Period.
she a woman though. so the simps give her a pass.
Gayle seriously dropped the ball in this interview. he never answered why she lied, and Gayle never pressed him on it.
There really is no answer....
The older u get u realise you are watching CBS and Donald is president
That's cos Gayle is a crap interviewer...handy to have Oprah as your best friend...🙄
Really why do u think its so obv u shkd know tht even before thus video ur hopeless lets see a racist pofs got her hands touched by a black boy then got whistled at in the deep south in the 50s i mean really do u want me to hold ur hand
Yeah. I was shocked about that.
The reality of Emmett Till causes me anger beyond belief. I can't even imagine the pain that his mother felt. I am glad that she chose to have an open-casket for all to see.
Never forget.
Amen hallelujah
Very brave lady, bless Emmit Till
I just told my son the same thing just yesterday.
Exactly my sentiment !
White Mississippi need to pay reparation to send black boys and girls to college for free.
64years later and my heart still breaks for that poor kid. Shame on America for its hate.
And what has America learned, not one damn thing but continue in it's dirty past.
This has nothing to do with America it had to do with one man that's not an American conspiracy.
Yes; this case makes me sad too. What also makes me sad is the many, many victims before and after Emmett who didn't make the news that are dead and or are still missing. Let's remember them in our prayers. 🙏🏾
Richard Gerren in 2019 The white people in Michigan are just as hateful and evil and still feel it was justified
Then comes Central Park 5. I'm sick of this.
The sad part is that Emmett Till was one of millions of people lynch for no other reason than being black...
If Emmett was lynched. So what the Black Messiah lynched in front of the gentiles as well as the ungrateful Jews.
you guys sure use the word black often. Its just making things worse. What if a person says white power or its white history month. Or the white awards. You would just hate them even more. These are ancestors of the white people today you are blaming . Yes this lady should go to jail. I still see white people hating black people and it makes me sick. Goes both ways. so please think about it.

Some people pretend like they don’t know racism exist this make me sick
if you ever meet somebody like that then you must know that they are racist themselves.A decent human being with a heart and good conscious must have empathy for another human being, there are instances that are not up for debates.
In case you don't know. The Emmitt Till incident happen 65 year's ago. Racism was very strong then. Today racism among the whites is very weak. Only the blacks love racism today, they need it to blame their failures on.
@@johnturner2946 racism is learned behavior, that's all I would like to add
@@johnturner2946 I wonder how Blacks got that way. And who they lean it from. Who drew the first blood. It's 2021 Racism is still here just mordernize.

I am afraid to even let my mind ponder on the unimaginable fear, torture, and extreme pain this teen endured until his death. The way he must have screamed and pleaded and waited for someone, anyone to save him. I hope that everyone involved in his death saw in their mind Emmitt's beaten body every single night of their lives.
Thought the same thing. The terror. I can't...maybe in a 1000 years we'll do better, if we are still here.
I pray that Emmitt's spirit and ghost haunts them to their graves.

coldaswinter2 Carolyn’s nephew is the governor of Mississippi so...
coldaswinter2 yes she does. She’s still alive too yo. They threw Bill Cosby old self in jail so they need to give ha white aaa jail time too. Doesn’t matter how old she is.
Exactly
Right 😡
I don't think she has good interview skills.
Emmett Till live on the same block in Chicago south side neighborhood where I live. I was about 6 years old when my mother took me to his funeral. There was so many people there. He is buried in Alsip Illinois Burr Oak cemetery. My mother is buried there. TO THIS VERY DAY I DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW CAN A PERSON WHO KILLED EMMETT TILL LIVE AND SLEEP AT NIGHT.
God bless you for your story it was very nice to hear from someone who was there. But I find her to be a heartless inhumane person. A lie that big carries a lot of weight. No I don't know how she lives on a daily basis ,but it's dangerous especially at her age. She can not hide from her truths. Unbelievable
Devil's advocates
Trust me they didn’t , they were all tortured , and the rest of them will be tortured even after they die, nobody ever gets away with anything
Wow..
