No, I'm just
doing a little shopping.

14
00:02:04,512 --> 00:02:06,881
We also have shoes
in the basement.

know that too?

16
00:02:11,419 --> 00:02:13,054
Mama.

00:02:13,087 --> 00:02:15,123
Which one do you like better?

18
00:02:15,156 --> 00:02:16,090
Pardon me.

19
00:02:20,495 --> 00:02:22,665
I think I like this one.

20
00:02:22,698 --> 00:02:25,201
Will you really need a wallet
while you're down there?

21
00:02:25,235 --> 00:02:27,102
Oh, Mama. Please?

00:02:29,306 --> 00:02:30,340
Okay. Fine.

You did that.

You didn't stutter,
not one time.

34
00:03:22,892 --> 00:03:23,793
Now, Bo, you know

35
00:03:23,827 --> 00:03:25,695
it's time for you
to go to bed.

36
00:03:26,364 --> 00:03:27,897
Aw...

37
00:03:27,931 --> 00:03:30,267
You know you got
a big day tomorrow.

38
00:03:30,301 --> 00:03:31,901
Come on. Give Grandma a hug.

39
00:03:37,375 --> 00:03:38,575
I'll see you
when you get back.

40
00:03:38,608 --> 00:03:39,809
Bring it in.

41
00:03:42,645 --> 00:03:43,613
Good night, Mr. G.

42
00:03:43,646 --> 00:03:44,849
All right.

43
00:03:46,017 --> 00:03:47,084
Oh.

44
00:03:47,118 --> 00:03:49,620
You two don't get married
before I get back.

45
00:03:49,653 --> 00:03:51,555
Can't get married
without my best man.

46
00:03:52,056 --> 00:03:53,225
Good night.

47
00:03:55,993 --> 00:03:57,528
What?
Is it my bedtime too?

48
00:03:58,330 --> 00:03:59,398
Could be.

49
00:04:02,099 --> 00:04:03,134
Good night.

50
00:04:04,269 --> 00:04:06,537
I'll call you
after Bo gets on the train.

51
00:04:08,473 --> 00:04:09,740
Mrs. Spearman.

52
00:04:10,908 --> 00:04:12,176
She'll see you tomorrow.

53
00:04:12,210 --> 00:04:13,911
- All right. Good night.
- Good night.

54
00:04:19,418 --> 00:04:20,885
What's wrong, Mamie?

55
00:04:25,557 --> 00:04:27,559
We've never been apart
this long.

56
00:04:29,362 --> 00:04:31,963
He's just going
to see his cousins.

57
00:04:31,997 --> 00:04:34,333
It's not a bad thing for him
to know where he come from.

58
00:04:34,367 --> 00:04:36,635
Well, Chicago is all
he needs to know.

59
00:04:36,668 --> 00:04:38,603
I don't want him
seeing himself

60
00:04:38,637 --> 00:04:40,906
the way those people
are seen down there.

61
00:04:42,174 --> 00:04:43,642
Those people like me?

62
00:04:45,877 --> 00:04:48,113
Even you
left Mississippi, Mama.

63
00:04:50,450 --> 00:04:53,652
Mamie, Bo is growing up.

64
00:04:54,454 --> 00:04:56,322
You gonna have to let him go.

65
00:04:58,257 --> 00:05:00,692
All right, I know that face.

66
00:05:00,725 --> 00:05:01,927
That is the face of

67
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,430
"Mama, mind your business,
and go home."

68
00:05:04,464 --> 00:05:05,498
Where's my pocket book?

69
00:05:05,531 --> 00:05:06,732
Mm-hmm. Right here.

70
00:05:06,766 --> 00:05:07,900
Oh, there it is.

71
00:05:08,801 --> 00:05:11,572
You need to get you
some rest too.

72
00:05:11,604 --> 00:05:12,905
- I will.
- Come on, baby.

73
00:05:12,939 --> 00:05:14,941
-I'll call you tomorrow.
-All right.

74
00:05:20,012 --> 00:05:22,282
-Good night, Mama.
-Good night, darlin'.

75
00:06:08,429 --> 00:06:09,430

All right, now,
you're gonna miss your train.

102
00:07:21,705 --> 00:07:24,173
Bo, when you get down there...

103
00:07:24,207 --> 00:07:25,841
Oh, not again, Mama.

104
00:07:25,874 --> 00:07:27,410
I've already
been to Mississippi.

105
00:07:27,444 --> 00:07:28,811
Only one time before,

106
00:07:28,844 --> 00:07:31,914
and you started a fight
with another little boy.

107
00:07:31,947 --> 00:07:34,817
He was picking on me.

108
00:07:34,850 --> 00:07:36,686
You're in the right
to stand up for yourself,

109
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:38,421
but that's not
what I'm talking about.

110
00:07:42,758 --> 00:07:44,327
Well, they have
a different set of rules

111
00:07:44,361 --> 00:07:45,428
for Negroes down there.

112
00:07:45,462 --> 00:07:46,762
Are you listening?

113
00:07:47,564 --> 00:07:49,332
Yes.

114
00:07:49,366 --> 00:07:51,768
You have to be extra careful
with White people.

115
00:07:51,801 --> 00:07:54,070
You can't risk looking at them
the wrong way.

116
00:07:54,104 --> 00:07:55,105
I know.

117
00:07:57,308 --> 00:07:58,309
Bo.

118
00:08:00,010 --> 00:08:02,078
Be small down there.

119
00:08:03,581 --> 00:08:04,781
Like this?

120
00:08:23,133 --> 00:08:24,834
Instead of your father's ring,

121
00:08:24,868 --> 00:08:26,337
how about you wear
the cufflinks

122
00:08:26,370 --> 00:08:27,638
we got you last Christmas?

123
00:08:27,672 --> 00:08:29,707
They'll look so handsome
on you.

124
00:08:29,740 --> 00:08:31,777
No, Mama.

125
00:08:31,809 --> 00:08:33,278
I wanna wear the ring.

126
00:08:44,623 --> 00:08:46,824
Thank you.

127
00:08:47,359 --> 00:08:48,593
Go on downstairs.

128
00:08:48,627 --> 00:08:50,429
I need to finish
getting ready myself.

129
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:15,355
Ah, morning, Mamie!

130
00:09:15,388 --> 00:09:17,490
Morning, Preacher.
Good morning, Wheeler.

131
00:09:17,523 --> 00:09:18,890
Hi, Miss Mamie.
Hi, Bo.

132
00:09:18,924 --> 00:09:20,760
You're leaving
Chicago too soon.

133
00:09:20,793 --> 00:09:22,094
You were only here a few days.

134
00:09:22,127 --> 00:09:23,696
I didn't need
no more days than that.

135
00:09:23,730 --> 00:09:25,631
I got to see some family,
a few friends.

136
00:09:25,665 --> 00:09:26,766
Maybe we get you
to come down...

137
00:09:26,799 --> 00:09:27,866
- ...see us.
- All aboard!

138
00:09:27,899 --> 00:09:29,235
I like it just fine out here,
Preacher.

139
00:09:29,268 --> 00:09:30,035
All right, now.

140
00:09:30,068 --> 00:09:31,771
Bo, stay close
to your cousins.

141
00:09:31,804 --> 00:09:33,105
Preacher, you and Aunty Lizzie

142
00:09:33,138 --> 00:09:35,641
make sure Bo calls and writes
every chance he gets.

143
00:09:35,675 --> 00:09:37,243
I need to know he's okay.

144
00:09:37,276 --> 00:09:38,378
Don't worry.

145
00:09:38,411 --> 00:09:40,513
Me, Lizzie, and the boys
will have a stern eye on him.

146
00:09:40,546 --> 00:09:42,180
Goodbye, Mamie.

147
00:09:43,783 --> 00:09:45,385
All right, now.
Come on, Bobo.

148
00:09:45,418 --> 00:09:46,252
Buh-bye, Mama.

149
00:09:46,285 --> 00:09:48,521
Oh, Bo!
You didn't kiss me goodbye.

150
00:09:48,554 --> 00:09:50,088
Mama. I gotta go.

151
00:09:51,022 --> 00:09:52,190
Listen to Preacher.

152
00:09:52,225 --> 00:09:54,728
Stay with your cousins
at all times.

153
00:09:54,762 --> 00:09:56,497
Be extra careful.

154
00:09:56,530 --> 00:09:58,131
I already know.

155
00:10:01,468 --> 00:10:02,469
You know what?

156
00:10:03,936 --> 00:10:06,240
I won't need to keep the time
on my vacation.

157
00:10:06,774 --> 00:10:07,808
Wind it every day.

158
00:10:07,841 --> 00:10:09,476
Last call!
Train's leaving!

159
00:10:16,216 --> 00:10:18,285
Buh-bye, Mama.

160
00:10:18,318 --> 00:10:20,186
Come on, Bobo.
Aight, Mamie.

161
00:11:20,048 --> 00:11:21,383
Time to move now.

162
00:12:24,915 --> 00:12:26,283
Now,

163
00:12:26,316 --> 00:12:28,318
all you gotta do
is pinch the bract right here,

164
00:12:28,351 --> 00:12:30,654
so you don't
get your fingertips...

165
00:12:32,355 --> 00:12:35,392
Hey, look at the size
of that bird.

166
00:12:36,326 --> 00:12:37,661
Whoa!

167
00:12:37,694 --> 00:12:39,564
Where'd you get that ring?

168
00:12:39,597 --> 00:12:41,632
Oh, it was my daddy's.

169
00:12:41,666 --> 00:12:43,601
He died a hero in the war.

170
00:12:44,402 --> 00:12:46,136
Well, let me try it on.

171
00:12:47,038 --> 00:12:49,340
Um, maybe later.

172
00:12:49,740 --> 00:12:50,741
All right.

173
00:13:04,154 --> 00:13:05,590
- Bo?
- Is he all right?

174
00:13:06,089 --> 00:13:07,291
Bobo!

175
00:13:07,658 --> 00:13:08,659
Come on.

176
00:13:09,427 --> 00:13:11,194
Roar!

177
00:13:11,228 --> 00:13:14,130
From the depths
of an ancient tomb,

178
00:13:14,164 --> 00:13:16,701
echoes a sound
that shakes the world.

179
00:13:17,301 --> 00:13:19,805
Meet the mummy, Simmy!

180
00:13:19,838 --> 00:13:21,073
Stop!

181
00:13:21,105 --> 00:13:22,541
You gonna get us in trouble.

182
00:13:22,574 --> 00:13:26,678
Or better yet, fired.
I'm done picking these fields.

183
00:13:26,712 --> 00:13:28,847
What do y'all do
with all this cotton anyway?

184
00:13:29,848 --> 00:13:31,683
We sell it.

185
00:13:31,717 --> 00:13:34,419
Mr. Frederick, who own
the land, take his share.

186
00:13:34,453 --> 00:13:36,521
I go to market with our haul.

187
00:13:36,555 --> 00:13:39,358
- Sounds pretty square.
- Hmm.

188
00:13:39,391 --> 00:13:40,926
Pa, you gonna let him
sass you that way?

189
00:13:40,959 --> 00:13:42,193
What way?

190
00:13:42,227 --> 00:13:43,895
The boy doesn't know
where his clothes come from.

191
00:13:46,798 --> 00:13:47,699
Nah.

192
00:13:47,733 --> 00:13:49,968
I take it back, Bobo.
Stay off the farm.

193
00:13:51,637 --> 00:13:53,972
City boy won't even know
how he found a whuppin'.

194
00:14:32,177 --> 00:14:34,113
Yes, he is.

195
00:14:34,147 --> 00:14:35,615
Damn near pass out.

196
00:14:41,554 --> 00:14:43,757
Come on, sit down.
Sit down, come on.

197
00:14:48,629 --> 00:14:49,697
Hey, young boy.

198
00:14:51,498 --> 00:14:52,866
How you doin' there,
young fella?

199
00:14:52,900 --> 00:14:53,967
Come on, learn somethin'.

200
00:14:54,001 --> 00:14:55,335
Well, I'm about raised
from the dead

201
00:14:55,369 --> 00:14:56,603
by all this excitement.

202
00:14:58,305 --> 00:14:59,339
Pay attention here,

203
00:14:59,373 --> 00:15:00,974
you gonna let us
learn you something.

204
00:15:02,409 --> 00:15:03,577
I'll make damn sure.

205
00:15:03,610 --> 00:15:05,679
I'mma do what I do.

206
00:15:20,194 --> 00:15:21,528
Thank you, ma'am.

207
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:33,908
You look like a movie star.

208
00:15:34,843 --> 00:15:35,844
What?

209
00:15:41,082 --> 00:15:42,283
Where's Bobo?

210
00:15:42,317 --> 00:15:44,185
He's in there.

211
00:15:44,220 --> 00:15:47,288
Simmy. See to Bobo
while he's inside.

212
00:15:53,962 --> 00:15:54,963
See?

213
00:16:06,275 --> 00:16:07,476
Come on.

214
00:16:08,010 --> 00:16:09,145
Bye!

215
00:16:09,178 --> 00:16:11,248
Buh-bye!

216
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:13,282
- Come on, let's go!
- Yeah?

217
00:16:34,503 --> 00:16:36,705
She getting her gun.
She getting her gun, y'all.

218
00:16:36,739 --> 00:16:37,706
Come on! Move!

219
00:16:37,740 --> 00:16:38,941
-Get up, now! Come on!
-Move!

220
00:16:38,974 --> 00:16:41,811
Move!
She goin' to get a gun, y'all!

221
00:16:41,844 --> 00:16:44,413
- Get in!
- Just lay low.

222
00:16:44,446 --> 00:16:45,649
Come on, Mau!

223
00:17:53,651 --> 00:17:55,052
Why aren't you at work?

224
00:17:57,289 --> 00:17:58,556
Is everything okay?

225
00:18:00,691 --> 00:18:03,060
That trip we planned
to take Bo on?

