No, I'm just
doing a little shopping.

14
00:02:06,827 --> 00:02:09,196
We also have shoes
in the basement.

know that too?

16
00:02:13,734 --> 00:02:15,369
Mama.

00:02:15,402 --> 00:02:17,438
Which one do you like better?

18
00:02:17,471 --> 00:02:18,405
Pardon me.

19
00:02:22,810 --> 00:02:24,979
I think I like this one.

20
00:02:25,012 --> 00:02:27,515
Will you really need a wallet
while you're down there?

21
00:02:27,549 --> 00:02:29,416
Oh, Mama. Please?

00:02:31,620 --> 00:02:32,654
Okay. Fine.

00:02:32,687 --> 00:02:34,488

You did that.

You didn't stutter,
not one time.

34
00:03:25,205 --> 00:03:26,106
Now, Bo, you know

35
00:03:26,140 --> 00:03:28,008
it's time for you
to go to bed.

36
00:03:28,677 --> 00:03:30,210
Aw...

37
00:03:30,244 --> 00:03:32,580
You know you got
a big day tomorrow.

38
00:03:32,614 --> 00:03:34,214
Come on. Give Grandma a hug.

39
00:03:39,688 --> 00:03:40,888
I'll see you
when you get back.

40
00:03:40,921 --> 00:03:42,122
Bring it in.

41
00:03:44,958 --> 00:03:45,926
Good night, Mr. G.

42
00:03:45,959 --> 00:03:47,161
All right.

43
00:03:48,329 --> 00:03:49,396
Oh.

44
00:03:49,430 --> 00:03:51,932
You two don't get married
before I get back.

45
00:03:51,965 --> 00:03:53,867
Can't get married
without my best man.

46
00:03:54,368 --> 00:03:55,537
Good night.

47
00:03:58,305 --> 00:03:59,840
What?
Is it my bedtime too?

48
00:04:00,642 --> 00:04:01,710
Could be.

49
00:04:04,411 --> 00:04:05,446
Good night.

50
00:04:06,581 --> 00:04:08,849
I'll call you
after Bo gets on the train.

51
00:04:10,785 --> 00:04:12,052
Mrs. Spearman.

52
00:04:13,220 --> 00:04:14,488
She'll see you tomorrow.

53
00:04:14,522 --> 00:04:16,223
- All right. Good night.
- Good night.

54
00:04:21,730 --> 00:04:23,197
What's wrong, Mamie?

55
00:04:27,868 --> 00:04:29,870
We've never been apart
this long.

56
00:04:31,673 --> 00:04:34,274
He's just going
to see his cousins.

57
00:04:34,308 --> 00:04:36,644
It's not a bad thing for him
to know where he come from.

58
00:04:36,678 --> 00:04:38,946
Well, Chicago is all
he needs to know.

59
00:04:38,979 --> 00:04:40,914
I don't want him
seeing himself

60
00:04:40,948 --> 00:04:43,217
the way those people
are seen down there.

61
00:04:44,485 --> 00:04:45,953
Those people like me?

62
00:04:48,188 --> 00:04:50,424
Even you
left Mississippi, Mama.

63
00:04:52,761 --> 00:04:55,963
Mamie, Bo is growing up.

64
00:04:56,765 --> 00:04:58,633
You gonna have to let him go.

65
00:05:00,568 --> 00:05:03,003
All right, I know that face.

66
00:05:03,036 --> 00:05:04,238
That is the face of

67
00:05:04,271 --> 00:05:06,741
"Mama, mind your business,
and go home."

68
00:05:06,775 --> 00:05:07,809
Where's my pocket book?

69
00:05:07,842 --> 00:05:09,042
Mm-hmm. Right here.

70
00:05:09,076 --> 00:05:10,210
Oh, there it is.

71
00:05:11,111 --> 00:05:13,882
You need to get you
some rest too.

72
00:05:13,914 --> 00:05:15,215
- I will.
- Come on, baby.

73
00:05:15,249 --> 00:05:17,251
-I'll call you tomorrow.
-All right.

74
00:05:22,322 --> 00:05:24,592
-Good night, Mama.
-Good night, darlin'.

75
00:06:10,738 --> 00:06:11,739

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

102
00:07:24,012 --> 00:07:26,480
Bo, when you get down there...

103
00:07:26,514 --> 00:07:28,148
Oh, not again, Mama.

104
00:07:28,181 --> 00:07:29,717
I've already
been to Mississippi.

105
00:07:29,751 --> 00:07:31,118
Only one time before,

106
00:07:31,151 --> 00:07:34,221
and you started a fight
with another little boy.

107
00:07:34,254 --> 00:07:37,124
He was picking on me.

108
00:07:37,157 --> 00:07:38,993
You're in the right
to stand up for yourself,

109
00:07:39,027 --> 00:07:40,728
but that's not
what I'm talking about.

110
00:07:45,065 --> 00:07:46,634
Well, they have
a different set of rules

111
00:07:46,668 --> 00:07:47,735
for Negroes down there.

112
00:07:47,769 --> 00:07:49,069
Are you listening?

113
00:07:49,871 --> 00:07:51,639
Yes.

114
00:07:51,673 --> 00:07:54,074
You have to be extra careful
with White people.

115
00:07:54,107 --> 00:07:56,376
You can't risk looking at them
the wrong way.

116
00:07:56,410 --> 00:07:57,411
I know.

117
00:07:59,614 --> 00:08:00,615
Bo.

118
00:08:02,316 --> 00:08:04,384
Be small down there.

119
00:08:05,887 --> 00:08:07,087
Like this?

120
00:08:25,439 --> 00:08:27,140
Instead of your father's ring,

121
00:08:27,174 --> 00:08:28,643
how about you wear
the cufflinks

122
00:08:28,676 --> 00:08:29,944
we got you last Christmas?

123
00:08:29,978 --> 00:08:32,013
They'll look so handsome
on you.

124
00:08:32,046 --> 00:08:34,082
No, Mama.

125
00:08:34,114 --> 00:08:35,583
I wanna wear the ring.

126
00:08:46,928 --> 00:08:49,129
Thank you.