They are demons with know conscious!! I won't even say they are mentally ill because they are just plain evil!
Every time I learn something more about what happened to Emmett my heart breaks. I can't even begin to imagine how his mother felt. I admire her strength to do something about what happened. I wish that there could've been some type of justice for Emmett. Rip Emmett and Mamie Till 🙏
Krissy Kat I have 1 grandson he's 21 now and when I look back when he was 14 he was still like a young child. I know Emmett had to been terrified. Every time I hear about this story I just cry, cry and I get so angry. What they did to him was so horrible.
I live in Europe. I only recently heard about this atrocity. It left me shaken to my core. I'm white. I don't see that as a badge of honour. It made me cry to see what was done to that poor boy, just because he was black. I fear that racism is on the rise again in the US, although it has never stopped. Racism has been approved by all the vile Republicans who have allowed their fake leader, Donald Trump, to promote it. I wish I had an answer. Here, we can deal with them in the courts because it is against the law to discriminate against somebody because of their race. We don't have white or black areas. We have a multicultural society. Sure, there are racists here but they are in the minority. Our schools are multicultural.
@@elizabethgrogan8553 - *I believe Donald Trump's ancestors were behind the whole ordeal.*

Lol
As a child hearing the story of Emmett Till... Matured me in away age could never.. To know that a 14yr old boy was savagely beaten, mutilated and murdered because if someone else's distain for blacks was eye opening and to see his body bloated and flesh decayed was the best education of racism but painful to accept.

@@nitawhite8459 Your right...😒😒😒
I felt the same way when I saw him for the first time
Reverend Wright who identified young Emmet's murderer, in court, and Mamie Till really should never be forgotten. The State of Mississippi owes them a debt of gratitude for standing up for the rule of law, and helping to raise the entire country's awareness of how many Americans had no protection from it. These heroes of the Civil Rights movement, contributed immeasurably to the creation of a safer and more equitable country with enforceable laws. More must be done, and honoring our country's real heroes is a part of that.
"We are not punished for our sins we are punished by our sins." This guy is deep!
Carolyn Bryant has Emmet Tills blood on her hands,,,,
Yes it is not every man in this world killed a black man will suffe every day of their lives
These are the pure evil devil the bibles talks about. These are satans children in disguise read your bible the lord warm us not to mingle with these people. Wake up they are all around us.
I hope they arrest her son for aiding and abetting a fugitive.
Aine Mairead FOREVER!!!
Yes she sure does
She had him killed for a lie she should go to prison
They would have NEVER put her in Jail. But she saw him as NOTHING! So it could be just because she could.
@mizzmolly ummm... how?. From that long ago?! STOP BLAMING THOSE LIVING NOW! ENOUGH ALREADY!
Gale u need to let the guest talk!!!!!!!
Donald Mcauliffe, NOT IN THIS SOCIETY !!!
she is dead already. This was a story relayed by her daughter-in-law and that was stated in the conversation by the author.
Every time I hear this story.... when they went to the house that night.....his uncle tried to pay them..... This story does something to your soul...
This still hurts from the time my mom told me about this when I was a child years before internet. My parents were my first educators of our history - which were never written in history books.
I'm sorry but this woman needs to spend the rest of her days in prison. This poor boy and his family. Praise Jesus he's in God's glory but what a horrible way to go out.
What is the purpose of bringing, all of this stuff, back up. People are making money on this little boy death . You are getting people upset all back over again. For what!
They're you go with that religion garbage 😡
💙🙏🏾
That's not enough pain for her or her family. She needs to wait to see the creator he will take care of her just perfectly
You mean the same Jesus that let that happen to him and countless others? Ok
Gayle, please allow your guests to finish their thought. My goodness.
yayadolmo he withheld information he should go to jail
Yes. Let them finish their thought.