226
00:18:03,461 --> 00:18:04,662
Let's go now.

227
00:18:06,365 --> 00:18:08,567
You wanna go right now?

228
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:10,068
You said you weren't feeling
that well.

229
00:18:10,102 --> 00:18:12,604
I was just missing Bo.

230
00:18:16,708 --> 00:18:19,811
I'm still missing Bo.

231
00:18:19,845 --> 00:18:21,580
We have never been apart
this long,

232
00:18:21,613 --> 00:18:23,316
and he's gonna be gone
another week.

233
00:18:23,349 --> 00:18:25,218
I need to keep doing things

234
00:18:25,251 --> 00:18:28,553
to take my mind off
of this feelin'.

235
00:18:31,690 --> 00:18:32,691
Okay.

236
00:18:33,393 --> 00:18:35,694
I can't go right now, but, uh,

237
00:18:36,296 --> 00:18:37,397
we'll try in a few days.

238
00:18:37,429 --> 00:18:40,165
Promise me
we'll go on the trip?

239
00:18:41,867 --> 00:18:42,868
Of course.

240
00:18:58,551 --> 00:19:01,388
I'm trying not to act
so silly!

241
00:19:01,422 --> 00:19:02,855
Better watch yourself.

242
00:19:04,090 --> 00:19:06,360
I don't know,
'cause when he looks at me,

243
00:19:06,393 --> 00:19:08,429
I just lose my mind!

244
00:19:08,461 --> 00:19:10,797
Oh!
But just be yourself.

245
00:19:10,830 --> 00:19:14,000
Okay. I'll try.
It's gonna be all right.

246
00:19:18,571 --> 00:19:21,342
Oh! Nice try.

247
00:19:21,375 --> 00:19:22,842
It's a high-speed
competition, huh?

248
00:19:22,875 --> 00:19:24,911
They call you city boy,
or somethin'?

249
00:19:27,414 --> 00:19:29,048
Think you so damn funny, huh?

250
00:19:31,419 --> 00:19:32,720
Why you whistle like that?

251
00:19:33,787 --> 00:19:36,358
Look, it's been three days,
okay?

252
00:19:36,391 --> 00:19:37,624
And we haven't heard
nothin' more

253
00:19:37,658 --> 00:19:38,892
about what I did in Money.

254
00:19:38,926 --> 00:19:40,928
That's 'cause no one knows
your face 'round here.

255
00:19:40,961 --> 00:19:42,330
That don't mean
they not in one of 'em cars

256
00:19:42,364 --> 00:19:43,398
looking for us.

257
00:19:43,431 --> 00:19:45,032
Look, I said I was sorry.

258
00:19:46,234 --> 00:19:47,868
We gotta tell Pappa.

259
00:19:47,901 --> 00:19:50,271
We all agreed
we wouldn't say anything.

260
00:19:50,305 --> 00:19:51,805
He'll make
Bobo go home.

261
00:19:51,839 --> 00:19:53,540
So what?

262
00:19:53,574 --> 00:19:55,477
You don't see what's been
going on around here?

263
00:19:55,509 --> 00:19:56,710
They killin' Negroes

264
00:19:56,744 --> 00:19:59,414
for doing way less
than what you did in Money.

265
00:19:59,447 --> 00:20:01,282
You ain't no White man, Bobo.
You one of us!

266
00:20:01,316 --> 00:20:02,549
Hey, leave him alone, Maurice.

267
00:20:02,583 --> 00:20:04,352
Mrs. Bryant must've kept it
to herself.

268
00:20:04,386 --> 00:20:05,886
No one has to know.

269
00:20:24,706 --> 00:20:27,443
Willie Mae, Ollie,

270
00:20:27,476 --> 00:20:29,978
I swear you two are losing
on purpose.

271
00:20:30,011 --> 00:20:31,913
Yeah, well, you must have
all the luck tonight, Mamie.

272
00:20:31,946 --> 00:20:33,915
Mm-hmm.

273
00:20:33,948 --> 00:20:35,583
Now, we've been here
all night,

274
00:20:35,617 --> 00:20:37,919
and you still haven't told us
what's bothering you.

275
00:20:37,952 --> 00:20:39,388
I'm fine.

276
00:20:39,422 --> 00:20:41,257
I got a letter today
from Aunty Lizzie.

277
00:20:41,290 --> 00:20:44,460
She said Bo is really happy.
That's all I needed to hear.

278
00:20:44,493 --> 00:20:45,860
Mm.

279
00:20:45,894 --> 00:20:47,128
- That's real good, Mamie.
-  -Mm-hmm.

280
00:20:47,162 --> 00:20:49,097
My boy, Curtis, just made it
down to Mississippi.

281
00:20:49,130 --> 00:20:49,998
I already told Uncle,

282
00:20:50,031 --> 00:20:51,733
"Make sure he see Bo
tomorrow."

283
00:20:51,766 --> 00:20:53,069
Bo would like that.

284
00:20:53,102 --> 00:20:54,203
Yeah.

285
00:20:54,237 --> 00:20:55,838
It'd be nice for him
to have another friend...

286
00:20:55,871 --> 00:20:57,907
- ...from the city there with him.
-  -Mm-hmm.

287
00:20:57,940 --> 00:20:59,642
Oh, he just
doesn't understand

288
00:20:59,675 --> 00:21:01,411
how different things are
down there.

289
00:21:01,445 --> 00:21:02,645
Yeah.

290
00:21:02,678 --> 00:21:05,449
Aunty Lizzie said
Bo's been working the fields.

291
00:21:05,482 --> 00:21:07,517
Oh!

292
00:21:07,551 --> 00:21:10,853
I can't imagine
Bo in the hot sun

293
00:21:10,886 --> 00:21:12,688
all day pulling some cotton.

294
00:21:12,721 --> 00:21:14,090
No.

295
00:21:14,123 --> 00:21:17,561
But Aunty Lizzie said I raised
one nice, hardworking boy.

296
00:21:17,593 --> 00:21:19,161
- That's my Bo.
- Yes.

297
00:21:23,599 --> 00:21:25,835
Can't believe
he's been gone a week.

298
00:21:26,836 --> 00:21:29,004
Gene and I wanna take
a trip soon,

299
00:21:29,038 --> 00:21:31,241
but I really wanna go down
to Mississippi

300
00:21:31,274 --> 00:21:32,741
and bring my son home.

301
00:21:33,677 --> 00:21:36,079
If Bo could just
get his feet back

302
00:21:36,113 --> 00:21:39,082
onto the Chicago soil,
he'd be one happy kid.

303
00:21:46,390 --> 00:21:48,859
I... I don't know
why I said that.

304
00:21:53,663 --> 00:21:55,299
Looks like
your little winning streak

305
00:21:55,333 --> 00:21:56,334
is over, Mamie.

306
00:22:00,770 --> 00:22:03,474
Well, look at that.

307
00:22:03,508 --> 00:22:04,908
You wanna play
one more hand?

308
00:22:04,941 --> 00:22:05,742
Sure.

309
00:22:05,775 --> 00:22:07,278
But you deal this time.

310
00:22:07,311 --> 00:22:09,646
Absolutely.
You still gonna lose.

311
00:22:13,717 --> 00:22:15,853
These cards, girl.

312
00:22:16,988 --> 00:22:18,723
<i>A grand jury has declined</i>

313
00:22:18,756 --> 00:22:20,024
<i>to indict the suspect</i>

319
00:22:41,012 --> 00:22:43,248
Pappa, you and Mama
ain't asleep?

320
00:22:43,282 --> 00:22:44,182
Mm.

321
00:22:44,215 --> 00:22:46,684
How can we sleep
when y'all ain't home yet?

322
00:22:46,717 --> 00:22:48,620
What'd you boys
get into tonight?

323
00:22:48,654 --> 00:22:50,556
Nothing much, Daddy.
Just taking Bobo around.

324
00:22:50,589 --> 00:22:51,923
Mm.

325
00:22:51,956 --> 00:22:53,559
All right. Night, Ma.
Night, Pa.

326
00:22:53,592 --> 00:22:54,660
- Good night.
- Night night.

327
00:22:54,692 --> 00:22:55,827
Good night.

328
00:22:58,531 --> 00:22:59,731
Bobo!

329
00:23:03,469 --> 00:23:04,703
We leaving early tomorrow

330
00:23:04,736 --> 00:23:06,805
to mail that letter out
to your mama, you hear?

331
00:23:07,574 --> 00:23:10,677
Okay. Good night.

332
00:23:10,709 --> 00:23:12,378
Good night.

333
00:23:12,412 --> 00:23:15,515
That was close.

334
00:23:15,548 --> 00:23:18,183
<i>...after having</i>
<i>registered dozens of Negroes</i>

335
00:23:18,217 --> 00:23:20,486

<i>No charges have been made.</i>

337
00:24:49,611 --> 00:24:50,878
Preacher!

338
00:24:51,646 --> 00:24:52,913
Preacher!

339
00:24:54,014 --> 00:24:55,383
Who is it?

340
00:24:55,417 --> 00:24:56,251
It's Mr. Bryant.

341
00:24:56,284 --> 00:24:58,486
I wanna talk to you
about that boy.

342
00:25:01,022 --> 00:25:01,856
Sir?

343
00:25:01,890 --> 00:25:02,991
I want that boy

344
00:25:03,024 --> 00:25:05,093
who did the talking down
in Money.

345
00:25:05,761 --> 00:25:08,129
Talking, sir? What talking?

346
00:25:08,163 --> 00:25:09,964
Open up this door,
Preacher!

347
00:25:12,268 --> 00:25:13,269
Bobo!

348
00:25:14,869 --> 00:25:17,205
You better open up
this door, Preacher!

349
00:25:17,239 --> 00:25:18,741
Bobo! Wake up!

350
00:25:19,908 --> 00:25:21,711
Leave me alone.

351
00:25:21,744 --> 00:25:22,778
Get up! Someone's come!

352
00:25:22,812 --> 00:25:24,313
You know
who I'm talking about!

353
00:25:24,347 --> 00:25:25,381
So what?

354
00:25:25,414 --> 00:25:26,848
They've come for you!

355
00:25:26,881 --> 00:25:28,250
I don't know.

356
00:25:28,284 --> 00:25:29,352
Who's come?

357
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:32,755
I don't know what you mean,
Mr. Bryant.

358
00:25:32,788 --> 00:25:35,056
You got that boy
from Chicago.

359
00:25:55,878 --> 00:25:57,447
You that big mouth nigger?

360
00:25:58,415 --> 00:25:59,349
Who are you?

361
00:26:00,182 --> 00:26:01,585
Get your clothes on.

362
00:26:05,355 --> 00:26:08,392
Mr. Bryant,
you ain't got to do this.

363
00:26:08,425 --> 00:26:09,659
He just a young boy.

364
00:26:09,693 --> 00:26:10,993
Better shut them eyes.

365
00:26:11,026 --> 00:26:12,429
- Oh!
- Simmy!

366
00:26:23,341 --> 00:26:25,909
You don't need
no goddamn socks, boy.

367
00:26:28,246 --> 00:26:30,415
I... I don't wear shoes
without socks.

368
00:26:32,517 --> 00:26:34,017
Don't talk back to them!

369
00:26:34,050 --> 00:26:35,553
We just gonna
teach him a lesson.

370
00:26:35,586 --> 00:26:36,754
Stay right here, Simmy!

371
00:26:36,788 --> 00:26:37,889
- Please!
- Move!

372
00:26:37,921 --> 00:26:39,290
- Don't take him!
- Move!

373
00:26:39,323 --> 00:26:42,125
I'll whup him
if he's done something wrong!

374
00:26:42,159 --> 00:26:44,729
We'll give you money.

375
00:26:44,762 --> 00:26:45,863
Watch out.

376
00:26:45,897 --> 00:26:47,097
We don't need no money!

377
00:26:47,832 --> 00:26:48,766
Please!

378
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:50,635
The boy ain't got good sense.

379
00:26:50,668 --> 00:26:51,968
He's gonna learn!

380
00:26:55,071 --> 00:26:56,441
But, Mr. Bryant!

381
00:26:59,943 --> 00:27:01,245
What'd you say
to my brother?

382
00:27:14,793 --> 00:27:15,993
All right. Get up.

383
00:27:19,231 --> 00:27:20,332
Carolyn!

384
00:27:21,500 --> 00:27:22,668
Is this the right nigger?

385
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:29,575
That's the one.

386
00:27:30,342 --> 00:27:31,376
All right.

387
00:27:33,779 --> 00:27:34,947
Get off me.

388
00:27:34,979 --> 00:27:36,648
Shut up, boy! Shut up.

389
00:27:39,318 --> 00:27:41,753
All right.

390
00:28:40,881 --> 00:28:42,148
Look at me, boy!

391
00:28:44,150 --> 00:28:45,519
Hold him down!

392
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:49,188
Watch it, now!

393
00:28:51,157 --> 00:28:52,191
Shut your mouth!

394
00:28:54,193 --> 00:28:55,930
Come on. Get up! Get up!

395
00:28:55,963 --> 00:28:56,997
Hold him up!

396
00:29:45,981 --> 00:29:47,182
Hello?

397
00:29:53,289 --> 00:29:55,424
Get out of the way, Gene!
I gotta get to Money!

398
00:29:55,458 --> 00:29:57,093
Money? Money?
Mamie, what's going on?

399
00:29:57,125 --> 00:29:58,327
They took Bo!

400
00:29:58,361 --> 00:29:59,662
-Who took Bo?
-I...

401
00:29:59,695 --> 00:30:01,764
Preacher told me two men came
and got Bo last night.

402
00:30:01,797 --> 00:30:03,299
I couldn't hear anything else
after that.

403
00:30:03,332 --> 00:30:04,967
-I gotta find Bo!
-Mamie! Mamie! Mamie!