127
00:08:49,664 --> 00:08:50,898
Go on downstairs.

128
00:08:50,932 --> 00:08:52,734
I need to finish
getting ready myself.

129
00:09:16,624 --> 00:09:17,659
Ah, morning, Mamie!

130
00:09:17,692 --> 00:09:19,794
Morning, Preacher.
Good morning, Wheeler.

131
00:09:19,827 --> 00:09:21,194
Hi, Miss Mamie.
Hi, Bo.

132
00:09:21,228 --> 00:09:23,064
You're leaving
Chicago too soon.

133
00:09:23,097 --> 00:09:24,398
You were only here a few days.

134
00:09:24,431 --> 00:09:26,000
I didn't need
no more days than that.

135
00:09:26,034 --> 00:09:27,935
I got to see some family,
a few friends.

136
00:09:27,969 --> 00:09:29,070
Maybe we get you
to come down...

137
00:09:29,103 --> 00:09:30,170
- ...see us.
- All aboard!

138
00:09:30,203 --> 00:09:31,539
I like it just fine out here,
Preacher.

139
00:09:31,572 --> 00:09:32,339
All right, now.

140
00:09:32,372 --> 00:09:34,075
Bo, stay close
to your cousins.

141
00:09:34,108 --> 00:09:35,409
Preacher, you and Aunty Lizzie

142
00:09:35,442 --> 00:09:37,945
make sure Bo calls and writes
every chance he gets.

143
00:09:37,979 --> 00:09:39,547
I need to know he's okay.

144
00:09:39,580 --> 00:09:40,682
Don't worry.

145
00:09:40,715 --> 00:09:42,817
Me, Lizzie, and the boys
will have a stern eye on him.

146
00:09:42,850 --> 00:09:44,484
Goodbye, Mamie.

147
00:09:46,087 --> 00:09:47,689
All right, now.
Come on, Bobo.

148
00:09:47,722 --> 00:09:48,556
Buh-bye, Mama.

149
00:09:48,589 --> 00:09:50,825
Oh, Bo!
You didn't kiss me goodbye.

150
00:09:50,858 --> 00:09:52,392
Mama. I gotta go.

151
00:09:53,326 --> 00:09:54,494
Listen to Preacher.

152
00:09:54,529 --> 00:09:57,031
Stay with your cousins
at all times.

153
00:09:57,065 --> 00:09:58,800
Be extra careful.

154
00:09:58,833 --> 00:10:00,434
I already know.

155
00:10:03,771 --> 00:10:04,772
You know what?

156
00:10:06,239 --> 00:10:08,543
I won't need to keep the time
on my vacation.

157
00:10:09,077 --> 00:10:10,111
Wind it every day.

158
00:10:10,144 --> 00:10:11,779
Last call!
Train's leaving!

159
00:10:18,519 --> 00:10:20,588
Buh-bye, Mama.

160
00:10:20,621 --> 00:10:22,489
Come on, Bobo.
Aight, Mamie.

161
00:11:22,349 --> 00:11:23,684
Time to move now.

162
00:12:27,215 --> 00:12:28,583
Now,

163
00:12:28,616 --> 00:12:30,618
all you gotta do
is pinch the bract right here,

164
00:12:30,651 --> 00:12:32,954
so you don't
get your fingertips...

165
00:12:34,655 --> 00:12:37,692
Hey, look at the size
of that bird.

166
00:12:38,626 --> 00:12:39,961
Whoa!

167
00:12:39,994 --> 00:12:41,863
Where'd you get that ring?

168
00:12:41,896 --> 00:12:43,931
Oh, it was my daddy's.

169
00:12:43,965 --> 00:12:45,900
He died a hero in the war.

170
00:12:46,701 --> 00:12:48,435
Well, let me try it on.

171
00:12:49,337 --> 00:12:51,639
Um, maybe later.

172
00:12:52,039 --> 00:12:53,040
All right.

173
00:13:06,453 --> 00:13:07,889
- Bo?
- Is he all right?

174
00:13:08,388 --> 00:13:09,590
Bobo!

175
00:13:09,957 --> 00:13:10,958
Come on.

176
00:13:11,726 --> 00:13:13,493
Roar!

177
00:13:13,527 --> 00:13:16,429
From the depths
of an ancient tomb,

178
00:13:16,463 --> 00:13:19,000
echoes a sound
that shakes the world.

179
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,103
Meet the mummy, Simmy!

180
00:13:22,136 --> 00:13:23,371
Stop!

181
00:13:23,403 --> 00:13:24,839
You gonna get us in trouble.

182
00:13:24,872 --> 00:13:28,976
Or better yet, fired.
I'm done picking these fields.

183
00:13:29,010 --> 00:13:31,145
What do y'all do
with all this cotton anyway?

184
00:13:32,146 --> 00:13:33,981
We sell it.

185
00:13:34,015 --> 00:13:36,717
Mr. Frederick, who own
the land, take his share.

186
00:13:36,751 --> 00:13:38,819
I go to market with our haul.

187
00:13:38,853 --> 00:13:41,656
- Sounds pretty square.
- Hmm.

188
00:13:41,689 --> 00:13:43,224
Pa, you gonna let him
sass you that way?

189
00:13:43,257 --> 00:13:44,491
What way?

190
00:13:44,525 --> 00:13:46,193
The boy doesn't know
where his clothes come from.

191
00:13:49,096 --> 00:13:49,997
Nah.

192
00:13:50,031 --> 00:13:52,266
I take it back, Bobo.
Stay off the farm.

193
00:13:53,935 --> 00:13:56,270
City boy won't even know
how he found a whuppin'.

194
00:14:34,474 --> 00:14:36,410
Yes, he is.

195
00:14:36,444 --> 00:14:37,912
Damn near pass out.

196
00:14:43,851 --> 00:14:46,053
Come on, sit down.
Sit down, come on.

197
00:14:50,925 --> 00:14:51,993
Hey, young boy.

198
00:14:53,794 --> 00:14:55,162
How you doin' there,
young fella?

199
00:14:55,196 --> 00:14:56,263
Come on, learn somethin'.