You shut up, she's doing a great job
Don't be crass/rude Pedro. No one said Gayle wasn't doing a good job. If someone was interviewing you about something as important as this subject is...I'm sure you'd want the person to let you finish your thought(s) without interrupting you. It makes for better communication and understanding no matter what the genre for the person being spoken to and... those listening.
I was thinking the same thing! He still never answered the question...they just went on to something else...smh
Emmett's mother impressed me so much. Such an important story.
It hurts my heart every time I think of how evil humans can be to one another
She lied because she wanted Emmett to be killed. She knew what would happen to Emmett. Just as Emmett's cousin knew what was going to happen to him.
Maybe she wanted her husband locked up for life to get rid of him😈
My sentiment exactly
The fam should have gotten himmouy of there admittedly. And his cousins should have warned him and they shouldn't have Emmitt n that store alone and they should have schooled him. His fam didn't look out for him .
@@irmajgarcia6009 that could be a possibility notice underneath their shirts they have wife beaters shirts on
@@koolbreezz52 They we’re all kids. They didn’t tell any adults. Had they told, yes they probably would have sent Emmett home. They were kids!
I'm so sad for Emmit Till's mother that she had to see her baby just mutilated beyond recognition.
Imagine he was the only kid she had
😢
That lady displayed so much courage in the face of the unthinkable.
Me, too. Just seeing her crying over his casket, I knew her precious heart was broken, in a million pieces. But God kept her through it all.
@@fahadfaraj1822 really? The only kid she had? I thought she had 2 kids.
“Nobody ever gets away with anything”
I still can't handle this story to this day. I was so young when it happened and I learned of it it was to emotional and painful to describe. No one such endure what they went through over a lie. Carolyn should have had life in prison.
why did they single him out?
@Ann Oh really???? He got his just dues!!! Stop caping for creatures who don't want us to exist and eliminate us every 4 hours!!! Be mad at what his father had done!!! Do you even know about that??? Or you don't care???
I was born a year later in Mississippi in 1956, but the racial tensions were still there all during my childhood and every black kid growing up during that period was potentially an Emmett Till.
this woman is not in jail? this is crazy. I can't believe that nobody is pushing for charges on this woman. she need to b jailed for the rest of her pitiful life.
She paid the price of lying. You may not seen it on the outside but you don't know what goes on in her mind. I pray she repented and asked God to forgive her. Listen to what God told Emmett's mother. It is on You.Tube. God spoke to her b/c she wanted to die when her only child was killed. God told her to go out and work in His Vineyard. She became a teacher. God told her He would take care of the white men who killed her son. He is the Judge and the Jury. He told her not to hate. Why? God said it would poison her insides and she would get sick and die. That is what hate and unforgiveness does.
They go back in time and convict Blacks, ex:Bill Cosby.
S Dogan: Women he drugged and raped spoke out against Bill Cosby. He was found guilty by his peers. He drugged them and raped them.
Linda Wright why is there always some so-called Christian being dismissive to the fact that the justice system is unequal? Yes, forgiveness is nice but even God's mercy run out. According to revelations forgiveness of evil is over. So, stop being dismissive towards injustice in the name of Christianity.

What a horrid tragedy. I have followed this case since I heard about it 35yrs ago, while in college. It sickened me then, and that will never change. Emmit Till was a young kid, 14yo. May he Rest In Peace.
why was that specific kid singled out though?
@@jasonvoorhees5640 He was a 14yo who had moved to Chicago, but came back to Mississippi with family. He went to the local grocery store and had an encounter with the white, female clerk who alleged that Till whistled at her. Her husband owned the store and when he heard of Till whistling at his wife, he and his friends found Till and drowned him in a river, with weights tied to his ankles. The body was found days later, but Till’s mother insisted on an open casket. These photos of him in the casket really shook people worldwide.