404
00:30:05,001 --> 00:30:08,104
Mamie, let's go inside,
call your mama,

405
00:30:08,136 --> 00:30:10,138
try and get in touch with
Preacher and Aunty Lizzie

406
00:30:10,171 --> 00:30:11,374
for more information, okay?

407
00:30:12,408 --> 00:30:14,377
Come on. Come on.

408
00:30:16,912 --> 00:30:19,849
We give you
all the glory, Lord.

409
00:30:19,882 --> 00:30:21,617
-Glory to God.
-Yes.

410
00:30:21,651 --> 00:30:25,087
Glory to God.
Yes, Lord. Glory to God.

411
00:30:25,121 --> 00:30:27,155
- Yes.
- Mm-hmm.

412
00:30:27,188 --> 00:30:29,760
He's going to bring him
back to you, baby.

413
00:30:31,028 --> 00:30:32,362
Yes, ma'am.

414
00:30:34,931 --> 00:30:36,133
Alma.

415
00:30:36,165 --> 00:30:37,534
Thank you.

416
00:30:40,671 --> 00:30:41,672
Mamie.

417
00:30:43,140 --> 00:30:44,341
Alma.

418
00:30:45,308 --> 00:30:46,843
You weren't going to tell me?

419
00:30:48,245 --> 00:30:49,913
I called your wife.

420
00:30:52,849 --> 00:30:56,687
No matter the differences
between me and your mother,

421
00:30:57,254 --> 00:30:58,922
I'm still your father.

422
00:31:00,157 --> 00:31:01,358
Mamie,

423
00:31:02,659 --> 00:31:04,928
we're gonna find Bo.

424
00:31:04,961 --> 00:31:07,330
- Mm.
- Sit down.

425
00:31:07,364 --> 00:31:10,702
I brought your cousin along
to help us.

426
00:31:10,735 --> 00:31:14,305
Do you remember Rayfield?
Rayfield Mooty.

427
00:31:15,373 --> 00:31:18,409
Came by the house a lot
when you was a kid.

428
00:31:18,443 --> 00:31:21,145
He works with some
powerful Negro people

429
00:31:21,179 --> 00:31:22,947
who can help us find Bo.

430
00:31:24,549 --> 00:31:26,284
It's been a long time, ma'am.

431
00:31:26,317 --> 00:31:28,286
- Nice to see you again.
- Mm.

432
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:30,521
Mamie.

433
00:31:31,522 --> 00:31:34,492
Oh. I'm sorry.

434
00:31:34,525 --> 00:31:37,795
Thank you for coming,
Mr. Mooty.

435
00:31:37,829 --> 00:31:39,229
I've, uh...

436
00:31:40,865 --> 00:31:45,570
I've been in touch
with Mr. William Huff,

437
00:31:45,603 --> 00:31:49,340
counsel for the NAACP chapter
here in Chicago.

438
00:31:49,373 --> 00:31:52,244
He wants to meet with you
first thing tomorrow morning.

439
00:31:52,277 --> 00:31:55,547
I've included the address
to his office.

440
00:31:56,515 --> 00:31:57,516
Here.

441
00:32:00,419 --> 00:32:01,787
He has political connections

442
00:32:01,820 --> 00:32:03,722
throughout the state
of Mississippi.

443
00:32:03,756 --> 00:32:06,225
And he's in regular contact
with Mayor Daley,

444
00:32:06,291 --> 00:32:08,894
Congressman Dawson,
and Governor Stratton.

445
00:32:10,262 --> 00:32:12,898
I do know the NAACP,

446
00:32:12,931 --> 00:32:16,668
and it sounds like
he knows the right people

447
00:32:16,702 --> 00:32:20,272
who can help me find Bo.

448
00:32:22,242 --> 00:32:24,042
Well, I'll meet you
in Mr. Huff's office

449
00:32:24,076 --> 00:32:25,744
tomorrow morning at 9:00 a.m.

450
00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:29,715
- Thanks, Ray.
- Mm-hmm.

451
00:32:29,748 --> 00:32:31,284
I will see you soon.

452
00:32:35,822 --> 00:32:37,857
Hey.

453
00:32:39,726 --> 00:32:42,629
<i>♪ At last the leader</i>
<i>turned around and said ♪</i>

454
00:32:42,662 --> 00:32:44,731
<i>♪ Listen, Pops,</i>

455
00:32:44,764 --> 00:32:46,933

456

457
00:33:32,146 --> 00:33:33,347
It's on your calendar,

458
00:33:33,380 --> 00:33:35,082
and you have the meeting
right after that.

459
00:33:35,115 --> 00:33:36,483
Morning!

460
00:33:36,517 --> 00:33:37,985
Hi, John.
How are you today?

461
00:33:56,272 --> 00:33:58,373
Mr. Huff,
this is Mrs. Bradley.

462
00:33:58,406 --> 00:34:00,609
Thank you for meeting with us,
Mr. Huff.

463
00:34:00,642 --> 00:34:02,544
- And Mr. Mobley.
- Yes, thank you.

464
00:34:02,577 --> 00:34:05,547
I have great respect
for your cousin.

465
00:34:05,580 --> 00:34:07,616
His work with the
United Steelworkers has helped

466
00:34:07,649 --> 00:34:10,385
to make it one of
the strongest Negro unions.

467
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:13,521
- I didn't know that.
- Mm-hmm.

468
00:34:17,993 --> 00:34:18,994
Are you employed?

469
00:34:20,661 --> 00:34:21,862
I work for the Air Force.

470
00:34:21,897 --> 00:34:23,864
She's the only Negro woman
in the office.

471
00:34:26,501 --> 00:34:27,936
Mrs. Bradley.

472
00:34:29,371 --> 00:34:30,605
You two aren't married?

473
00:34:31,940 --> 00:34:32,974
Um...

474
00:34:33,007 --> 00:34:34,074
No.

475
00:34:34,109 --> 00:34:35,444
Not yet, anyway.

476
00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:37,713
Where's Emmett's father?

477
00:34:39,815 --> 00:34:43,452
Louis Till died overseas
about 10 years ago.

478
00:34:43,485 --> 00:34:44,887
Uh, during the war.

479
00:34:46,222 --> 00:34:47,956
And Mr. Bradley?

480
00:34:50,493 --> 00:34:52,628
You have a lot of questions
for me, Mr. Huff.

481
00:34:52,661 --> 00:34:55,630
And none of them seem to have
anything to do with my son.

482
00:35:01,971 --> 00:35:03,407
I've been briefed
on your case.

483
00:35:03,439 --> 00:35:05,775
Bo is not a case.

484
00:35:08,744 --> 00:35:10,680
I've drafted
two telegrams to send.

485
00:35:10,713 --> 00:35:12,882
One to Governor White
in Mississippi.

486
00:35:12,915 --> 00:35:14,351
The other
to Governor Stratton,

487
00:35:14,384 --> 00:35:15,986
here in Illinois.

488
00:35:16,019 --> 00:35:17,955
It's important they know
about Emmett.

489
00:35:18,956 --> 00:35:20,824
We're currently investigating
the murders

490
00:35:20,857 --> 00:35:22,893
of Lamar Smith
and Reverend Lee.

491
00:35:22,926 --> 00:35:25,829
They did a lot of work getting
Negroes registered to vote.

492
00:35:25,862 --> 00:35:27,432
Because of what happened
to them,

493
00:35:27,464 --> 00:35:28,799
the Negro press in Mississippi

494
00:35:28,832 --> 00:35:31,402
started to write
about Emmett's kidnapping,

495
00:35:31,436 --> 00:35:33,904
but it's not creating
enough pressure needed

496
00:35:33,937 --> 00:35:37,107
to force them
into a state-wide search.

497
00:35:39,009 --> 00:35:40,577
Now, as your counsel,

498
00:35:40,610 --> 00:35:44,248
I'd like to utilize all of
the press here in Chicago.

499
00:35:44,282 --> 00:35:45,450
It's more likely
to get picked up

500
00:35:45,482 --> 00:35:47,318
by other cities that way.

501
00:35:47,352 --> 00:35:49,086
You're gonna have to talk
to reporters,

502
00:35:50,421 --> 00:35:51,922
speak in front of cameras.

503
00:35:52,622 --> 00:35:55,259
So... we like to make sure

504
00:35:55,293 --> 00:35:58,997
that the person who's telling
the story is in public favor.

505
00:36:01,433 --> 00:36:03,868
It's better that I ask you
questions now

506
00:36:03,901 --> 00:36:06,671
than some reporter
finding something later.

507
00:36:11,709 --> 00:36:13,077
The reverend and Mr. Lee,

508
00:36:13,111 --> 00:36:15,980
I heard they were killed
right before Bo got down there.

509
00:36:16,014 --> 00:36:17,249
Mamie...

510
00:36:17,282 --> 00:36:21,019
I know these Citizen Councils
are everywhere in Mississippi.

511
00:36:21,052 --> 00:36:23,154
You think they had a part
in any of it?

512
00:36:26,291 --> 00:36:28,460
When the message
to White people

513
00:36:28,494 --> 00:36:32,163
is to stop Negroes
from voting or advancing,

514
00:36:33,332 --> 00:36:35,267
by any means
short of violence,

515
00:36:36,667 --> 00:36:37,870
it's only a matter of time

516
00:36:37,903 --> 00:36:40,639
before someone doesn't
stop short of it.

517
00:36:42,375 --> 00:36:44,810
Let's just focus
on finding Bo.

518
00:36:50,549 --> 00:36:52,151
Why do you call him "Bo"?

519
00:36:55,687 --> 00:36:57,956
When I was carrying him,

520
00:36:59,359 --> 00:37:01,528
my mama's friend
would bring him gifts

521
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:03,862
all the time, and say,

522
00:37:03,896 --> 00:37:05,864
"Here's another one
for little Bobo."

523
00:37:07,500 --> 00:37:10,702
After he was born,
it just stuck.

524
00:37:14,573 --> 00:37:17,109
He was a perfect baby.

525
00:37:17,142 --> 00:37:21,114
Born breech, and had
his share of problems, but...

526
00:37:23,716 --> 00:37:27,187
he was a perfect baby.

527
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:48,875
Hi, we live across the street

528
00:37:48,908 --> 00:37:50,910
and read about
what happened to Emmett.

529
00:37:50,944 --> 00:37:54,114
Everybody in the neighborhood
knows that sweet little boy.

530
00:37:59,987 --> 00:38:01,523
But maybe
somebody will read the paper,

531
00:38:01,556 --> 00:38:02,823
and they'll know Bo's ours.

532
00:38:02,857 --> 00:38:05,192
I don't care
what anyone thinks Bo did

533
00:38:05,226 --> 00:38:07,061
or did not do in that store.

534
00:38:07,094 --> 00:38:09,997
They took my child,
and I need him back.

535
00:38:12,133 --> 00:38:14,101
Hello? Mr. Huff!

536
00:38:15,035 --> 00:38:17,506
Yes, yes, yes. I'll get Mamie.

537
00:38:17,539 --> 00:38:19,106
Sounds like he has good news.

538
00:38:20,542 --> 00:38:21,809
Mr. Huff?

539
00:38:22,776 --> 00:38:24,513
He wrote back?

540
00:38:24,546 --> 00:38:26,381
The governor wants to talk
to Mr. Huff

541
00:38:26,414 --> 00:38:27,948
about what happened to Bo.

542
00:38:27,982 --> 00:38:28,983
Thank you.

543
00:38:29,016 --> 00:38:30,985
Thank you for the update,
Mr. Huff.

544
00:38:32,554 --> 00:38:35,022
Okay. I'll be in touch.

545
00:38:51,607 --> 00:38:53,041
A reporter called me.

546
00:38:56,044 --> 00:38:58,213
He didn't wanna
tell you himself.

547
00:39:04,085 --> 00:39:06,656
Bo's body was found
in a river.

548
00:39:06,688 --> 00:39:08,990
Preacher just identified him
to the sheriff.

549
00:39:09,024 --> 00:39:13,695
He... He recognized the ring
Bo was wearing.

550
00:39:18,166 --> 00:39:20,168
I'm so sorry, Mamie.

551
00:39:21,770 --> 00:39:23,340
He's...

552
00:39:24,240 --> 00:39:25,509
He's dead.

553
00:40:14,292 --> 00:40:16,960
<i>This is</i>

554
00:40:17,761 --> 00:40:19,062

558
00:40:27,871 --> 00:40:30,275
<i>Till, a Negro boy</i>

559
00:40:30,308 --> 00:40:32,809
<i>while visiting relatives</i>

560
00:40:32,843 --> 00:40:34,279
<i>Again, that breaking news.</i>

561
00:40:34,312 --> 00:40:37,080
<i>The body of Emmett Louis Till</i>

562
00:40:37,114 --> 00:40:38,683
<i>We'll have details ahead...</i>

563
00:40:38,716 --> 00:40:40,050
<i>...and J.W. Milam</i>

564
00:40:40,083 --> 00:40:41,985

565

568
00:40:47,493 --> 00:40:52,298
<i>We have proved</i>

569
00:40:52,331 --> 00:40:54,832
<i>that the body found</i>

570
00:40:54,866 --> 00:40:56,402

571

<i>We proved</i>

572
00:40:58,870 --> 00:41:00,071
<i>...this lynching</i>

573
00:41:00,104 --> 00:41:01,939
<i>that the state of Mississippi</i>
<i>has decided</i>

574
00:41:01,973 --> 00:41:03,875
<i>to maintain</i>
<i>this White supremacy</i>

575
00:41:03,908 --> 00:41:06,378
<i>by murdering children.</i>

576
00:41:07,812 --> 00:41:10,181
<i>Look, it was because</i>
<i>he was a boy,</i>

577
00:41:10,214 --> 00:41:12,418
<i>that's why they went there.</i>

578
00:41:12,451 --> 00:41:15,654
<i>They had to prove</i>
<i>that they were superior.</i>

579
00:41:15,688 --> 00:41:17,155
<i>They had to prove it</i>

580
00:41:17,188 --> 00:41:21,125
<i>by taking away</i>
<i>a 14-year-old boy.</i>

581
00:41:21,159 --> 00:41:22,628
Mamie, you need
to eat something.