200
00:14:56,297 --> 00:14:57,631
Well, I'm about raised
from the dead

201
00:14:57,665 --> 00:14:58,899
by all this excitement.

202
00:15:00,601 --> 00:15:01,635
Pay attention here,

203
00:15:01,669 --> 00:15:03,270
you gonna let us
learn you something.

204
00:15:04,705 --> 00:15:05,873
I'll make damn sure.

205
00:15:05,906 --> 00:15:07,975
I'mma do what I do.

206
00:15:22,490 --> 00:15:23,824
Thank you, ma'am.

207
00:15:34,535 --> 00:15:36,203
You look like a movie star.

208
00:15:37,138 --> 00:15:38,139
What?

209
00:15:43,377 --> 00:15:44,578
Where's Bobo?

210
00:15:44,612 --> 00:15:46,480
He's in there.

211
00:15:46,515 --> 00:15:49,583
Simmy. See to Bobo
while he's inside.

212
00:15:56,257 --> 00:15:57,258
See?

213
00:16:08,569 --> 00:16:09,770
Come on.

214
00:16:10,304 --> 00:16:11,439
Bye!

215
00:16:11,472 --> 00:16:13,542
Buh-bye!

216
00:16:13,574 --> 00:16:15,576
- Come on, let's go!
- Yeah?

217
00:16:36,797 --> 00:16:38,999
She getting her gun.
She getting her gun, y'all.

218
00:16:39,033 --> 00:16:40,000
Come on! Move!

219
00:16:40,034 --> 00:16:41,235
-Get up, now! Come on!
-Move!

220
00:16:41,268 --> 00:16:44,105
Move!
She goin' to get a gun, y'all!

221
00:16:44,138 --> 00:16:46,707
- Get in!
- Just lay low.

222
00:16:46,740 --> 00:16:47,942
Come on, Mau!

223
00:17:55,943 --> 00:17:57,344
Why aren't you at work?

224
00:17:59,581 --> 00:18:00,848
Is everything okay?

225
00:18:02,983 --> 00:18:05,352
That trip we planned
to take Bo on?

226
00:18:05,753 --> 00:18:06,954
Let's go now.

227
00:18:08,657 --> 00:18:10,858
You wanna go right now?

228
00:18:10,891 --> 00:18:12,359
You said you weren't feeling
that well.

229
00:18:12,393 --> 00:18:14,895
I was just missing Bo.

230
00:18:18,999 --> 00:18:22,102
I'm still missing Bo.

231
00:18:22,136 --> 00:18:23,871
We have never been apart
this long,

232
00:18:23,904 --> 00:18:25,607
and he's gonna be gone
another week.

233
00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:27,509
I need to keep doing things

234
00:18:27,542 --> 00:18:30,844
to take my mind off
of this feelin'.

235
00:18:33,981 --> 00:18:34,982
Okay.

236
00:18:35,684 --> 00:18:37,985
I can't go right now, but, uh,

237
00:18:38,587 --> 00:18:39,688
we'll try in a few days.

238
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,456
Promise me
we'll go on the trip?

239
00:18:44,158 --> 00:18:45,159
Of course.

240
00:19:00,841 --> 00:19:03,678
I'm trying not to act
so silly!

241
00:19:03,712 --> 00:19:05,145
Better watch yourself.

242
00:19:06,380 --> 00:19:08,650
I don't know,
'cause when he looks at me,

243
00:19:08,683 --> 00:19:10,719
I just lose my mind!

244
00:19:10,751 --> 00:19:13,087
Oh!
But just be yourself.

245
00:19:13,120 --> 00:19:16,290
Okay. I'll try.
It's gonna be all right.

246
00:19:20,861 --> 00:19:23,632
Oh! Nice try.

247
00:19:23,665 --> 00:19:25,132
It's a high-speed
competition, huh?

248
00:19:25,165 --> 00:19:27,201
They call you city boy,
or somethin'?

249
00:19:29,704 --> 00:19:31,338
Think you so damn funny, huh?

250
00:19:33,708 --> 00:19:35,009
Why you whistle like that?

251
00:19:36,076 --> 00:19:38,647
Look, it's been three days,
okay?

252
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:39,913
And we haven't heard
nothin' more

253
00:19:39,947 --> 00:19:41,181
about what I did in Money.

254
00:19:41,215 --> 00:19:43,217
That's 'cause no one knows
your face 'round here.

255
00:19:43,250 --> 00:19:44,619
That don't mean
they not in one of 'em cars

256
00:19:44,653 --> 00:19:45,687
looking for us.

257
00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:47,321
Look, I said I was sorry.

258
00:19:48,523 --> 00:19:50,157
We gotta tell Pappa.

259
00:19:50,190 --> 00:19:52,560
We all agreed
we wouldn't say anything.

260
00:19:52,594 --> 00:19:54,094
He'll make
Bobo go home.

261
00:19:54,128 --> 00:19:55,829
So what?

262
00:19:55,863 --> 00:19:57,766
You don't see what's been
going on around here?

263
00:19:57,798 --> 00:19:58,999
They killin' Negroes

264
00:19:59,033 --> 00:20:01,703
for doing way less
than what you did in Money.

265
00:20:01,736 --> 00:20:03,571
You ain't no White man, Bobo.
You one of us!

266
00:20:03,605 --> 00:20:04,838
Hey, leave him alone, Maurice.

267
00:20:04,872 --> 00:20:06,641
Mrs. Bryant must've kept it
to herself.

268
00:20:06,675 --> 00:20:08,175
No one has to know.

269
00:20:26,994 --> 00:20:29,731
Willie Mae, Ollie,

270
00:20:29,764 --> 00:20:32,266
I swear you two are losing
on purpose.

271
00:20:32,299 --> 00:20:34,201
Yeah, well, you must have
all the luck tonight, Mamie.

272
00:20:34,234 --> 00:20:36,203
Mm-hmm.

273
00:20:36,236 --> 00:20:37,871
Now, we've been here
all night,

274
00:20:37,905 --> 00:20:40,207
and you still haven't told us
what's bothering you.

275
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:41,676
I'm fine.