@@Raykibb1
I just looked it up. Till grabbed and groped this woman whilst making lewd comments. THEN he whistled at her. Quite different to the yarn you are spinning. Seems Till was just like his father. smh
He danced around the question of why she lied 🤥
That Irish Carolyn Bryant needs to be jailed for the rest of life and money made from the book given to the till family
It should.
Douglas Davis she's irish
Yes she is search her up on Google I also read the book its realy hash what she did she was jealous of Emmett til because he was cute looking she believes black people should not be good looking that's why she done it
I Agree, for a whistle, which they said that he had a lisp...
Douglas Davis
So Carol Bryant only felt remorseful and thought of Till's mother, when she later lost a son..... wow
The movie Till was hard to watch, but necessary to watch. We must never forget that this horrible crime...was all due to hate: never forget his name Emmet Till. The courage of Ms. Mamie ...she turned this trauma into a life's work, that catapulted the Civil Rights Movement! Rest Ms. Mamie ..I know you are with your baby now.
That's the power of an author to capture a moment in time and express it in literature.
Just the powerless feeling of his family seeing Emmett dragged away and knowing the Grimm fate that awaited him; horribly sad.
It truly angers me to my core. ALL OF IT.
Linda Fairstein(prosecutor of the central park 5) and Carolyn Bryant are cut from the same evil cloth
Maybe they are sorority sisters.
But I bet it's bleached.
Yes😡
As is Amy Cooper
So is trump, he provided monies in their arrest
He NEVER answered WHY SHE LIED. But it’s ok bc we know why she did it! 🤦🏾♀️
Because Gayle keep cutting him off!
Nobody thinks it's ok
@Dani D he truly danced around that question like the truth was too hard for us to hear. The worst thing that happened here is Emmett Till was tortured & murdered. He protected her for 7yrs & still protecting her in this interview! She is a murderer Period
Brutal Deaths of black children was romanticized at the time in lullaby’s, cartoons, etc. they threw a black two year old into a burning building and killed the child in Mississippi during this time in a race riot... it just was what they did i have no answers for their brutality
U see that as well
*Gayle, please let the man talk! You didn't write the book, Timothy Tyson wrote the book.*
I can't hardly tolerate any Gayle King interview....I mean, damn! Can the man please tell the story without being continously cutt off, without her finishing his sentences? I would like to hear from him and less of her interruptions. Goodness!
Gail is not a good interviewer, why bother have a guest when she is the one telling the story. He cannot fully complete his answers and that's if he is able to answer.
Empathy for this woman?!!! That’s what I’m hearing from the author...she’s not a sympathetic character. She knew what she was doing. Period.
Me too
Exactly
Anyone with a heart will grieve (the atrocities put on this little boy and the nightmare of memories his mother must have suffered) for ever while hate is reinforced everyday in our society.
The killers of this precious little kid were acquitted by a barbaric /racist and evil criminal justice system. However, they did not escape the judgment of almighty God who saw EVERYTHING. This I am certain of.
All the money should go to this family . My youngest nephew looks a lot like Emmett . I wouldn't know what to do if someone hurt my baby . So sad 😔

When they found Emmett's body, they were scrambling to come up justication for kiling. I believe that Carolyn lied with the aide of the killers. Of course she has since recanted her story. God will get the last word. Trust me.

Emme Dee Exactly how I felt.
I was born December 7, 1955, and Emmitt Till was exactly 10 years older than me had he lived. I remember vividly being warned by everybody, including the barber who cut our hair in the northern upscale Township of Montclair, New Jersey. Anyone who knew my brothers and I were going down South to North Carolina at the end of School to stay until school began in September. “Don’t forget Emmitt Till.”
I learned about this tragic event for the first time last week. I cannot accept the brutality of a young bright young man who was physically destroyed beyond recognition.
Scary to me this story so old and so many people haven’t heard about it, as a black woman in AMERIKKKA I learned this story at 9 years old.

In the early 80's my grandmother had the Jet magazine of Emmitt Till death picture. Really sad and horrifying photo of him.