582
00:41:22,661 --> 00:41:24,929
<i>The killers of the boy</i>
<i>felt free to lynch him</i>

583
00:41:24,962 --> 00:41:26,131

584
00:41:26,165 --> 00:41:27,334

586
00:41:31,203 --> 00:41:32,104
<i>Hate.</i>

587
00:41:32,838 --> 00:41:34,407
<i>It's like a virus in the blood</i>

588
00:41:34,441 --> 00:41:35,908
<i>of the Mississippians.</i>

589
00:41:35,941 --> 00:41:37,644
<i>They can't help it.</i>

590
00:41:37,677 --> 00:41:39,144
<i>That was Roy Wilkins...</i>

591
00:41:39,178 --> 00:41:42,081
<i>- ...the executive director</i>

592
00:41:42,114 --> 00:41:43,416
You mind
if I speak with Mamie?

593
00:41:43,450 --> 00:41:44,950

Mamie?

600
00:41:57,029 --> 00:41:57,896
<i>Negro leaders are calling</i>

Uh...

604
00:42:37,671 --> 00:42:41,141
-My sincere condolences...
-Stop.

605
00:42:42,610 --> 00:42:43,611
I can't.

606
00:42:48,215 --> 00:42:50,485
I need Bo's body
sent back here.

607
00:42:52,086 --> 00:42:54,054
I can't have him buried
in Mississippi.

608
00:42:54,088 --> 00:42:56,291
Mississippi won't make
that deal with you.

609
00:42:56,324 --> 00:42:57,325
Then make them.

610
00:43:00,094 --> 00:43:03,765
I'm sure Mr. Huff
can get Mayor Daley

611
00:43:03,799 --> 00:43:05,667
or the governor
to talk to somebody.

612
00:43:08,068 --> 00:43:09,236
Those people in Mississippi

613
00:43:09,271 --> 00:43:11,640
are trying to dump Bo
in the ground

614
00:43:11,673 --> 00:43:13,642
like he's just another body.

615
00:43:13,675 --> 00:43:15,042
He is my baby.

616
00:43:17,144 --> 00:43:18,547
I need to see him.

617
00:43:26,954 --> 00:43:28,457
I'll speak with Mr. Huff.

618
00:43:28,490 --> 00:43:29,459
Thank you.

619
00:43:40,168 --> 00:43:42,103
You know...

620
00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:47,042
Mamie, you have the public's
attention right now.

621
00:43:49,879 --> 00:43:51,146
And, uh,

622
00:43:52,415 --> 00:43:54,917
it would be in
a politician's best interest

623
00:43:54,951 --> 00:43:57,018
to help you
during an election year.

624
00:44:00,055 --> 00:44:02,391
There's an opportunity in that.

625
00:44:08,698 --> 00:44:10,734
Uh...

626
00:44:10,767 --> 00:44:15,706
Some organizers and executive
members of the NAACP

627
00:44:15,739 --> 00:44:18,575
have been speaking
with the justice department

628
00:44:18,609 --> 00:44:19,943
about creating legislation

629
00:44:19,977 --> 00:44:22,513
that would make lynching
a federal crime.

630
00:44:25,282 --> 00:44:28,318
What happened to Reverend Lee
was a lynching.

631
00:44:29,218 --> 00:44:32,054
Lamar Smith. A lynching.

632
00:44:34,691 --> 00:44:35,592
-Emmett...
-I...

633
00:44:37,026 --> 00:44:39,228
uh...

634
00:44:39,997 --> 00:44:43,567
We have an opportunity

635
00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:48,070
to use this moment to help us
pass this legislation.

636
00:44:48,104 --> 00:44:50,641
Might even help you get
an indictment.

637
00:44:50,674 --> 00:44:51,910
Maybe even a conviction.

638
00:44:51,943 --> 00:44:55,380
I can't think about that
right now.

639
00:44:55,413 --> 00:44:58,683
I just need Bo's body
sent back here.

640
00:44:58,716 --> 00:45:02,453
Well, the public's paying
attention right now, Mamie.

641
00:45:03,721 --> 00:45:06,056
See, this doesn't just have
to be about Emmett.

642
00:45:06,089 --> 00:45:08,760
Mr. Mooty, my son is dead!

643
00:45:24,174 --> 00:45:27,812
Make sure
Mr. Huff handles this today.

644
00:45:34,085 --> 00:45:35,421
Yes, ma'am.

645
00:46:26,406 --> 00:46:30,710
Rayfield's ready to
take us to the train station.

646
00:46:35,515 --> 00:46:38,952
I, uh, got you a wheelchair.

647
00:46:38,985 --> 00:46:40,453
You know, just in case.

648
00:46:41,788 --> 00:46:43,356
I don't want you falling down.

649
00:46:50,363 --> 00:46:51,798
Preacher called again.

650
00:46:51,831 --> 00:46:55,469
He keeps trying
to apologize to you, Mamie.

651
00:46:59,373 --> 00:47:00,641
Aunty Lizzie's coming up here.

652
00:47:00,675 --> 00:47:03,811
He has to stay behind
to finish working the fields

653
00:47:03,844 --> 00:47:05,780
and talk to the prosecutor.

654
00:47:16,791 --> 00:47:18,893
I keep asking myself...

655
00:47:22,430 --> 00:47:24,265
"Why is this happening?

656
00:47:28,636 --> 00:47:31,405
"Why did he take my child
from me?

657
00:47:38,513 --> 00:47:40,816
"What am I
supposed to do now?"

658
00:47:50,492 --> 00:47:53,361
Yeah. I have to say goodbye
to Mama.

659
00:48:06,908 --> 00:48:07,909
Mama.

660
00:48:33,169 --> 00:48:35,338
I'm the one who told him
to go down there.

661
00:48:38,341 --> 00:48:40,576
I wanted him to go down there.

662
00:48:45,848 --> 00:48:47,517
I told him to go down.

663
00:48:50,720 --> 00:48:53,422
I told him to go down there.

664
00:49:40,939 --> 00:49:43,408
All right. Get that.

665
00:50:07,333 --> 00:50:08,967
Oh, my God!

666
00:50:10,269 --> 00:50:12,570
My boy!

667
00:50:12,604 --> 00:50:16,407
My boy! My only child!

668
00:50:16,441 --> 00:50:18,776
My only boy!

669
00:50:20,846 --> 00:50:24,950
Oh, my Lord!
Get him out of that box!

670
00:50:26,319 --> 00:50:29,322
Get him out of the box!

671
00:50:29,356 --> 00:50:32,758
Get him out of the box!
He can't breathe!

672
00:50:34,059 --> 00:50:36,829
He can't breathe. My Lord!

673
00:50:38,931 --> 00:50:41,901
Oh, Lord, have mercy!

674
00:50:42,935 --> 00:50:44,271
Help me!

675
00:50:46,373 --> 00:50:49,174
Oh, my God!

676
00:50:51,143 --> 00:50:54,513
Oh, Lord, have mercy!

677
00:50:55,282 --> 00:50:58,417
Show me
what you want me to do.

678
00:50:58,450 --> 00:51:01,588
Oh, Lord, show me
what you want me to do

679
00:51:01,621 --> 00:51:04,257
and make me able to do it!

680
00:51:04,292 --> 00:51:06,092
My Lord!

681
00:51:17,371 --> 00:51:18,738
I need to prepare you.

682
00:51:23,977 --> 00:51:25,478
Remove the sheet.

683
00:51:35,221 --> 00:51:38,458
Oh, God.

684
00:51:51,639 --> 00:51:54,075
Everyone, leave us.

685
00:55:17,116 --> 00:55:18,485
How long
will it take you

686
00:55:18,518 --> 00:55:20,252
to turn the body over to us?

687
00:55:20,287 --> 00:55:21,521
Figure out the next step.

688
00:55:21,555 --> 00:55:23,122
Talk to the church.

689
00:55:23,155 --> 00:55:26,792
Gene, can you go back
to my place

690
00:55:26,825 --> 00:55:29,128
and bring back
Emmett's black suit?

691
00:55:29,161 --> 00:55:31,730
The one he wore
last Christmas.

692
00:55:31,764 --> 00:55:33,633
Mama can tell you
exactly where it is.

693
00:55:33,667 --> 00:55:35,569
And make sure
to get my black dress

694
00:55:35,602 --> 00:55:37,304
that Bo would approve of.

695
00:55:37,337 --> 00:55:39,038
And his matching tie.

696
00:55:40,806 --> 00:55:42,676
Emmett loved this suit.

697
00:55:42,708 --> 00:55:44,344
It's how he'd like to be seen.

698
00:55:46,111 --> 00:55:47,112
Seen?

699
00:55:48,448 --> 00:55:51,751
Mamie, Bo's in no kind of
shape to be seen by anybody.

700
00:55:51,785 --> 00:55:54,854
No, he's in just
the right shape.

701
00:55:54,888 --> 00:55:59,059
The whole world has to see
what happened to my son.

702
00:55:59,092 --> 00:56:02,663
Mrs. Bradley, can I
at least fix him up a bit?

703
00:56:02,697 --> 00:56:03,763
Just to make him more...

704
00:56:03,797 --> 00:56:06,132
No one's going to believe
what I just saw.

705
00:56:06,434 --> 00:56:07,267
No.

706
00:56:07,301 --> 00:56:10,103
They have to see it
for themselves.

707
00:56:38,132 --> 00:56:39,800
Ms. Bradley,
what would you like to say

708
00:56:39,834 --> 00:56:40,868
to the men who did this?

709
00:56:40,901 --> 00:56:42,471
What's that smell?

710
00:56:44,473 --> 00:56:48,277
That smell is my son's body.

711
00:56:48,310 --> 00:56:52,314
He came home to me
reeking of racial hatred.

712
00:56:52,347 --> 00:56:54,283
His face was bludgeoned.

713
00:56:54,316 --> 00:56:56,385
His teeth are gone.

714
00:56:56,418 --> 00:56:57,885
He was shot in the head.

715
00:56:58,754 --> 00:57:02,457
And now I want America
to bear witness.

716
00:57:06,528 --> 00:57:07,928
Come with me, please.

717
00:57:09,731 --> 00:57:10,766
Right here, Ms. Bradley.

718
00:57:10,798 --> 00:57:12,167
Ms. Bradley, right here.

719
00:57:12,200 --> 00:57:13,469
Do you have a
message for the perpetrators?

720
00:57:13,503 --> 00:57:15,505
Will there be
a service, Ms. Bradley?

721
00:57:18,741 --> 00:57:21,277
Gene, please come be with me.

00:58:11,961 --> 00:58:13,262

734
00:58:15,499 --> 00:58:16,767

00:58:19,969 --> 00:58:21,338
<i>I support her.</i>

738
00:58:21,372 --> 00:58:23,807
<i>It is my</i>

739
00:58:23,841 --> 00:58:25,309

740
00:58:25,342 --> 00:58:27,745

743
00:58:32,516 --> 00:58:33,484

746
00:58:37,522 --> 00:58:39,123

747
00:58:39,156 --> 00:58:41,158
<i>I won't rest</i>

748
00:58:41,191 --> 00:58:44,429

749
00:58:44,462 --> 00:58:45,797

Mamie...

754
00:59:35,448 --> 00:59:37,115
Aunty Lizzie.

755
00:59:40,386 --> 00:59:43,889
Simmy and Maurice stayed back
with their daddy.

756
00:59:43,923 --> 00:59:46,057
It was probably too much.

757
00:59:49,428 --> 00:59:50,596
I'm so sorry.

758
00:59:53,164 --> 00:59:57,102
When those men came, I tried.

759
00:59:58,839 --> 01:00:01,273
We all tried.

760
01:00:02,909 --> 01:00:04,444
I ain't going back, Mamie.

761
01:00:05,010 --> 01:00:07,314
I packed my stuff up,

762
01:00:07,347 --> 01:00:09,382
and I'm staying here for good.

763
01:00:10,283 --> 01:00:12,117
Preacher and the boys
will join me.

764
01:00:15,689 --> 01:00:17,056
I can't look, Mamie.

765
01:00:25,432 --> 01:00:26,433

My child is dead,

01:03:28,252 --> 01:03:30,388
and she is going to be fine.

793
01:03:32,991 --> 01:03:37,194
Carolyn Bryant
is going to be fine.

794
01:03:44,502 --> 01:03:46,137
You know,
to get a murder indictment

795
01:03:46,171 --> 01:03:48,907
on two White men
in Mississippi is not easy.

796
01:03:53,311 --> 01:03:56,748
You did that, Mamie.

797
01:04:01,653 --> 01:04:02,655
Now...

798
01:04:06,358 --> 01:04:07,927
Their defense...

799
01:04:10,296 --> 01:04:11,964
is going to try
to create doubt

800
01:04:11,997 --> 01:04:14,133
about the body being Emmett's.

801
01:04:14,166 --> 01:04:16,368
There's no body,
there's no murder conviction,

802
01:04:16,402 --> 01:04:19,939
and Bryant and Milam will only
face kidnapping charges.

803
01:04:25,511 --> 01:04:27,780
You know your child
better than anyone.

804
01:04:31,016 --> 01:04:32,852
You saw the body soon after.

805
01:04:35,688 --> 01:04:40,059
There is no testimony
like a mother's.

806
01:05:18,265 --> 01:05:19,733
Aren't we going
to your mama's tonight?

807
01:05:23,303 --> 01:05:25,506
I need to go to Mississippi
for the trial.

808
01:05:27,008 --> 01:05:30,444
I can testify that it was
Bo's body found in the river.

809
01:05:43,958 --> 01:05:44,926
When do you want us to go?