276
00:20:41,710 --> 00:20:43,545
I got a letter today
from Aunty Lizzie.

277
00:20:43,578 --> 00:20:46,748
She said Bo is really happy.
That's all I needed to hear.

278
00:20:46,781 --> 00:20:48,148
Mm.

279
00:20:48,182 --> 00:20:49,416
- That's real good, Mamie.
-  -Mm-hmm.

280
00:20:49,450 --> 00:20:51,385
My boy, Curtis, just made it
down to Mississippi.

281
00:20:51,418 --> 00:20:52,286
I already told Uncle,

282
00:20:52,319 --> 00:20:54,021
"Make sure he see Bo
tomorrow."

283
00:20:54,054 --> 00:20:55,356
Bo would like that.

284
00:20:55,389 --> 00:20:56,490
Yeah.

285
00:20:56,524 --> 00:20:58,125
It'd be nice for him
to have another friend...

286
00:20:58,158 --> 00:21:00,194
- ...from the city there with him.
-  -Mm-hmm.

287
00:21:00,227 --> 00:21:01,929
Oh, he just
doesn't understand

288
00:21:01,962 --> 00:21:03,698
how different things are
down there.

289
00:21:03,732 --> 00:21:04,932
Yeah.

290
00:21:04,965 --> 00:21:07,736
Aunty Lizzie said
Bo's been working the fields.

291
00:21:07,769 --> 00:21:09,804
Oh!

292
00:21:09,838 --> 00:21:13,140
I can't imagine
Bo in the hot sun

293
00:21:13,173 --> 00:21:14,975
all day pulling some cotton.

294
00:21:15,008 --> 00:21:16,377
No.

295
00:21:16,410 --> 00:21:19,848
But Aunty Lizzie said I raised
one nice, hardworking boy.

296
00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:21,448
- That's my Bo.
- Yes.

297
00:21:25,886 --> 00:21:28,122
Can't believe
he's been gone a week.

298
00:21:29,123 --> 00:21:31,291
Gene and I wanna take
a trip soon,

299
00:21:31,325 --> 00:21:33,528
but I really wanna go down
to Mississippi

300
00:21:33,561 --> 00:21:35,028
and bring my son home.

301
00:21:35,963 --> 00:21:38,365
If Bo could just
get his feet back

302
00:21:38,399 --> 00:21:41,368
onto the Chicago soil,
he'd be one happy kid.

303
00:21:48,676 --> 00:21:51,145
I... I don't know
why I said that.

304
00:21:55,949 --> 00:21:57,585
Looks like
your little winning streak

305
00:21:57,619 --> 00:21:58,620
is over, Mamie.

306
00:22:03,056 --> 00:22:05,760
Well, look at that.

307
00:22:05,794 --> 00:22:07,194
You wanna play
one more hand?

308
00:22:07,227 --> 00:22:08,028
Sure.

309
00:22:08,061 --> 00:22:09,564
But you deal this time.

310
00:22:09,597 --> 00:22:11,932
Absolutely.
You still gonna lose.

311
00:22:16,003 --> 00:22:18,138
These cards, girl.

312
00:22:19,273 --> 00:22:21,008
<i>A grand jury has declined</i>

313
00:22:21,041 --> 00:22:22,309
<i>to indict the suspect</i>

319
00:22:43,297 --> 00:22:45,533
Pappa, you and Mama
ain't asleep?

320
00:22:45,567 --> 00:22:46,467
Mm.

321
00:22:46,500 --> 00:22:48,969
How can we sleep
when y'all ain't home yet?

322
00:22:49,002 --> 00:22:50,905
What'd you boys
get into tonight?

323
00:22:50,939 --> 00:22:52,841
Nothing much, Daddy.
Just taking Bobo around.

324
00:22:52,874 --> 00:22:54,208
Mm.

325
00:22:54,241 --> 00:22:55,844
All right. Night, Ma.
Night, Pa.

326
00:22:55,877 --> 00:22:56,945
- Good night.
- Night night.

327
00:22:56,977 --> 00:22:58,111
Good night.

328
00:23:00,815 --> 00:23:02,015
Bobo!

329
00:23:05,753 --> 00:23:06,987
We leaving early tomorrow

330
00:23:07,020 --> 00:23:09,089
to mail that letter out
to your mama, you hear?

331
00:23:09,858 --> 00:23:12,961
Okay. Good night.

332
00:23:12,993 --> 00:23:14,662
Good night.

333
00:23:14,696 --> 00:23:17,799
That was close.

334
00:23:17,832 --> 00:23:20,467
<i>...after having</i>
<i>registered dozens of Negroes</i>

335
00:23:20,501 --> 00:23:22,770

336

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

337
00:24:51,893 --> 00:24:53,160
Preacher!

338
00:24:53,928 --> 00:24:55,195
Preacher!

339
00:24:56,296 --> 00:24:57,665
Who is it?

340
00:24:57,699 --> 00:24:58,533
It's Mr. Bryant.

341
00:24:58,566 --> 00:25:00,768
I wanna talk to you
about that boy.

342
00:25:03,303 --> 00:25:04,137
Sir?

343
00:25:04,171 --> 00:25:05,272
I want that boy

344
00:25:05,305 --> 00:25:07,374
who did the talking down
in Money.

345
00:25:08,042 --> 00:25:10,410
Talking, sir? What talking?

346
00:25:10,444 --> 00:25:12,245
Open up this door,
Preacher!

347
00:25:14,549 --> 00:25:15,550
Bobo!

348
00:25:17,150 --> 00:25:19,486
You better open up
this door, Preacher!

349
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:21,022
Bobo! Wake up!

350
00:25:22,189 --> 00:25:23,992
Leave me alone.

351
00:25:24,025 --> 00:25:25,059
Get up! Someone's come!

352
00:25:25,093 --> 00:25:26,594
You know
who I'm talking about!

353
00:25:26,628 --> 00:25:27,662
So what?

354
00:25:27,695 --> 00:25:29,129
They've come for you!

355
00:25:29,162 --> 00:25:30,531
I don't know.

356
00:25:30,565 --> 00:25:31,633
Who's come?