I remember this story in the late 70’s. I’m from the Chicago area. I was in middle school. I couldn’t believe it. It has stayed with me all these years. My school was kids of all shades. I couldn’t fathom how anyone could hate someone so much just by the color of their skin.
" This hurt her badly" ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?!? She had a full life didnt she?! Emmett never got that! Pisses me offf!
Right B why is everybody skipping over that
So am I the only person that noticed that he never answered her question as to why the lady lied??? He kept circling around as if he was protecting her and had the nerve to try to save face for her?? This is Amerikka we all know, never addressing their issues honestly and face on.
WHY IS SHE NOT BEING TRIED IN THE COURT OF JUSTICE WHY DID SHE LIE WELL I KNOW THE ANSWER SHE HAS A HEART PROBLEM IF SHE KNEW JESUS SHE WOULD NOT HAVE TREATED ANOTHER HUMAN BEING LIKE SHE DID THE WORD OF GOD SAYS VENGENCE IS MINE SAYS THE LORD I WILL REPAY HOW ONE DOES THINGS WE ALL HAVE A CONSCIENCE

I cant IMAGINE this happening to my 14 yr old son ... Thats a horror NO mother should endure
DAMN
😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪
Heartbreaking... understatement. They owned a meat shop and Emmetts mother said it look like he had been hit with a meat cleaver on his nose. Can not believe its taken so long to get where thry at now. 👑👑💖💖
I live in Mississippi. It has long been rumored that the only thing Emmitt did was whistle and that he never grabbed her like Carolyn Bryant said. The rumor was that the sister-in-law who was in the back of the store told Carolyn’s husband about the whistle. It has long been rumored that Roy Bryant was an abusive man to Carolyn and that Carolyn either went along with or made up the story to keep her husband’s anger from being unleashed on her. Regardless of what the truth is, no child deserved to have done to them what was done to Emmitt Till. I once went in the store in Money MS where Emmitt whistled at Carolyn, and when it was explained to me that this was THE store where it happened my body went cold. Awful time in history, but Mamie Till-Mobley deserves lots of credit for what she did for the Civil Rights movement.
Jon according to Emmett's mother Emmett stuttered and she taught him to whistle when had difficulty getting his words out and that helped him with his speech.
"We are punished not for our sins, we are punished by our sins. Nobody ever gets away with anything." I liked this statement. I think that is what he said.
That statement is so true. You cannot escape being haunted by your sins. God will see to that! I am a white woman who has lived in the south all my life and I am horrified the way black people have been treated in this country. My children know this history and these stories, not because they were taught in school, but because my husband and I made sure they knew. Hatred is an evil that can easily spread if kept unchecked. Jesus told us to love everyone, even our enemies. Loving is not just tolerating. Love is what you feel for your own child. I pray we will all seek to follow the path of love. It is the only way to overcome evil in this world. This is the greatest commandment. Jesus taught it. Martin Luther King lived it. I witnessed it. It is my goal in life to obey it.
Only if you consider what you did as a sin many do not think lynching was a sin so they felt pride

That does not bring justice sound good it tickles the ear however we want justice on earth in our lifetime, not after the grave.
I am a Black female; because of the fact that things of this nature; including slavery (that went on far too long, by the way), I don't how to trust what white people say. I wasn't raised to hate, but my level of distrust has always been there. I am in my early 60's now, and have had white friends over the years; but can't say if I really trusted how they felt about Black people. When will the "N" word show itself. Have you ever used it. Your children or husband? Would you tell if you did? 🤔😔
Don't buy the book, unless all proceeds go to Emmett's family.
Why punish him? He didn't do anything except bring this story to the public.
I don’t think all proceeds should go to the till family because this man did work and he has credentials I think he should provide a portion of the income to the till family but he cannot be denied a right to make a reasonable profit off of his work the man did good work

Sorry 🙏🏾
I can't imagine looking at his poor mutilated 14 year old boy!!! This should have never happened!!!