810
01:05:48,329 --> 01:05:50,264
Gene, I have to go without you.

811
01:05:50,299 --> 01:05:53,000
-What?
-Mr. Mooty has arranged for me
to meet some people

812
01:05:53,034 --> 01:05:54,402
-down there.
-If you're going
to Mississippi,

813
01:05:54,435 --> 01:05:55,736
-I'm going with you.
-Mr. Huff and Mr. Mooty

814
01:05:55,770 --> 01:05:57,104
don't think that's a good idea,

815
01:05:57,138 --> 01:05:58,973
-and I agree with them.
-I don't care what they think!

816
01:06:01,275 --> 01:06:02,311
They keep telling us

817
01:06:02,343 --> 01:06:03,644
what to do
and who you can talk to.

818
01:06:03,678 --> 01:06:06,381
And I go along with it
because I lost Bo too.

819
01:06:08,450 --> 01:06:09,852
I would do anything for him.

820
01:06:15,390 --> 01:06:16,525
You tell me, Mamie.

821
01:06:17,459 --> 01:06:19,962
How is risking your life
gonna help Bo?

822
01:06:29,938 --> 01:06:32,608
This is what they're writing
about me down there.

823
01:06:32,641 --> 01:06:34,977
They're making me out to be
some kind of jezebel.

824
01:06:35,010 --> 01:06:36,445
Two reporters called to ask

825
01:06:36,478 --> 01:06:38,814
about my ex-husbands
and about you.

826
01:06:39,948 --> 01:06:41,550
Mr. Huff was right.

827
01:06:41,583 --> 01:06:43,652
I'm on trial like the people
who killed Bo.

828
01:06:43,685 --> 01:06:46,588
Jurors will be watching me,
and reading these stories

829
01:06:46,622 --> 01:06:49,392
when they decide if the men
who murdered my son go free.

830
01:06:49,425 --> 01:06:51,794
I have to protect my image

831
01:06:52,896 --> 01:06:55,064
if it can help get justice
for Bo.

832
01:06:58,735 --> 01:07:00,837
I should be going with you,
Mamie.

833
01:07:00,870 --> 01:07:04,440
I need you to be there for me
in a different way right now.

834
01:07:09,346 --> 01:07:10,580
You're not gonna change
your mind?

835
01:07:13,082 --> 01:07:13,950
You know me well enough

836
01:07:13,983 --> 01:07:16,052
to answer that question
for yourself.

837
01:07:41,979 --> 01:07:44,281
<i>Not since</i>
<i>the Tallahatchie River flooded</i>

838
01:07:44,316 --> 01:07:45,749
<i>some 20 or 30 years ago</i>

839
01:07:45,783 --> 01:07:49,820
<i>that the townspeople had more</i>
<i>to talk about than this trial.</i>

840
01:07:49,853 --> 01:07:53,857
<i>I can't understand</i>
<i>how a civilized mother</i>

841
01:07:53,891 --> 01:07:58,829
<i>could put a dead body of</i>
<i>her child on public display!</i>

842
01:07:58,862 --> 01:08:03,200
<i>I think that this is</i>
<i>a result of the NAACP</i>

843
01:08:03,233 --> 01:08:04,835
<i>trying to make</i>
<i>something big...</i>

844
01:08:04,868 --> 01:08:06,770
<i>...out of just an ordinary</i>

845
01:08:06,804 --> 01:08:09,139
<i>criminal affair</i>
<i>in Mississippi.</i>

846
01:08:19,149 --> 01:08:20,185
You're not going.

847
01:08:21,152 --> 01:08:22,886
Mamie, it's too dangerous

848
01:08:22,921 --> 01:08:24,889
for you to go down
to Mississippi right now.

849
01:08:25,790 --> 01:08:27,826
I heard the sheriffs
are passing along

850
01:08:27,859 --> 01:08:29,861
Negro license plate numbers
to the Klan members.

851
01:08:29,894 --> 01:08:32,595
Mr. Huff and Mr. Mooty
already have plans

852
01:08:32,630 --> 01:08:34,300
for me to safely travel.

853
01:08:34,332 --> 01:08:36,234
I'll fly to Memphis first.

854
01:08:36,267 --> 01:08:38,470
And then,
some people from the NAACP

855
01:08:38,502 --> 01:08:40,138
are going to drive me
to Clarksdale.

856
01:08:40,171 --> 01:08:42,841
And then, their field
secretary will pick me up

857
01:08:42,874 --> 01:08:44,876
and drive me
to someone's house

858
01:08:44,908 --> 01:08:46,544
in a place called Mound Bayou.

859
01:08:46,578 --> 01:08:48,513
You want to go alone?

860
01:08:48,546 --> 01:08:51,417
I'm trying to be strong
for Bo.

861
01:08:51,451 --> 01:08:53,285
What are you gonna do
down there?

862
01:08:54,321 --> 01:08:55,955
Something you can't.

863
01:09:02,028 --> 01:09:05,698
If my testimony can help
in any way,

864
01:09:06,332 --> 01:09:07,566
I have to go.

865
01:09:08,600 --> 01:09:11,170
I have to be there
for my child.

866
01:09:13,372 --> 01:09:15,107
And what about my child?

867
01:09:23,282 --> 01:09:24,550
I'm goin' with ya.

868
01:09:26,852 --> 01:09:29,087
I know this is not
what we agreed on,

869
01:09:29,121 --> 01:09:31,591
but it's better for me
to go down there with her

870
01:09:31,625 --> 01:09:33,225
than for her
to be there alone.

871
01:09:38,765 --> 01:09:41,734
You don't have to worry.
I'mma be there with you.

872

873
01:09:45,639 --> 01:09:48,341

01:10:56,912 --> 01:10:58,714
It's a all-Negro town.

885
01:11:00,182 --> 01:11:03,719
We run all our own businesses
and all our own schools.

886
01:11:04,853 --> 01:11:06,389
All the Negroes
attending the trial

887
01:11:06,422 --> 01:11:08,391
will be staying here.

888
01:11:08,424 --> 01:11:09,958
This is the safest place
for 'em.

889
01:11:12,495 --> 01:11:14,029
Dr. Howard
created the Regional Council

890
01:11:14,062 --> 01:11:16,366
for Negro Leadership
here in Mound Bayou.

891
01:11:16,399 --> 01:11:19,801
He's also the chief surgeon
at the Taborian Hospital.

892
01:11:19,835 --> 01:11:21,203
He built
a lot of businesses here,

893
01:11:21,236 --> 01:11:23,839
including a really successful
life insurance company.

894
01:11:24,507 --> 01:11:26,442
That's how I met him.

895
01:11:26,476 --> 01:11:28,143
He gave me my first job.

896
01:11:29,345 --> 01:11:34,116
<i>♪ Going home one day</i>
<i>and tell my story ♪</i>

897
01:11:34,149 --> 01:11:39,088

902
01:11:59,842 --> 01:12:02,613
Thank you
for driving us, Mr. Evers.

903
01:12:02,646 --> 01:12:05,014
Please, ma'am, call me Medgar.

904
01:12:07,250 --> 01:12:08,352
Mrs. Bradley?

905
01:12:10,019 --> 01:12:12,989
Those pictures of your son
in the magazine...

906
01:12:15,459 --> 01:12:16,827
changed people's lives.

907
01:12:18,597 --> 01:12:21,932
My wife,
she's here with our son.

908
01:12:23,734 --> 01:12:24,935
And we're both helping
with some of

909
01:12:24,969 --> 01:12:26,937
the investigation work
for the trial.

910
01:12:28,739 --> 01:12:30,040
Now, I promise you...

911
01:12:32,109 --> 01:12:33,345
we are doing everything we can

912
01:12:33,378 --> 01:12:35,513
to get some sort of justice
for Emmett Till.

913
01:12:49,860 --> 01:12:52,863
We call Dr. Howard's house
"The Black Command Center."

914
01:12:52,896 --> 01:12:54,566
Reporters
from all the colored press

915
01:12:54,599 --> 01:12:56,334
work out of here
during the trial.

916
01:12:56,368 --> 01:12:57,303
They also help with some of

917
01:12:57,336 --> 01:12:58,937
the investigation work
for the trial.

918
01:12:58,970 --> 01:13:01,674
And what kind of investigation
y'all are gonna be doing?

919
01:13:01,707 --> 01:13:02,807
We're looking
for witnesses

920
01:13:02,841 --> 01:13:04,644
who'll be brave enough
to come to trial.

921
01:13:07,846 --> 01:13:10,650
- Right here.
- Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

922
01:13:10,683 --> 01:13:12,050
This here is,
uh, Ms. Murdock.

923
01:13:12,083 --> 01:13:14,019
Ms. Bradley.

924
01:13:14,052 --> 01:13:15,854
Ms. Turner. Mr. Booker.

925
01:13:15,887 --> 01:13:17,956
Pleased to meet you, ma'am.

926
01:13:17,989 --> 01:13:19,692
This here
is my son, Darrell.

927
01:13:19,725 --> 01:13:21,226
And my wife, Myrlie.

928
01:13:21,259 --> 01:13:24,029
It's an honor to meet you,
Mrs. Bradley.

929
01:13:24,530 --> 01:13:25,464
Mr. Carthan.

930
01:13:27,466 --> 01:13:28,434
Hey, you don't mind?

931
01:13:29,100 --> 01:13:31,269
Over here is Amzie Moore.

932
01:13:31,304 --> 01:13:32,305
He's the president

933
01:13:32,338 --> 01:13:34,774
of the Regional Council
for Negro Leadership.

934
01:13:34,806 --> 01:13:37,743
And I am Dr. Theodore Howard.

935
01:13:37,777 --> 01:13:41,315
Welcome to Mound Bayou,
Mrs. Bradley.

936
01:13:42,783 --> 01:13:45,017
- Mr. Carthan.
- Sir.

937
01:13:45,051 --> 01:13:49,088
Let me just say that
we are so...

938
01:13:50,256 --> 01:13:52,858
honored to have you
here with us.

939
01:13:53,760 --> 01:13:54,795
Thank you.

940
01:13:54,827 --> 01:13:56,028
Thank you.

941
01:13:57,597 --> 01:13:59,832
Now, what are you drinking?

942
01:14:03,135 --> 01:14:04,538
Not a lot of people
would use

943
01:14:04,571 --> 01:14:06,406
their money the way you do.

944
01:14:06,440 --> 01:14:08,308
Well, we need money

945
01:14:08,342 --> 01:14:11,077
for the freedom fight
that we're in now.

946
01:14:12,446 --> 01:14:13,547
We need money...

947
01:14:14,847 --> 01:14:17,883
to protect Negroes who are...

948
01:14:18,618 --> 01:14:20,053
simply trying to exercise

949
01:14:20,087 --> 01:14:21,988
their constitutional right
to vote,

950
01:14:22,022 --> 01:14:24,826
to speak at trial.

951
01:14:28,161 --> 01:14:30,931
I had a really good life
in Chicago

952
01:14:30,964 --> 01:14:32,567
before they took Bo from me.

953
01:14:35,102 --> 01:14:36,637
I never thought much
about the world

954
01:14:36,671 --> 01:14:38,539
outside of just me and Bo,

955
01:14:39,774 --> 01:14:41,975
my job, my family, my friends.

956
01:14:46,213 --> 01:14:48,081
Mrs. Bradley,
have you thought about, um,

957
01:14:48,115 --> 01:14:49,883
what you're going to do
after the trial?

958
01:14:51,519 --> 01:14:53,053
After the trial?

959
01:14:53,086 --> 01:14:54,822
I'm sure you've considered

960
01:14:54,856 --> 01:14:57,090
continuing your work
with the NAACP.

961
01:14:57,124 --> 01:15:00,060
Or with our Regional Council,
right here.

962
01:15:00,093 --> 01:15:04,566
Your story... speaks
to the urgency of Negro rights

963
01:15:04,600 --> 01:15:08,537
more than anything
this country has ever heard.

964
01:15:08,570 --> 01:15:09,971
I've been sharing my story

965
01:15:10,004 --> 01:15:14,443
because I want those two men
to pay for what they did.

966
01:15:14,476 --> 01:15:16,177
And I do too.

967
01:15:16,210 --> 01:15:19,815
But I do not believe
that justice will be rendered

968
01:15:19,848 --> 01:15:23,485
by 12 jurors
who look exactly like

969
01:15:23,519 --> 01:15:27,255
the two so-called men
who are on trial.

970
01:15:30,726 --> 01:15:34,061
And our fight, and your story,

971
01:15:35,497 --> 01:15:41,403
must continue and will not end
with one single verdict.

972
01:15:46,609 --> 01:15:48,645
Mrs. Bradley.

973
01:17:02,953 --> 01:17:04,322
That's the mother!

974
01:17:05,022 --> 01:17:06,424
Come on, get out the way.

975
01:17:06,458 --> 01:17:08,560
Mrs. Bradley,
why are you here?

976
01:17:08,593 --> 01:17:10,194
- Ms. Bradley.
- Ms. Bradley!

977
01:17:10,227 --> 01:17:11,563
Come on,
say something!

978
01:17:11,596 --> 01:17:13,163
- Will you testify?
- Come on!

979
01:17:13,197 --> 01:17:14,399
- You gotta give us something.
- Mrs. Bradley.

980
01:17:14,432 --> 01:17:15,667
Mamie?

981
01:17:15,700 --> 01:17:16,635
It's all right, Daddy.

982
01:17:19,471 --> 01:17:21,306
I am here to confirm...

983
01:17:24,809 --> 01:17:27,379
What's wrong with you?

984
01:17:28,112 --> 01:17:29,581
Let's get inside.
Come on.

985
01:17:42,427 --> 01:17:43,428
No.

986
01:17:57,643 --> 01:17:59,077
How dare you?

987
01:18:04,115 --> 01:18:05,384
It's all right, Mamie.

988
01:18:16,329 --> 01:18:17,330
Go on!