357
00:25:33,001 --> 00:25:35,036
I don't know what you mean,
Mr. Bryant.

358
00:25:35,069 --> 00:25:37,337
You got that boy
from Chicago.

359
00:25:58,158 --> 00:25:59,727
You that big mouth nigger?

360
00:26:00,695 --> 00:26:01,629
Who are you?

361
00:26:02,462 --> 00:26:03,865
Get your clothes on.

362
00:26:07,635 --> 00:26:10,672
Mr. Bryant,
you ain't got to do this.

363
00:26:10,705 --> 00:26:11,939
He just a young boy.

364
00:26:11,973 --> 00:26:13,273
Better shut them eyes.

365
00:26:13,306 --> 00:26:14,709
- Oh!
- Simmy!

366
00:26:25,620 --> 00:26:28,188
You don't need
no goddamn socks, boy.

367
00:26:30,525 --> 00:26:32,694
I... I don't wear shoes
without socks.

368
00:26:34,796 --> 00:26:36,296
Don't talk back to them!

369
00:26:36,329 --> 00:26:37,832
We just gonna
teach him a lesson.

370
00:26:37,865 --> 00:26:39,033
Stay right here, Simmy!

371
00:26:39,067 --> 00:26:40,168
- Please!
- Move!

372
00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:41,569
- Don't take him!
- Move!

373
00:26:41,602 --> 00:26:44,404
I'll whup him
if he's done something wrong!

374
00:26:44,438 --> 00:26:47,008
We'll give you money.

375
00:26:47,041 --> 00:26:48,142
Watch out.

376
00:26:48,176 --> 00:26:49,376
We don't need no money!

377
00:26:50,111 --> 00:26:51,045
Please!

378
00:26:51,079 --> 00:26:52,914
The boy ain't got good sense.

379
00:26:52,947 --> 00:26:54,247
He's gonna learn!

380
00:26:57,350 --> 00:26:58,720
But, Mr. Bryant!

381
00:27:02,222 --> 00:27:03,524
What'd you say
to my brother?

382
00:27:17,071 --> 00:27:18,271
All right. Get up.

383
00:27:21,509 --> 00:27:22,610
Carolyn!

384
00:27:23,778 --> 00:27:24,946
Is this the right nigger?

385
00:27:30,718 --> 00:27:31,853
That's the one.

386
00:27:32,620 --> 00:27:33,654
All right.

387
00:27:36,057 --> 00:27:37,225
Get off me.

388
00:27:37,257 --> 00:27:38,926
Shut up, boy! Shut up.

389
00:27:41,596 --> 00:27:44,031
All right.

390
00:28:43,157 --> 00:28:44,424
Look at me, boy!

391
00:28:46,426 --> 00:28:47,795
Hold him down!

392
00:28:49,396 --> 00:28:51,464
Watch it, now!

393
00:28:53,433 --> 00:28:54,467
Shut your mouth!

394
00:28:56,469 --> 00:28:58,206
Come on. Get up! Get up!

395
00:28:58,239 --> 00:28:59,273
Hold him up!

396
00:29:48,256 --> 00:29:49,456
Hello?

397
00:29:55,563 --> 00:29:57,698
Get out of the way, Gene!
I gotta get to Money!

398
00:29:57,732 --> 00:29:59,367
Money? Money?
Mamie, what's going on?

399
00:29:59,399 --> 00:30:00,601
They took Bo!

400
00:30:00,635 --> 00:30:01,936
-Who took Bo?
-I...

401
00:30:01,969 --> 00:30:04,038
Preacher told me two men came
and got Bo last night.

402
00:30:04,071 --> 00:30:05,573
I couldn't hear anything else
after that.

403
00:30:05,606 --> 00:30:07,241
-I gotta find Bo!
-Mamie! Mamie! Mamie!

404
00:30:07,275 --> 00:30:10,378
Mamie, let's go inside,
call your mama,

405
00:30:10,410 --> 00:30:12,412
try and get in touch with
Preacher and Aunty Lizzie

406
00:30:12,445 --> 00:30:13,648
for more information, okay?

407
00:30:14,682 --> 00:30:16,651
Come on. Come on.

408
00:30:19,186 --> 00:30:22,123
We give you
all the glory, Lord.

409
00:30:22,156 --> 00:30:23,891
-Glory to God.
-Yes.

410
00:30:23,925 --> 00:30:27,361
Glory to God.
Yes, Lord. Glory to God.

411
00:30:27,395 --> 00:30:29,429
- Yes.
- Mm-hmm.

412
00:30:29,462 --> 00:30:32,033
He's going to bring him
back to you, baby.

413
00:30:33,301 --> 00:30:34,635
Yes, ma'am.

414
00:30:37,204 --> 00:30:38,406
Alma.

415
00:30:38,438 --> 00:30:39,807
Thank you.

416
00:30:42,944 --> 00:30:43,945
Mamie.

417
00:30:45,413 --> 00:30:46,614
Alma.

418
00:30:47,581 --> 00:30:49,116
You weren't going to tell me?

419
00:30:50,518 --> 00:30:52,186
I called your wife.

420
00:30:55,122 --> 00:30:58,960
No matter the differences
between me and your mother,

421
00:30:59,527 --> 00:31:01,195
I'm still your father.

422
00:31:02,430 --> 00:31:03,631
Mamie,

423
00:31:04,932 --> 00:31:07,201
we're gonna find Bo.

424
00:31:07,234 --> 00:31:09,603
- Mm.
- Sit down.

425
00:31:09,637 --> 00:31:12,974
I brought your cousin along
to help us.

426
00:31:13,007 --> 00:31:16,577
Do you remember Rayfield?
Rayfield Mooty.

427
00:31:17,645 --> 00:31:20,681
Came by the house a lot
when you was a kid.

428
00:31:20,715 --> 00:31:23,417
He works with some
powerful Negro people

429
00:31:23,451 --> 00:31:25,219
who can help us find Bo.

430
00:31:26,821 --> 00:31:28,556
It's been a long time, ma'am.

431
00:31:28,589 --> 00:31:30,558
- Nice to see you again.
- Mm.