This man is a southern dude that grew up during segregation and he sympathized with that lying white woman and set on her testimony to protect her.Listen to this man talking about Emitt basically should have known better saying"emitt knew about racism in Chicago. Gail, omg, stop talking!!!
This is some bull crap talking about"I'm a historian, this isn't Carolyn's story this is Emitt's story.," Well let it be Emitt's story and not sit on the story for seven years knowing that she is an accomplice to Emitt being tortured and dismembered.
Well said...my thoughts exactly!
It's Emmett, not "Emitt".
All of them should be jailed. No statue of limitations or age of, defendants is not a excuse.
The men that were tried and found not guilty can't be tried again besides they died long before the book was written.
Thank you for informing and reminding AMERICA of its injustices.

Sickening. There is tons of information if one searches for it. This guy is making a profit. Those in the world who are familiar with Emmett’s horrid death didn’t learn anything new from this interview. He never answered the question asked… Apparently, he didn’t spell it out in the book either. Or, Gayle wouldn’t have asked.
Carolyn was as guilty of his death as all the others. She knew what was going to happen when she shared the details of the incident with the men. Was there ever genuine remorse in her heart?
Yes, she thought it was terrible, and she testified at court.
she didnt ask the most important question, why that ldevil is not in jail.
It makes me angry what they did to him. Pure evil these men did to him. How can anyone do such horrific act to another human being.
I can't believe you only have 3 likes. Where is the compassion that we as a civilized people should have?
A baby! 14 years old! It makes me so darn angry!!!
@@tammeradixon9 That's exactly what he was, a baby.
It was very easy for those white men & women back then as well as today too allow hate and evil to fill their hearts.
It's easy when all one has to do! is imagine that another Human Being; is less than Human; taught and trained that another race is below that of a dog, a cat, or even a rat, so low that the ignorance in them would assign an entire race of people a certain percentage less than 100% Human. We Still see it today" so many people devalue, Human Life and or put more value And prefer a pet over another Human-Being, even to the degree that they Title themselves as a parent to an animal. Some people would rather save a life of an animal than that of a human child/being.
"However" we ask the questions what were those men thinking as, they tortured, brutalized, cursed, spat on, dug-into his body with every weapon at their disposal? {Noting!} They thought he's not Human; why? Because his skin is darker than ours, plus we have been taught this evil and this Demonic level of hatred from our forefathers, out of false fears, jealousy, ignorance, and just good old fashioned southern blind hatred just because!
Now listening to this story and other details, I now believe that the young man, didn't even whistle; they just needed a reason, any reason, to unleash the deep down Demonic; hatred on this child.
You cannot put it pass them; that the whole situation was conjured up? Especially when he had been instructed how to act away from Home; because of familiar things that were happening in his own state...like I said any reason would suffice! "But" the main reason: Because He; was Black" That's the true and real reasons, And for many, that's good enough for a ignorant, insecure, jealous, and hateful, person/people to act out.."It Doesn't Take Much."
He was NO damn baby! These 14 year olds are doing this every few minutes!!!!! And do you know his farther se@@@" harmed women in Italy???? Even took their lives! Stop caping for those that despise us!!!
Let's be honest this man found out she lied and held that information to himself for 10 years. Puts a book out now saying something doing tv to promote his book this is disgusting all that money needs to go to Emmett till family or foundation. Something is not sitting right with me with this man.
Why did Carolyn lie about Emmit Till? Today it would be classified as a' karen' of the worst kind. A 15yr old boy was taken from his house by a white woman to never return. This can't be another Emmit. Let's get justice for this young man.
still didn't answer the question of why did she lie
She was married to a violent, abusive man with an ugly temper...She was afraid of him....
kiaratheblasian Because she Could
In the historical context racism was deeply ingrained in southern culture. She was indoctrinated in the way of white supremacists. She was angered because she was taught to feel superior and that is reflected in her behaviour, she was simmering with hate which led to the lie. She has probably felt deep remorse for her actions over the course of time; at least I would hope so. It doesn't excuse the lie but if this story helps others to challenge their beliefs and effect change it becomes a testimony of good triumphing over wickedness.