989
01:18:37,050 --> 01:18:38,250
Amzie.

990
01:18:42,188 --> 01:18:44,925
Mrs. Bradley, I'd like you
to meet Ruby Hurley.

991
01:18:44,958 --> 01:18:46,426
She's also a part of our team.

992
01:18:46,460 --> 01:18:48,996
It's truly an honor
to meet you, Mrs. Bradley.

993
01:18:49,029 --> 01:18:51,263
Thank you.

994
01:18:51,297 --> 01:18:52,666
Thank you,
it's a pleasure to meet you.

995
01:18:52,699 --> 01:18:53,700
My pleasure.

996
01:18:53,734 --> 01:18:55,102
- We'll be with you, ma'am.
- Thank you.

997
01:18:55,134 --> 01:18:56,302
- Right this way.
- Thank you.

998
01:18:56,336 --> 01:18:58,237
- Thank you.
- You're welcome, of course.

999
01:19:01,742 --> 01:19:02,676
Hello, niggers!

1000
01:19:03,977 --> 01:19:06,013
I got about eight seats
down there

1001
01:19:06,046 --> 01:19:07,882
for you
and your nigger reporters.

1002
01:19:08,683 --> 01:19:09,817
Rest of you can stand.

1003
01:19:10,818 --> 01:19:11,753
You Mamie?

1004
01:19:14,722 --> 01:19:15,923
What's this?

1005
01:19:15,957 --> 01:19:18,291
That's a damn summons.

1006
01:19:18,326 --> 01:19:20,928
I thought you uppity niggers
could read.

1007
01:19:20,962 --> 01:19:23,731
Mamie?
Don't let him get to you.

1008
01:19:23,765 --> 01:19:24,732
Come on, now.

1009
01:19:25,767 --> 01:19:27,468
Ah, there's James Hicks.

1010
01:19:27,502 --> 01:19:29,671
We can go and sit with him
and the other reporters.

1011
01:19:30,772 --> 01:19:32,840
Have you spoke
with the prosecution team?

1012
01:19:32,874 --> 01:19:35,076
Only once before,
on the phone.

1013
01:19:35,109 --> 01:19:36,477
It was brief.

1014
01:19:36,511 --> 01:19:39,113
Hopefully, this won't take
too long. Get together later.

1015
01:19:39,147 --> 01:19:41,015
- Mr. Smith.
- Yes.

1016
01:19:41,049 --> 01:19:42,684
Mrs. Bradley.

1017
01:19:42,717 --> 01:19:43,651
Mamie.

1018
01:19:49,058 --> 01:19:50,325
- Hmm.
- Come on.

1019
01:19:52,861 --> 01:19:54,563
All rise!

1020
01:19:54,596 --> 01:19:58,434
The Honorable Judge
Curtis Swango presiding.

1021
01:20:00,936 --> 01:20:01,970
Please be seated.

1022
01:20:05,941 --> 01:20:07,275
There will be
no pictures taken

1023
01:20:07,309 --> 01:20:09,378
during court proceedings.

1024
01:20:09,411 --> 01:20:14,516
Bailiff, have the jurors
come in and take a seat.

1025
01:20:14,550 --> 01:20:19,253
Also, get me a Coke sometime.
All right?

1026
01:20:37,140 --> 01:20:39,109
Your Honor,
the State has just learned

1027
01:20:39,142 --> 01:20:41,276
of the existence
of another witness

1028
01:20:41,311 --> 01:20:43,278
to the murder of Emmett Till.

1029
01:20:43,313 --> 01:20:45,181
The State requests a recess

1030
01:20:45,215 --> 01:20:46,983
in order to gather
the witness.

1031
01:20:48,384 --> 01:20:49,719
Objection, Your Honor!

1032
01:20:49,753 --> 01:20:52,956
Your Honor, this will only
delay proceedings. Come on.

1033
01:20:52,989 --> 01:20:54,724
Hmm.

1034
01:20:54,758 --> 01:20:56,025
Objection overruled.

1035
01:20:56,059 --> 01:20:58,695
It seems like
a reasonable request.

1036
01:20:59,496 --> 01:21:01,296
Thank you, Your Honor.

1037
01:21:01,331 --> 01:21:02,866
I'll give you
till tomorrow morning

1038
01:21:02,899 --> 01:21:05,034
to find your witness.

1039
01:21:09,539 --> 01:21:11,642
The court will have a recess.

1040
01:21:11,675 --> 01:21:15,212
We will resume at 9:00 a.m.
tomorrow morning.

1041
01:21:16,947 --> 01:21:18,349
Court dismissed!

1042
01:21:25,790 --> 01:21:28,793
Medgar,
take me to Money.

1043
01:21:31,228 --> 01:21:33,664
All right. Okay.

1044
01:22:26,685 --> 01:22:28,553
That's where
it happened?

1045
01:22:30,889 --> 01:22:31,923
Yes, ma'am.

1046
01:22:33,559 --> 01:22:36,929
The shop's been closed
since the day of the arrest.

1047
01:22:41,200 --> 01:22:42,869
Most of the patrons
were Negroes.

1048
01:25:35,578 --> 01:25:38,281
Your mama tells me
you're all moving up north

1049
01:25:38,314 --> 01:25:39,215
after the trial.

1050
01:25:40,884 --> 01:25:43,186
Daddy says
it's not gonna be safe.

1051
01:25:51,628 --> 01:25:53,163
Thank you.

1052
01:26:01,305 --> 01:26:02,640
We're sorry, ma'am.

1053
01:26:08,079 --> 01:26:09,013
We're so sorry.

1054
01:26:13,984 --> 01:26:16,854
You all didn't know
this was going to happen.

1055
01:26:19,623 --> 01:26:20,891
Come here.

1056
01:26:27,998 --> 01:26:29,166
It's okay.

1057
01:26:30,569 --> 01:26:31,836
Hmm.

1058
01:26:41,279 --> 01:26:42,881
Where's your daddy?

1059
01:27:10,175 --> 01:27:11,176
You gonna sit?

1060
01:27:15,581 --> 01:27:16,982
I saw your boys.

1061
01:27:20,018 --> 01:27:22,121
Was probably hard for them
to see you.

1062
01:27:28,194 --> 01:27:29,195
You gonna sit?

1063
01:27:41,707 --> 01:27:43,809
Did you have a shotgun
in your house

1064
01:27:43,843 --> 01:27:45,077
the night they took Bo?

1065
01:27:48,348 --> 01:27:52,653
I've been wanting to explain
to you what happened.

1066
01:27:52,685 --> 01:27:54,253
You told me that part.

1067
01:27:54,287 --> 01:27:55,855
White men came knocking

1068
01:27:55,888 --> 01:27:57,391
-on my door, Mamie.
-I know that part.

1069
01:27:57,424 --> 01:27:58,358
They had a gun.

1070
01:27:58,392 --> 01:28:00,026
You have a gun!

1071
01:28:03,163 --> 01:28:06,601
How long did you
stand there doing nothing

1072
01:28:06,634 --> 01:28:08,336
while they took my child?

1073
01:28:08,369 --> 01:28:09,169
If I'd have shot them,

1074
01:28:09,203 --> 01:28:11,939
they would've killed
all of mine!

1075
01:28:11,972 --> 01:28:14,975
It'd be hunting season
for every Negro in Money!

1076
01:28:18,446 --> 01:28:19,913
We have to live here, Mamie.

1077
01:28:21,649 --> 01:28:23,050
Bobo was with my boys

1078
01:28:23,083 --> 01:28:25,018
when he went to talk
to some White woman.

1079
01:28:25,052 --> 01:28:26,454
You understand
what that mean down here?

1080
01:28:26,487 --> 01:28:29,289
Don't you dare blame Bo
for what happened to him!

1081
01:28:29,324 --> 01:28:31,858
I don't blame him!

1082
01:28:42,903 --> 01:28:44,906
I had to make a choice
that night.

1083
01:28:45,708 --> 01:28:48,009
In a moment, I had to choose.

1084
01:28:50,446 --> 01:28:52,880
And you chose yours over mine.

1085
01:28:52,914 --> 01:28:57,051
It wasn't just two White men
with a gun that night.

1086
01:28:58,354 --> 01:29:02,123
It was every White man
who'd rather see a Negro dead

1087
01:29:02,156 --> 01:29:04,859
than breathin'
the same air as him.

1088
01:29:04,892 --> 01:29:07,795
Every sheriff,
every judge in this town

1089
01:29:07,829 --> 01:29:10,031
was at my door that night.

1090
01:29:10,064 --> 01:29:14,370
I was facin' a lot more
than two men with a gun.

1091
01:29:25,147 --> 01:29:27,350
He was my only child.

1092
01:29:38,728 --> 01:29:39,928
I know.

1093
01:29:57,279 --> 01:29:59,449
That's why you're moving
after the trial...

1094
01:30:01,651 --> 01:30:03,319
because you're going
to testify?

1095
01:30:07,223 --> 01:30:11,261
No Negro in Money has ever
spoken against a White man...

1096
01:30:13,296 --> 01:30:14,498
and lived.

1097
01:30:56,675 --> 01:30:57,809
That's the house.

1098
01:30:57,843 --> 01:31:00,044
If he runs,
make sure he doesn't get away.

1099
01:31:00,077 --> 01:31:01,480
Amzie, right here.

1100
01:31:10,287 --> 01:31:11,556
Hey! Not so loud.

1101
01:31:11,590 --> 01:31:12,657
You'll scare him off.

1102
01:31:16,795 --> 01:31:18,195
We told you
to leave Willie alone.

1103
01:31:18,229 --> 01:31:20,064
Let's have
a conversation inside.

1104
01:31:20,097 --> 01:31:21,867
He didn't see nothin'!

1105
01:31:21,899 --> 01:31:24,135
Come out or we're comin' in.

1106
01:31:24,168 --> 01:31:26,137
You gonna get the boy killed.

1107
01:31:29,776 --> 01:31:31,977
Hey! Hey!

1108
01:31:36,883 --> 01:31:38,150
Come on, come on!

1109
01:32:08,146 --> 01:32:09,248
We need
to keep him here

1110
01:32:09,282 --> 01:32:10,818
just in case
he runs off again.

1111
01:32:10,851 --> 01:32:13,186
I ain't gonna run.

1112
01:32:13,219 --> 01:32:15,389
I'll tell 'em
what I saw that night.

1113
01:32:15,422 --> 01:32:17,357
And what about
your grandparents?

1114
01:32:18,157 --> 01:32:19,192
Would you say that they heard

1115
01:32:19,225 --> 01:32:20,594
some sounds
comin' out the barn too?

1116
01:32:20,627 --> 01:32:23,831
No, no, I promised them I was
gonna keep them out of it.

1117
01:32:23,864 --> 01:32:25,332
We're gonna finance security

1118
01:32:25,365 --> 01:32:27,734
for your entire family
after they testify,

1119
01:32:27,768 --> 01:32:29,235
so don't you worry none, son.

1120
01:32:30,471 --> 01:32:31,472
All right?

1121
01:32:32,406 --> 01:32:34,307
<i>His name is Willie Reed,</i>

1122
01:32:34,341 --> 01:32:36,577
<i>a field hand for</i>
<i>J.W.'s brother.</i>

1123
01:32:37,778 --> 01:32:39,680
He's a witness
who lives on the farm

1124
01:32:39,713 --> 01:32:41,515
not too far from where he saw

1125
01:32:41,548 --> 01:32:43,383
J.W. and Roy Bryant

1126
01:32:43,417 --> 01:32:45,586
and several other men
take Emmett.

1127
01:32:45,619 --> 01:32:48,489
Now, Willie's family
also works for the Milams,

1128
01:32:48,522 --> 01:32:51,058
so they also heard
a lot of noise that night.

1129
01:32:51,091 --> 01:32:53,060
There were other men?

1130
01:32:54,929 --> 01:32:57,297
It pains me
to have to tell you this,

1131
01:32:57,332 --> 01:33:00,568
but there were some colored
men that were involved.

1132
01:33:03,972 --> 01:33:06,341
Colored men did this
to my boy?

1133
01:33:06,374 --> 01:33:08,208
Well, they work
for Milam and Bryant,

1134
01:33:08,242 --> 01:33:10,678
and found out Bryant
had 'em paid to skip town.

1135
01:33:11,613 --> 01:33:12,614
What...

1136
01:33:16,818 --> 01:33:19,319
I can fix that for you.

1137
01:33:27,562 --> 01:33:30,565
It means a lot,

1138
01:33:32,033 --> 01:33:33,335
what you're doing.

1139
01:33:38,139 --> 01:33:39,542
Thank you.

1140
01:33:42,511 --> 01:33:43,646
Thank you.

1141
01:33:44,747 --> 01:33:46,080
It's the right thing to do.

1142
01:33:56,124 --> 01:33:57,693
Go ahead
and put these on.

1143
01:34:28,658 --> 01:34:31,061
It's difficult for me
to fall asleep

1144
01:34:31,093 --> 01:34:32,629
before Medgar gets home.

1145
01:34:36,600 --> 01:34:37,801
I've wanted to meet you.

1146
01:34:39,168 --> 01:34:41,303
What you did
with those photographs...

1147
01:34:41,338 --> 01:34:44,474
What you're doin' now,
it's, um...

1148
01:34:44,507 --> 01:34:47,209
It's nothing a mother
wouldn't do for her child.

1149
01:34:49,746 --> 01:34:50,747
Hmm.

1150
01:34:52,082 --> 01:34:53,684
How old's your son?

1151
01:34:53,718 --> 01:34:56,319
Two.

1152
01:34:58,522 --> 01:35:00,190
We almost didn't take him
and his sister

1153
01:35:00,223 --> 01:35:02,158
with us from Jackson, but I...

1154
01:35:03,561 --> 01:35:05,096
I'm trying to keep
the family together

1155
01:35:05,128 --> 01:35:06,831
as much as possible
these days.