432
00:31:31,792 --> 00:31:32,793
Mamie.

433
00:31:33,794 --> 00:31:36,764
Oh. I'm sorry.

434
00:31:36,797 --> 00:31:40,067
Thank you for coming,
Mr. Mooty.

435
00:31:40,101 --> 00:31:41,501
I've, uh...

436
00:31:43,137 --> 00:31:47,842
I've been in touch
with Mr. William Huff,

437
00:31:47,875 --> 00:31:51,612
counsel for the NAACP chapter
here in Chicago.

438
00:31:51,645 --> 00:31:54,515
He wants to meet with you
first thing tomorrow morning.

439
00:31:54,548 --> 00:31:57,818
I've included the address
to his office.

440
00:31:58,786 --> 00:31:59,787
Here.

441
00:32:02,690 --> 00:32:04,058
He has political connections

442
00:32:04,091 --> 00:32:05,993
throughout the state
of Mississippi.

443
00:32:06,027 --> 00:32:08,496
And he's in regular contact
with Mayor Daley,

444
00:32:08,562 --> 00:32:11,165
Congressman Dawson,
and Governor Stratton.

445
00:32:12,533 --> 00:32:15,169
I do know the NAACP,

446
00:32:15,202 --> 00:32:18,939
and it sounds like
he knows the right people

447
00:32:18,973 --> 00:32:22,543
who can help me find Bo.

448
00:32:24,513 --> 00:32:26,313
Well, I'll meet you
in Mr. Huff's office

449
00:32:26,347 --> 00:32:28,015
tomorrow morning at 9:00 a.m.

450
00:32:30,151 --> 00:32:31,986
- Thanks, Ray.
- Mm-hmm.

451
00:32:32,019 --> 00:32:33,554
I will see you soon.

452
00:32:38,092 --> 00:32:40,127
Hey.

453
00:32:41,996 --> 00:32:44,899
<i>♪ At last the leader</i>
<i>turned around and said ♪</i>

454
00:32:44,932 --> 00:32:47,001
<i>♪ Listen, Pops,</i>
<i>you had better stop ♪</i>

455
00:32:47,034 --> 00:32:49,203

456
00:32:49,236 --> 00:32:52,807
<i>♪ You just beeped</i>
<i>when you should have bopped ♪</i>

457
00:33:34,415 --> 00:33:35,616
It's on your calendar,

458
00:33:35,649 --> 00:33:37,351
and you have the meeting
right after that.

459
00:33:37,384 --> 00:33:38,752
Morning!

460
00:33:38,786 --> 00:33:40,254
Hi, John.
How are you today?

461
00:33:58,540 --> 00:34:00,641
Mr. Huff,
this is Mrs. Bradley.

462
00:34:00,674 --> 00:34:02,877
Thank you for meeting with us,
Mr. Huff.

463
00:34:02,910 --> 00:34:04,812
- And Mr. Mobley.
- Yes, thank you.

464
00:34:04,845 --> 00:34:07,815
I have great respect
for your cousin.

465
00:34:07,848 --> 00:34:09,884
His work with the
United Steelworkers has helped

466
00:34:09,917 --> 00:34:12,653
to make it one of
the strongest Negro unions.

467
00:34:13,588 --> 00:34:15,789
- I didn't know that.
- Mm-hmm.

468
00:34:20,261 --> 00:34:21,262
Are you employed?

469
00:34:22,930 --> 00:34:24,131
I work for the Air Force.

470
00:34:24,165 --> 00:34:26,133
She's the only Negro woman
in the office.

471
00:34:28,769 --> 00:34:30,204
Mrs. Bradley.

472
00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:32,873
You two aren't married?

473
00:34:34,208 --> 00:34:35,242
Um...

474
00:34:35,276 --> 00:34:36,343
No.

475
00:34:36,377 --> 00:34:37,711
Not yet, anyway.

476
00:34:38,547 --> 00:34:39,980
Where's Emmett's father?

477
00:34:42,082 --> 00:34:45,719
Louis Till died overseas
about 10 years ago.

478
00:34:45,753 --> 00:34:47,154
Uh, during the war.

479
00:34:48,489 --> 00:34:50,224
And Mr. Bradley?

480
00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:54,895
You have a lot of questions
for me, Mr. Huff.

481
00:34:54,929 --> 00:34:57,898
And none of them seem to have
anything to do with my son.

482
00:35:04,238 --> 00:35:05,674
I've been briefed
on your case.

483
00:35:05,706 --> 00:35:08,042
Bo is not a case.

484
00:35:11,011 --> 00:35:12,947
I've drafted
two telegrams to send.

485
00:35:12,980 --> 00:35:15,149
One to Governor White
in Mississippi.

486
00:35:15,182 --> 00:35:16,618
The other
to Governor Stratton,

487
00:35:16,651 --> 00:35:18,252
here in Illinois.

488
00:35:18,285 --> 00:35:20,221
It's important they know
about Emmett.

489
00:35:21,222 --> 00:35:23,090
We're currently investigating
the murders

490
00:35:23,123 --> 00:35:25,159
of Lamar Smith
and Reverend Lee.

491
00:35:25,192 --> 00:35:28,095
They did a lot of work getting
Negroes registered to vote.

492
00:35:28,128 --> 00:35:29,698
Because of what happened
to them,

493
00:35:29,730 --> 00:35:31,065
the Negro press in Mississippi

494
00:35:31,098 --> 00:35:33,668
started to write
about Emmett's kidnapping,

495
00:35:33,702 --> 00:35:36,170
but it's not creating
enough pressure needed

496
00:35:36,203 --> 00:35:39,373
to force them
into a state-wide search.

497
00:35:41,275 --> 00:35:42,843
Now, as your counsel,

498
00:35:42,876 --> 00:35:46,514
I'd like to utilize all of
the press here in Chicago.

499
00:35:46,548 --> 00:35:47,716
It's more likely
to get picked up

500
00:35:47,748 --> 00:35:49,584
by other cities that way.

501
00:35:49,618 --> 00:35:51,352
You're gonna have to talk
to reporters,

502
00:35:52,687 --> 00:35:54,188
speak in front of cameras.