Exactly I said the same thing.
Janet Cooper Doesn't explain why she made up the assult.
Yes, he whistled. Emmett would sometimes stutter when he became nervous or excited. His mother told him when he was anxious, "whistle before trying to speak."
Well thats a mother's love vs facts, She wanted it to be a whistle from his speech impediment but unfortunately it wasn't. His 2 cousins who were there said it was a cat call. (You research the interview their names are rev wheeler and simeon wright)They were so astonished after he did it they ran like lightning to the car and home. After emmitt saw how scared his cousins were is when he realized how bad he had messed up and began to cry.
@@nikkination74 his two cousins lied they were probably jealous of Emmett Till because he was a very handsome nice looking light skinned young black man and dark skinned black men are jealous of light skinned men I never believed his cousins and I always knew that Emmett Till did not whistle at that woman he grew up in Chicago he would never whistle at a white woman and especially in the south Chicago was a very racist city every little black boy in Chicago at that time would’ve known that you do not whistle at white women especially if you’re in the south the story never made sense.
@@anuday2022 They could have been afraid for they life and lie because they was threatened .
@@lindaharris3432 Definitely I do think they were afraid for their lives and they went along with the script because they still had to live down there with those people but I never believed that Emmett Till whistled at a white woman you didn’t do this in Chicago I know my father grew up in Chicago during that time he said Chicago was very racist no different than they south Chicago had all day neighborhoods where Black people could not go into for threat of being attacked or worse. Chicago was surrounded by racist white suburbs police would threatened to drop Black kids off in certain areas knowing that they would get beaten up really bad. or killed. Even Martin Luther King Junior when he visited Chicago he could not believe the hatred that he faced when he came to Chicago..
I’m sorry I was long-winded in my response but I’m saying all this to say that because Emmett Till was from Chicago and all the racism that Black people faced back then in Chicago I just could not believe he went down to the south and tried to flirt with a white woman at 14 years old just never believed the story!
Thank you!!!! Finally someone said this that’s exactly what she stated that is correct.
She lied 🤥 because she is a terrible human being. That’s why 🤨
This man didn't tell the whole truth. How sad. Left out a whole lot of things.
She lied because she could she kept the story to protect her self and her family
Truth
Like a loose string that kept getting pulled.
Like most so-called black educated American women; she won't ask him the real questions as to why he's looking to take advantage of his death.
Maybe, she can only ask certain question that her boss allows her to.
Randy Thomas Like so called white educated women ,you are talking trash here ,i wonder where your white beter than others smart white brain went while making this comment, why don't you send e-mail to gayle and tell her whst you want here to ask smart (yeah right !) snowflake .She is not saying what you want to here and you can't stand it,ofcourse ,we white folks can't stand the truth when it comes to race ,so the only thing you can do is crticize her for nothing as usual while these are not even gayles opinion but what is on the book. ALWAYS THINKING WE ARE BETTER OFF THAN OTHERS ON THE PLANET.Say what you want ,call me black people lover ,i don't care cos i don't want to be part of these evil,and i'm calling it out for what it is .
+Randy Thomas Your resentment of "black educated American women" won't help you any more than poor whites' resentment of ALL African Americans in the workforce. It's these same black women who are fighting for you, however imperfectly. Grow and expand your consciousness.
Carolyn Bryant one of Gail's role model
@@defacto7392 It's "Gayle".
Stop interrupting! His story is very important
It’s crazy to think adults that did this to a kid Can still sleep soundly at night and Continue to do so like it was a stroll in the park
It's not crazy when you think about slavery what they were doing to our ancestors Not me but my ancestors. And we think we got it bad now.