1156
01:35:10,468 --> 01:35:12,103
I'm sure you heard
about what happened

1157
01:35:12,135 --> 01:35:14,204
to our friends Lamar Smith
and Reverend Lee.

1158
01:35:14,237 --> 01:35:16,440
Yes, I have.

1159
01:35:17,541 --> 01:35:19,410
Medgar and I worked closely
with 'em.

1160
01:35:20,878 --> 01:35:23,080
We did good work.

1161
01:35:23,114 --> 01:35:24,515
We got a lot of Negroes
registered to vote

1162
01:35:24,548 --> 01:35:26,617
for the first time
in Mississippi,

1163
01:35:27,918 --> 01:35:30,888
and that created the biggest
targets on our backs.

1164
01:35:40,365 --> 01:35:42,901
I, um...

1165
01:35:45,871 --> 01:35:49,240
I believe in the work
we're doin' for our people.

1166
01:35:50,142 --> 01:35:51,376
I do.

1167
01:35:54,346 --> 01:35:56,715
But I don't want my children
to have to live in fear.

1168
01:35:58,950 --> 01:36:00,118
I have enough fear
for all of us

1169
01:36:00,152 --> 01:36:02,186
every time I wait for Medgar
to get home.

1170
01:36:06,992 --> 01:36:08,560
Emmett just wanted
to go on vacation

1171
01:36:08,593 --> 01:36:10,696
and have fun with his cousins.

1172
01:36:12,531 --> 01:36:15,266
He never thought
anything would happen to him.

1173
01:36:16,369 --> 01:36:22,307
He knew how different
things were down here,

1174
01:36:22,341 --> 01:36:26,879
but I never raised him
to have any fear growing up.

1175
01:36:29,214 --> 01:36:31,818
I wanted him to be a boy.

1176
01:36:31,851 --> 01:36:34,787
And to not have his childhood
taken away from him.

1177
01:36:37,824 --> 01:36:39,592
But it happened anyway.

1178
01:37:00,047 --> 01:37:04,317
We do the best we can.

1179
01:37:33,881 --> 01:37:34,948
Do you know Mr. Bryant?

1180
01:37:39,020 --> 01:37:40,655
He owns
the meat market.

1181
01:37:40,688 --> 01:37:41,623
Hmm.

1182
01:37:41,656 --> 01:37:43,992
Then you know Mr. Milam,
do ya?

1183
01:37:47,028 --> 01:37:48,363
Not by name.

1184
01:37:49,998 --> 01:37:51,733
But I know him.

1185
01:37:51,766 --> 01:37:52,934
How do you know him?

1186
01:37:55,570 --> 01:37:57,405
He showed up
at my door,

1187
01:37:58,807 --> 01:38:00,909
standing there
with a flashlight in one hand

1188
01:38:00,942 --> 01:38:02,343
and a pistol in the other.

1189
01:38:04,512 --> 01:38:06,313
And what happened next?

1190
01:38:25,000 --> 01:38:27,870
He held my family at gunpoint.

1191
01:38:30,172 --> 01:38:33,409
Then he dragged my nephew
from my home and drove off.

1192
01:38:33,442 --> 01:38:35,144
Sambo!

1193
01:38:38,047 --> 01:38:40,983
And would you

1194
01:38:41,016 --> 01:38:45,588
Would you recognize Mr. Milam
were you to see him again?

1195
01:38:57,066 --> 01:38:58,067
Yes, sir.

1196
01:39:01,938 --> 01:39:03,573
I would.

1197
01:39:15,886 --> 01:39:17,320
There he is.

1198
01:39:22,626 --> 01:39:24,362
The State rests.

1199
01:39:26,730 --> 01:39:28,498
The witness
can leave now.

1200
01:39:30,433 --> 01:39:32,168
The court will have a recess.

1201
01:39:59,096 --> 01:40:00,598
What did you think you heard?

1202
01:40:03,801 --> 01:40:06,837
I heard loud hollering
and licks

1203
01:40:08,039 --> 01:40:09,140
comin' from that shed.

1204
01:40:10,441 --> 01:40:11,742
Sounded like a boy.

1205
01:40:13,511 --> 01:40:14,712
I saw, uh...

1206
01:40:17,281 --> 01:40:18,549
J.W. Milam.

1207
01:40:19,850 --> 01:40:22,721
Saw a green truck
with a white top.

1208
01:40:25,257 --> 01:40:26,458
As they drove off,

1209
01:40:26,491 --> 01:40:30,195
there was, uh.
two White men in the cab

1210
01:40:30,228 --> 01:40:31,930
and three colored men
in the back.

1211
01:40:33,532 --> 01:40:35,435
They was all sitting
next to a body.

1212
01:40:35,467 --> 01:40:37,169
Are you sure
that's what you heard?

1213
01:40:37,202 --> 01:40:38,337
Yes, sir.

1214
01:40:38,371 --> 01:40:40,172
Huh. If that's what you heard,

1215
01:40:40,205 --> 01:40:43,475
why not yell out,
or call "Help"?

1216
01:40:47,546 --> 01:40:48,747
I...

1217
01:40:52,017 --> 01:40:53,386
I...

1218
01:40:53,419 --> 01:40:54,619
I couldn't.

1219
01:40:55,554 --> 01:40:56,922
No further questions.

1220
01:41:08,534 --> 01:41:09,736
You can leave now.

1221
01:41:27,620 --> 01:41:29,922
Did you certify
that the body found

1222
01:41:29,956 --> 01:41:31,290
was Emmett Till?

1223
01:41:31,324 --> 01:41:32,892
No, I did not.

1224
01:41:32,925 --> 01:41:35,328
I just said
it was a dead body.

1225
01:41:35,362 --> 01:41:38,798
You couldn't even tell if
the body was White or Black.

1226
01:41:38,831 --> 01:41:40,166
Thank you, Sheriff Strider.

1227
01:41:40,199 --> 01:41:41,567
You are excused.

1228
01:41:44,772 --> 01:41:46,006
You want my honest opinion?

1229
01:41:46,040 --> 01:41:48,542
I think the boy's mammy
and the NAACP

1230
01:41:48,575 --> 01:41:51,111
plotted this whole thing.

1231
01:41:51,145 --> 01:41:52,946
Thank you, Sheriff Strider.

1232
01:41:54,548 --> 01:41:56,283
That boy's
still alive somewhere.

1233
01:42:38,427 --> 01:42:39,694
Mamie...

1234
01:42:42,565 --> 01:42:44,533
Did you have a son who,
in his lifetime,

1235
01:42:44,567 --> 01:42:46,668
was known as Emmett Till?

1236
01:42:48,136 --> 01:42:49,337
Yes, sir.

1237
01:42:49,371 --> 01:42:51,206
How old was he?

1238
01:42:51,239 --> 01:42:53,141
Fourteen years of age.

1239
01:42:53,174 --> 01:42:55,043
Is his father
living today?

1240
01:42:55,578 --> 01:42:56,744
No, sir.

1241
01:42:56,778 --> 01:42:59,047
He died in service.

1242
01:42:59,080 --> 01:43:00,748
Oh.
Uh, when your husband,

1243
01:43:00,782 --> 01:43:03,385
the father of Emmett Till,
was killed overseas,

1244
01:43:03,419 --> 01:43:05,954
were his belongings
sent to you?

1245
01:43:05,987 --> 01:43:07,056
Yes, sir.

1246
01:43:08,657 --> 01:43:10,192
I now hand you

1247
01:43:11,394 --> 01:43:14,431
a ring
that has engraved on it,

1248
01:43:14,464 --> 01:43:18,602
May 25th, 1943,

1249
01:43:18,634 --> 01:43:20,102
with the large initials L.T.

1250
01:43:20,136 --> 01:43:22,338
Was that among the items
that were sent to you?

1251
01:43:23,239 --> 01:43:24,273
Yes, sir.

1252
01:43:25,442 --> 01:43:26,642
And is that the ring

1253
01:43:26,675 --> 01:43:29,111
that Emmett came down here
to Mississippi with?

1254
01:43:30,112 --> 01:43:31,180
Yes, sir.

1255
01:43:32,748 --> 01:43:36,785
Mamie, I wish
you would state to the court,

1256
01:43:37,487 --> 01:43:38,854
and to the jury,

1257
01:43:38,888 --> 01:43:41,190
whether you could identify
the body

1258
01:43:41,223 --> 01:43:43,926
that you saw down there
in the funeral home

1259
01:43:43,959 --> 01:43:46,228
as that of your son,
Emmett Till.

1260
01:43:47,464 --> 01:43:48,732
I could.

1261
01:43:55,573 --> 01:43:58,909
It's hard to describe
what a mother knows.

1262
01:44:00,744 --> 01:44:01,978
Please.

1263
01:44:08,285 --> 01:44:11,355
The first thing I noticed
when I became a mother

1264
01:44:12,022 --> 01:44:14,458
was that my hands were busy.

1265
01:44:14,492 --> 01:44:16,726
All the time.

1266
01:44:16,760 --> 01:44:20,431
Rocking, carrying, swaying,
always full.

1267
01:44:20,864 --> 01:44:22,533
One hand for him,

1268
01:44:22,567 --> 01:44:24,768
and one hand
for what he needed.

1269
01:44:26,036 --> 01:44:28,171
When it came time
to place him down

1270
01:44:28,205 --> 01:44:30,442
so he could make
his own way around,

1271
01:44:31,577 --> 01:44:33,445
I touched every inch of him.

1272
01:44:34,145 --> 01:44:36,214
Every bend.

1273
01:44:36,247 --> 01:44:40,419
My hand knew him
with my eyes closed.

1274
01:44:40,452 --> 01:44:41,719
Just like I'd know
his laughter

1275
01:44:41,752 --> 01:44:43,221
in a crowded room.

1276
01:44:44,356 --> 01:44:48,159
It's the same thing
when you know all of someone.

1277
01:45:00,871 --> 01:45:04,809
I started by laying my hands
on a foot.

1278
01:45:06,478 --> 01:45:07,979
And then

1279
01:45:09,146 --> 01:45:10,782
found his knees.

1280
01:45:12,985 --> 01:45:15,087
I remembered him...

1281
01:45:16,989 --> 01:45:20,993
as my fingers
traced his hairline,

1282
01:45:22,227 --> 01:45:26,432
and bumped over the crease
of his eyelid.

1283
01:45:28,767 --> 01:45:31,270
He was spoiled and puffed,

1284
01:45:32,505 --> 01:45:33,939
but these were the same parts

1285
01:45:33,972 --> 01:45:36,108
of a boy I'd nurtured
and loved.

1286
01:45:37,142 --> 01:45:40,012
Nothing and no one
could hide him from me.

1287
01:45:42,281 --> 01:45:43,849
A mother knows.

1288
01:45:45,317 --> 01:45:47,019
Your mother would know.

1289
01:45:48,120 --> 01:45:48,954
And I knew.

1290
01:45:48,987 --> 01:45:54,060
I knew this was my boy.
Emmett Till.

1291
01:45:54,728 --> 01:45:56,363
Beyond any doubt.

1292
01:45:59,132 --> 01:46:01,100
Thank you. Uh...

1293
01:46:02,603 --> 01:46:05,038
Thank you, Mrs. Bradley.

1294
01:46:05,071 --> 01:46:07,907
I believe that's all any of us
would ever need to hear.

1295
01:46:12,513 --> 01:46:13,614
Mamie?

1296
01:46:13,647 --> 01:46:14,682
Do you happen to remember

1297
01:46:14,715 --> 01:46:16,684
the date
Emmett Till's father died?

1298
01:46:16,717 --> 01:46:20,219
Yes, sir.
July the 2nd, 1945.

1299
01:46:20,253 --> 01:46:21,722
Where was he
when he died?

1300
01:46:21,755 --> 01:46:23,089
In Europe.

1301
01:46:24,190 --> 01:46:26,826
Did you have an insurance
policy on Emmett Till?

1302
01:46:27,594 --> 01:46:28,762
Um...

1303
01:46:28,796 --> 01:46:30,531
Yes, sir.

1304
01:46:30,564 --> 01:46:32,701
How much was it for?

1305
01:46:32,734 --> 01:46:35,969
I had a 10-cent
and 15-cent policy,

1306
01:46:36,003 --> 01:46:39,106
two weekly policies,
and they equaled $400.

1307
01:46:39,139 --> 01:46:41,208
$400?

1308
01:46:42,711 --> 01:46:44,479
Now, to whom
were those policies payable?

1309
01:46:44,512 --> 01:46:47,081
Uh,
we object to that, Your Honor.

1310
01:46:47,114 --> 01:46:48,750
Objection overruled.

1311
01:46:48,783 --> 01:46:50,951
The witness
will answer the question.

1312
01:46:52,019 --> 01:46:54,088
I was the beneficiary on one,

1313
01:46:54,121 --> 01:46:55,989
and my mother
was on the other.

1314
01:46:57,057 --> 01:46:58,092
He ever cause

1315
01:46:58,125 --> 01:46:59,860
or get in any trouble
in Chicago?

1316
01:47:00,695 --> 01:47:01,796
No more than any other boy.

1317
01:47:01,830 --> 01:47:03,263
Did he attend
a reform school?

1318
01:47:03,297 --> 01:47:04,532
What for?

1319
01:47:04,566 --> 01:47:05,567
No.

1320
01:47:06,934 --> 01:47:09,236
You've been quoted
in the colored press,

1321
01:47:09,269 --> 01:47:11,972
"I told him several times
before he left for Mississippi

1322
01:47:12,005 --> 01:47:13,409
"that he should kneel
in the street

1323
01:47:13,442 --> 01:47:14,744
"and beg for forgiveness

1324
01:47:14,777 --> 01:47:16,579
"should he ever insult
a White person."

1325
01:47:16,612 --> 01:47:18,714
Not those exact words.