503
00:35:54,888 --> 00:35:57,525
So... we like to make sure

504
00:35:57,559 --> 00:36:01,262
that the person who's telling
the story is in public favor.

505
00:36:03,698 --> 00:36:06,133
It's better that I ask you
questions now

506
00:36:06,166 --> 00:36:08,936
than some reporter
finding something later.

507
00:36:13,974 --> 00:36:15,342
The reverend and Mr. Lee,

508
00:36:15,376 --> 00:36:18,245
I heard they were killed
right before Bo got down there.

509
00:36:18,279 --> 00:36:19,514
Mamie...

510
00:36:19,547 --> 00:36:23,284
I know these Citizen Councils
are everywhere in Mississippi.

511
00:36:23,317 --> 00:36:25,419
You think they had a part
in any of it?

512
00:36:28,556 --> 00:36:30,725
When the message
to White people

513
00:36:30,759 --> 00:36:34,428
is to stop Negroes
from voting or advancing,

514
00:36:35,597 --> 00:36:37,532
by any means
short of violence,

515
00:36:38,932 --> 00:36:40,134
it's only a matter of time

516
00:36:40,167 --> 00:36:42,903
before someone doesn't
stop short of it.

517
00:36:44,639 --> 00:36:47,074
Let's just focus
on finding Bo.

518
00:36:52,813 --> 00:36:54,415
Why do you call him "Bo"?

519
00:36:57,951 --> 00:37:00,220
When I was carrying him,

520
00:37:01,623 --> 00:37:03,792
my mama's friend
would bring him gifts

521
00:37:03,824 --> 00:37:06,126
all the time, and say,

522
00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:08,128
"Here's another one
for little Bobo."

523
00:37:09,764 --> 00:37:12,966
After he was born,
it just stuck.

524
00:37:16,837 --> 00:37:19,373
He was a perfect baby.

525
00:37:19,406 --> 00:37:23,377
Born breech, and had
his share of problems, but...

526
00:37:25,979 --> 00:37:29,450
he was a perfect baby.

527
00:37:49,103 --> 00:37:51,138
Hi, we live across the street

528
00:37:51,171 --> 00:37:53,173
and read about
what happened to Emmett.

529
00:37:53,207 --> 00:37:56,377
Everybody in the neighborhood
knows that sweet little boy.

530
00:38:02,249 --> 00:38:03,785
But maybe
somebody will read the paper,

531
00:38:03,818 --> 00:38:05,085
and they'll know Bo's ours.

532
00:38:05,119 --> 00:38:07,454
I don't care
what anyone thinks Bo did

533
00:38:07,488 --> 00:38:09,323
or did not do in that store.

534
00:38:09,356 --> 00:38:12,259
They took my child,
and I need him back.

535
00:38:14,395 --> 00:38:16,363
Hello? Mr. Huff!

536
00:38:17,297 --> 00:38:19,768
Yes, yes, yes. I'll get Mamie.

537
00:38:19,801 --> 00:38:21,368
Sounds like he has good news.

538
00:38:22,804 --> 00:38:24,071
Mr. Huff?

539
00:38:25,038 --> 00:38:26,775
He wrote back?

540
00:38:26,808 --> 00:38:28,643
The governor wants to talk
to Mr. Huff

541
00:38:28,676 --> 00:38:30,210
about what happened to Bo.

542
00:38:30,244 --> 00:38:31,245
Thank you.

543
00:38:31,278 --> 00:38:33,247
Thank you for the update,
Mr. Huff.

544
00:38:34,816 --> 00:38:37,284
Okay. I'll be in touch.

545
00:38:53,868 --> 00:38:55,302
A reporter called me.

546
00:38:58,305 --> 00:39:00,474
He didn't wanna
tell you himself.

547
00:39:06,346 --> 00:39:08,917
Bo's body was found
in a river.

548
00:39:08,949 --> 00:39:11,251
Preacher just identified him
to the sheriff.

549
00:39:11,285 --> 00:39:15,956
He... He recognized the ring
Bo was wearing.

550
00:39:20,427 --> 00:39:22,429
I'm so sorry, Mamie.

551
00:39:24,031 --> 00:39:25,600
He's...

552
00:39:26,500 --> 00:39:27,769
He's dead.

553
00:40:16,551 --> 00:40:19,219
<i>This is</i>
<i>a breaking news bulletin.</i>

554
00:40:20,020 --> 00:40:21,321

558
00:40:30,130 --> 00:40:32,534
<i>Till, a Negro boy</i>
<i>from Chicago, was kidnapped</i>

559
00:40:32,567 --> 00:40:35,068
<i>while visiting relatives</i>
<i>in Money, Mississippi.</i>

560
00:40:35,102 --> 00:40:36,538
<i>Again, that breaking news.</i>

561
00:40:36,571 --> 00:40:39,339
<i>The body of Emmett Louis Till</i>

562
00:40:39,373 --> 00:40:40,942
<i>We'll have details ahead...</i>

563
00:40:40,975 --> 00:40:42,309
<i>...and J.W. Milam</i>

564
00:40:42,342 --> 00:40:44,244

565
00:40:44,278 --> 00:40:45,914

567

<i>for the murder of Till.</i>

568
00:40:49,751 --> 00:40:54,556
<i>We have proved</i>

569
00:40:54,589 --> 00:40:57,090
<i>that the body found</i>

570
00:40:57,124 --> 00:40:58,660

571
00:40:58,693 --> 00:41:01,094
<i>We proved</i>

572
00:41:01,128 --> 00:41:02,329
<i>...this lynching</i>

573
00:41:02,362 --> 00:41:04,197
<i>that the state of Mississippi</i>
<i>has decided</i>

574
00:41:04,231 --> 00:41:06,133
<i>to maintain</i>
<i>this White supremacy</i>

575
00:41:06,166 --> 00:41:08,636
<i>by murdering children.</i>

576
00:41:10,070 --> 00:41:12,439
<i>Look, it was because</i>
<i>he was a boy,</i>

577
00:41:12,472 --> 00:41:14,676
<i>that's why they went there.</i>

578
00:41:14,709 --> 00:41:17,912
<i>They had to prove</i>
<i>that they were superior.</i>

579
00:41:17,946 --> 00:41:19,413
<i>They had to prove it</i>

580
00:41:19,446 --> 00:41:23,383
<i>by taking away</i>
<i>a 14-year-old boy.</i>

581
00:41:23,417 --> 00:41:24,886
Mamie, you need
to eat something.