One of the most heartless cruel actions I've ever heard of in my life.
Indeed, but sadly, there is another worst horrific lynching. Done to a young black man with learning difficulties. And it was not done just by a few people, but by all the town. I'll better not talk about it. So, yes. It is sad and sick.
Margo Mason to date.😢

Still going on. Honeslty we are due for a good clean up. ...
The media should be promoting for that woman to go to jail.
It's very important to keep Emmett's story alive! It stands for all victims of racism.
Exactly I was telling people about this 15 years ago. They should have made a movie way before black panther.
It’s very interesting how this man was able to get a interview with this woman who declined everyone. He held on to this for seven years before releasing it? I wouldn’t buy his book. Can’t no one tell me about Emmett Till but his mother and family. I careless to hear about his killers, while he describe them in a more pleasing light.
Maybe he used a different approach
Am I missing something I NEVER HEARD HIM SAY WHY SHE LIED? she let him off the hook with that IMPORTANT QUESTION
Trey Smada - the “interviewer” would not stop interrupting, and allow him to complete his responses - this interview was beyond infuriating! 😑
Trey Smada Brutal Deaths of black children was romanticized at the time in lullaby’s, cartoons, etc. they threw a black two year old into a burning building and killed the child in Mississippi during this time in a race riot... it just was what they did i have no answers for their brutality
@@babyyodachelsea7034 I appreciate you. I still wished she didn't let him off the hook. Sorry just getting back at you.👑
He could have answered if he wanted.. He couldn't get it out because there was no reason
@@killary_Banx agree
How can these "freakin sociopaths" feel there is a standard of "purity" yet, they can do these hideous acts against a child..how psychotic
I don’t give any credit to anything Timothy Tyson has to say. He met with Carolyn Bryant and her daughter-in-law for one reason, such was to discuss the publication of her “memoir.” To make a long story short, her memoir was unpublishable, so he agreed to archive it, and any discussion they had about her part in Emmett’s death amounted to nothing. I believe He fabricated her remorseful comments, as well as her recantation. And for those who keep asking why Carolyn Bryant hasn’t been held accountable for lying, I will explain: The case was reopened again in 2017, when Tyson’s book detailing her recantation came out. But he did not document anything she said. He didn’t transcribe her recantation, and he didn’t record it. When the fbi interviewed Carolyn, she denied that she ever told Tyson she lied. And her daughter-in-late also denied it. That’s why they closed the case and didn’t charge her with anything. There are one of two reasons as to why he didn’t document her recantation : she never recanted, or she did recant, but he didn’t want to produce any evidence that could be used against her legally, so he just took a mental note of what she said for his book. I also don’t doubt that Carolyn received some sort of financial compensation from this book. Regardless, we don’t need information from Timothy Tyson or Carolyn Bryant to know that she lied. If you study the case, witnesses who were present in the store have said that he did nothing more than barely touch her hand as he gave her his money and whistled as she left the store. He didn’t ask her for a date. He didn’t grab her wrist. He didn’t chase her around the store and grab her by the waist. He didn’t make obscene comments. Her own sister-in-law said she was a liar who made it up because she was tired of running the store by herself and felt that her husband would be home more often to help if she came up with a “wild story” about being harassed by a black man.
Great comment, Michael!!! I bought this guy's book to see that Carolyn Bryant finally told the truth about the incident and hopefully would apologize to the Till family. This book ended up being a "mish mash" of everything I've ever read about Emmett! In the back of my mind, I wondered why she was recanting her story now after all of this time. I thought maybe she was trying to "get right with God" Whatever the case, I'm disappointed and I hate I dropped $20 on his book!!
Timothy Tyson said with his book he wants to encourage people to do something against the racial violence . But he does not practice his own message. He had the truth from Carolyn Bryant’s own words for 7 years after he interviewed her before he published this book and still he never brought her public to be prosecuted. This makes me very mad. The lady died and never paid for her crime.