1326
01:47:18,748 --> 01:47:21,182
Did you caution
him not to insult White women?

1327
01:47:21,216 --> 01:47:24,119
I referred to White people
in general.

1328
01:47:24,152 --> 01:47:25,821
Did you caution your son

1329
01:47:25,855 --> 01:47:27,255
how to conduct himself
and behave himself

1330
01:47:27,288 --> 01:47:28,557
while he was down here
in Mississippi?

1331
01:47:28,591 --> 01:47:29,525
Several times.

1332
01:47:29,558 --> 01:47:32,093
Several times!
Do tell us how.

1333
01:47:32,127 --> 01:47:34,028
I will give you
a literal description

1334
01:47:34,062 --> 01:47:35,398
of what I told him.

1335
01:47:35,431 --> 01:47:36,632
How coming down here,

1336
01:47:36,665 --> 01:47:39,934
he would have to adapt himself
to a different way of life.

1337
01:47:39,968 --> 01:47:42,036
Be very careful
about how he spoke,

1338
01:47:42,070 --> 01:47:43,472
and to whom he spoke,

1339
01:47:43,506 --> 01:47:47,175
and to always remember to say,
"Yes, sir" and "No, ma'am."

1340
01:47:47,208 --> 01:47:49,678
I told him that if ever
an incident should arise

1341
01:47:49,712 --> 01:47:51,045
where there would be
any trouble

1342
01:47:51,079 --> 01:47:52,548
of any kind with White people,

1343
01:47:52,581 --> 01:47:54,684
that if it got to the point
where he needed

1344
01:47:54,718 --> 01:47:56,486
to go down on his knees
before them,

1345
01:47:56,520 --> 01:47:59,890
well, I told him
not to hesitate to do so.

1346
01:47:59,922 --> 01:48:03,058
Like if he bumped
into somebody on the street

1347
01:48:03,092 --> 01:48:05,362
and they might get belligerent
or something.

1348
01:48:05,395 --> 01:48:08,197
Well, I told him to go ahead
and humble himself

1349
01:48:08,230 --> 01:48:11,435
so as not to get into
any trouble! But...

1350
01:48:12,502 --> 01:48:13,637
But what?

1351
01:48:14,871 --> 01:48:18,375
Well, I raised him with love
for 14 years.

1352
01:48:18,408 --> 01:48:22,344
My sudden warnings about hate
weren't going to get through.

1353
01:48:23,547 --> 01:48:25,080
I now show you
what purports to be

1354
01:48:25,114 --> 01:48:26,650
a photograph of your son.

1355
01:48:29,386 --> 01:48:33,790
This was taken in my home
two days after Christmas.

1356
01:48:33,824 --> 01:48:36,394
Now, tell the court
and the jury what this is.

1357
01:48:38,362 --> 01:48:41,632
This picture is of my son

1358
01:48:41,666 --> 01:48:45,670
after Mississippi sent him
back to Chicago, dead.

1359
01:48:49,206 --> 01:48:50,608
No further questions.

1360
01:48:52,376 --> 01:48:54,177
And for the prosecution?

1361
01:48:55,813 --> 01:48:57,180
State rests.

1362
01:48:59,484 --> 01:49:01,084
Court will have
a recess.

1363
01:49:06,990 --> 01:49:08,291
They...

1364
01:49:08,325 --> 01:49:11,294
They killed my son again.

1365
01:49:19,805 --> 01:49:21,105
Hmm.

1366
01:50:02,214 --> 01:50:04,717
Will the jury please
retire to the jury room?

1367
01:50:07,620 --> 01:50:10,490
The testimony
being offered here today

1368
01:50:10,523 --> 01:50:13,626
of a prior incident
at the store in Money

1369
01:50:13,660 --> 01:50:14,827
is irrelevant.

1370
01:50:15,995 --> 01:50:17,162
Your Honor,

1371
01:50:17,195 --> 01:50:19,933
may we still continue
the testimony

1372
01:50:19,966 --> 01:50:22,134
on account of the record?

1373
01:50:22,167 --> 01:50:23,603
Uh, Your Honor...

1374
01:50:23,636 --> 01:50:25,137
Sit down.

1375
01:50:26,071 --> 01:50:28,908
Now, I see no harm
in letting Ms. Bryant

1376
01:50:28,942 --> 01:50:32,277
share her side of things
if she wants to.

1377
01:50:32,311 --> 01:50:34,514
Hell, everybody else has.

1378
01:50:34,547 --> 01:50:36,549
You think
you can handle that, dear?

1379
01:50:44,925 --> 01:50:46,360
Mrs. Bryant,

1380
01:50:47,160 --> 01:50:49,295
was anyone in the store
with you

1381
01:50:49,329 --> 01:50:53,801
on Wednesday night,
24th day of August, 1955?

1382
01:50:56,036 --> 01:50:57,438
I was alone.

1383
01:50:58,539 --> 01:51:01,107
But the children
were in the back.

1384
01:51:01,140 --> 01:51:02,743
In the living quarters.

1385
01:51:04,044 --> 01:51:06,447
And what time of day was it?

1386
01:51:06,480 --> 01:51:07,681
After dark.

1387
01:51:09,083 --> 01:51:10,116
Alone.

1388
01:51:10,149 --> 01:51:12,352
At nighttime
with your children.

1389
01:51:12,386 --> 01:51:14,888
Well, you just tell the court
what happened next.

1390
01:51:17,156 --> 01:51:19,893
This nigger man
came into the store

1391
01:51:19,927 --> 01:51:22,262
and stood by the candy case.

1392
01:51:23,031 --> 01:51:24,633
And you?

1393
01:51:24,666 --> 01:51:27,267
I was
behind the counter.

1394
01:51:27,301 --> 01:51:30,105
I asked the man
what he wanted.

1395
01:51:30,137 --> 01:51:32,641
And then did you get him
the merchandise?

1396
01:51:32,674 --> 01:51:33,675
Yes.

1397
01:51:35,275 --> 01:51:38,113
And then what did you do?

1398
01:51:38,145 --> 01:51:40,482
I held out my hand
for the money.

1399
01:51:41,683 --> 01:51:43,350
Will you show the court

1400
01:51:43,385 --> 01:51:44,853
how you held your hand out?

1401
01:51:46,688 --> 01:51:47,722
Like this.

1402
01:51:47,756 --> 01:51:50,190
And did he give you
the money?

1403
01:51:50,224 --> 01:51:52,360
No,
he caught my hand.

1404
01:51:53,361 --> 01:51:55,262
Will you show the court

1405
01:51:55,295 --> 01:51:57,399
just how he grasped your hand?

1406
01:52:01,236 --> 01:52:03,105
And was that a strong grip
or a light grip

1407
01:52:03,139 --> 01:52:05,675
that he had
when he held your hand?

1408
01:52:05,708 --> 01:52:07,043
A strong grip.

1409
01:52:09,277 --> 01:52:11,781
Will you show
the court what you did?

1410
01:52:11,814 --> 01:52:13,449
How did you get loose?

1411
01:52:18,854 --> 01:52:21,724
I jerked it loose like this.

1412
01:52:22,892 --> 01:52:27,195
Now, just what did he say
when he grabbed your hand?

1413
01:52:28,931 --> 01:52:31,801
- "How about a date, baby?"
- Hmm.

1414
01:52:33,002 --> 01:52:35,171
Now, you freed yourself.

1415
01:52:35,203 --> 01:52:36,706
And what happened then?

1416
01:52:41,010 --> 01:52:43,312
I turned to the back
of the store.

1417
01:52:45,214 --> 01:52:47,316
And he went on his way?

1418
01:52:49,453 --> 01:52:51,220
No.

1419
01:52:51,253 --> 01:52:54,658
He came after me.

1420
01:52:54,691 --> 01:52:57,661
He caught me down
by the cash register.

1421
01:53:00,197 --> 01:53:04,634
Mrs. Bryant, can you
demonstrate for the court?

1422
01:53:07,504 --> 01:53:08,371
Yes.

1423
01:53:08,405 --> 01:53:09,706
All right, now.

1424
01:53:17,614 --> 01:53:20,383
Grabbed your hands,
pinned them behind your back?

1425
01:53:22,652 --> 01:53:23,955
Yes.

1426
01:53:23,988 --> 01:53:26,958
His right hand
on your right hip?

1427
01:53:28,426 --> 01:53:29,927
Here.

1428
01:53:31,095 --> 01:53:32,663
Just what did he say?

1429
01:53:34,665 --> 01:53:38,736
He said,
"You needn't be afraid of me.

1430
01:53:38,770 --> 01:53:40,772
"I've been
with White women before."

1431
01:53:41,739 --> 01:53:43,841
And what happened then?

1432
01:53:43,875 --> 01:53:46,309
Then another nigger
came in the door...

1433
01:53:48,212 --> 01:53:50,414
I'm ready to go.

1434
01:53:50,448 --> 01:53:51,816
You want me
to come and get you

1435
01:53:51,849 --> 01:53:52,750
when they read a verdict?

1436
01:53:52,784 --> 01:53:56,921
No. I'm ready
to leave Mississippi. Now.

1437
01:53:56,954 --> 01:53:58,422
What about the verdict?

1438
01:53:59,423 --> 01:54:01,359
I know what the verdict is.

1439
01:54:04,128 --> 01:54:06,632
<i>After deliberating</i>
<i>for about an hour,</i>

1440
01:54:06,665 --> 01:54:09,034
<i>the jury has just come back</i>
<i>with a verdict</i>

1441
01:54:09,067 --> 01:54:11,036
<i>of "not guilty."</i>

1442
01:54:11,069 --> 01:54:15,007
<i>Thus the defendants Milam</i>
<i>and Bryant are free men.</i>

1443
01:54:15,040 --> 01:54:16,642
<i>They celebrated their victory</i>

1444
01:54:16,675 --> 01:54:20,279
<i>laughing and smiling with</i>
<i>their wives at their side,</i>

1445
01:54:20,311 --> 01:54:23,048
<i>clearly happy...</i>

1446
01:54:56,348 --> 01:55:00,720
<i>Her story</i>
<i>has changed the world.</i>

1447
01:55:00,753 --> 01:55:04,457
<i>Because she had the courage</i>
<i>to make it not just her own,</i>

1448
01:55:05,124 --> 01:55:06,426
<i>but all of ours.</i>

1449
01:55:09,128 --> 01:55:12,765
<i>Mamie, it is an honor</i>
<i>to share the stage with you.</i>

1450
01:55:14,434 --> 01:55:16,402
<i>To share this fight with you.</i>

1451
01:55:16,436 --> 01:55:18,438
Yes, yes!

1452
01:55:18,471 --> 01:55:23,710
<i>Please welcome</i>
<i>Mrs. Mamie Till-Bradley.</i>

1453
01:55:28,749 --> 01:55:30,317
This is just
the beginning.

1454
01:55:39,960 --> 01:55:44,198
<i>I would like to</i>
<i>give honor to God,</i>

1455
01:55:44,231 --> 01:55:46,267
<i>who is the source</i>
<i>of my strength</i>

1456
01:55:46,300 --> 01:55:48,168
<i>and the reason for my being.</i>

1457
01:55:49,470 --> 01:55:52,973
<i>I thank you,</i>
<i>Mr. Mooty and the NAACP,</i>

1458
01:55:53,007 --> 01:55:55,976
<i>for inviting me</i>
<i>to speak before you all</i>

1459
01:55:56,010 --> 01:55:57,778
<i>in Harlem, New York City.</i>

1460
01:55:58,178 --> 01:55:59,780
Yes.

1461
01:55:59,813 --> 01:56:02,783
<i>My son's brutalized body</i>
<i>meant nothing</i>

1462
01:56:02,816 --> 01:56:05,986
<i>to Mississippi's</i>
<i>criminal justice system.</i>

1463
01:56:06,020 --> 01:56:09,224
<i>And while they blamed</i>
<i>the victim, as usual,</i>

1464
01:56:09,257 --> 01:56:12,627
<i>the federal government</i>
<i>stood idly by.</i>

1465
01:56:12,661 --> 01:56:15,196
<i>If this country</i>
<i>fails to protect</i>

1466
01:56:15,230 --> 01:56:16,865
<i>the Black body from hate,</i>

1467
01:56:16,898 --> 01:56:19,334
<i>America has yet to meet</i>
<i>her promise.</i>

1468
01:56:19,368 --> 01:56:20,635
Amen!

1469
01:56:20,669 --> 01:56:24,172
<i>Either freedom for everyone,</i>
<i>or freedom fails!</i>

1470
01:56:32,948 --> 01:56:37,018
<i>One month ago, I had</i>
<i>a nice apartment in Chicago.</i>

1471
01:56:37,052 --> 01:56:41,656
<i>I had a good job. I had a son.</i>

1472
01:56:41,690 --> 01:56:44,092
<i>When something happened</i>
<i>to the Negroes in the South,</i>

1473
01:56:44,125 --> 01:56:48,129
<i>I said, "Well, that's</i>
<i>their business. Not mine."</i>

1474
01:56:48,163 --> 01:56:51,701
<i>Now I know how wrong I was.</i>

1475
01:56:51,734 --> 01:56:54,003
<i>The lynching of my son</i>
<i>has shown me</i>

1476
01:56:54,036 --> 01:56:56,072
<i>that what happens</i>
<i>to any of us,</i>

1477
01:56:56,105 --> 01:56:57,374
<i>anywhere in the world,</i>

1478
01:56:57,407 --> 01:57:00,476
<i>had better be the business</i>
<i>of us all.</i>

1479
01:57:15,358 --> 01:57:16,993
I hear ya, sister!

1480
01:57:17,526 --> 01:57:18,928
That's right.

1481
01:57:19,695 --> 01:57:21,297
Tell it like it is!

1482
01:57:21,330 --> 01:57:22,631
I heard that!

1483
01:57:24,000 --> 01:57:25,534
Yes! Yes!