582
00:41:24,919 --> 00:41:27,187
<i>The killers of the boy</i>
<i>felt free to lynch him</i>

583
00:41:27,220 --> 00:41:28,388

584
00:41:28,422 --> 00:41:29,591

585
00:41:29,624 --> 00:41:32,660
<i>...no restraining influence</i>

586
00:41:33,460 --> 00:41:34,361
<i>Hate.</i>

587
00:41:35,095 --> 00:41:36,664
<i>It's like a virus in the blood</i>

588
00:41:36,698 --> 00:41:38,165
<i>of the Mississippians.</i>

589
00:41:38,198 --> 00:41:39,901
<i>They can't help it.</i>

590
00:41:39,934 --> 00:41:41,401
<i>That was Roy Wilkins...</i>

591
00:41:41,435 --> 00:41:44,338
<i>- ...the executive director</i>

592
00:41:44,371 --> 00:41:45,673
You mind
if I speak with Mamie?

593
00:41:45,707 --> 00:41:47,207

Mamie?

600
00:41:59,286 --> 00:42:00,153
<i>Negro leaders are calling</i>

Uh...

604
00:42:39,927 --> 00:42:43,397
-My sincere condolences...
-Stop.

605
00:42:44,866 --> 00:42:45,867
I can't.

606
00:42:50,470 --> 00:42:52,740
I need Bo's body
sent back here.

607
00:42:54,341 --> 00:42:56,309
I can't have him buried
in Mississippi.

608
00:42:56,343 --> 00:42:58,546
Mississippi won't make
that deal with you.

609
00:42:58,579 --> 00:42:59,580
Then make them.

610
00:43:02,349 --> 00:43:06,020
I'm sure Mr. Huff
can get Mayor Daley

611
00:43:06,054 --> 00:43:07,922
or the governor
to talk to somebody.

612
00:43:10,323 --> 00:43:11,491
Those people in Mississippi

613
00:43:11,526 --> 00:43:13,895
are trying to dump Bo
in the ground

614
00:43:13,928 --> 00:43:15,897
like he's just another body.

615
00:43:15,930 --> 00:43:17,297
He is my baby.

616
00:43:19,399 --> 00:43:20,802
I need to see him.

617
00:43:29,209 --> 00:43:30,712
I'll speak with Mr. Huff.

618
00:43:30,745 --> 00:43:31,713
Thank you.

619
00:43:42,422 --> 00:43:44,357
You know...

620
00:43:46,493 --> 00:43:49,296
Mamie, you have the public's
attention right now.

621
00:43:52,133 --> 00:43:53,400
And, uh,

622
00:43:54,669 --> 00:43:57,171
it would be in
a politician's best interest

623
00:43:57,205 --> 00:43:59,272
to help you
during an election year.

624
00:44:02,309 --> 00:44:04,645
There's an opportunity in that.

625
00:44:10,952 --> 00:44:12,987
Uh...

626
00:44:13,020 --> 00:44:17,959
Some organizers and executive
members of the NAACP

627
00:44:17,992 --> 00:44:20,828
have been speaking
with the justice department

628
00:44:20,862 --> 00:44:22,196
about creating legislation

629
00:44:22,230 --> 00:44:24,766
that would make lynching
a federal crime.

630
00:44:27,535 --> 00:44:30,571
What happened to Reverend Lee
was a lynching.

631
00:44:31,471 --> 00:44:34,307
Lamar Smith. A lynching.

632
00:44:36,944 --> 00:44:37,845
-Emmett...
-I...

633
00:44:39,279 --> 00:44:41,481
uh...

634
00:44:42,250 --> 00:44:45,820
We have an opportunity

635
00:44:45,853 --> 00:44:50,323
to use this moment to help us
pass this legislation.

636
00:44:50,357 --> 00:44:52,894
Might even help you get
an indictment.

637
00:44:52,927 --> 00:44:54,162
Maybe even a conviction.

638
00:44:54,195 --> 00:44:57,632
I can't think about that
right now.

639
00:44:57,665 --> 00:45:00,935
I just need Bo's body
sent back here.

640
00:45:00,968 --> 00:45:04,705
Well, the public's paying
attention right now, Mamie.

641
00:45:05,973 --> 00:45:08,308
See, this doesn't just have
to be about Emmett.

642
00:45:08,341 --> 00:45:11,012
Mr. Mooty, my son is dead!

643
00:45:26,426 --> 00:45:30,064
Make sure
Mr. Huff handles this today.

644
00:45:36,336 --> 00:45:37,672
Yes, ma'am.

645
00:46:28,656 --> 00:46:32,960
Rayfield's ready to
take us to the train station.

646
00:46:37,765 --> 00:46:41,202
I, uh, got you a wheelchair.

647
00:46:41,235 --> 00:46:42,703
You know, just in case.

648
00:46:44,038 --> 00:46:45,606
I don't want you falling down.

649
00:46:52,613 --> 00:46:54,048
Preacher called again.

650
00:46:54,081 --> 00:46:57,718
He keeps trying
to apologize to you, Mamie.

651
00:47:01,622 --> 00:47:02,890
Aunty Lizzie's coming up here.

652
00:47:02,924 --> 00:47:06,060
He has to stay behind
to finish working the fields

653
00:47:06,093 --> 00:47:08,029
and talk to the prosecutor.

654
00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:21,142
I keep asking myself...

655
00:47:24,679 --> 00:47:26,514
"Why is this happening?

656
00:47:30,885 --> 00:47:33,654
"Why did he take my child
from me?

657
00:47:40,761 --> 00:47:43,064
"What am I
supposed to do now?"

658
00:47:52,740 --> 00:47:55,609
Yeah. I have to say goodbye
to Mama.

659
00:48:09,156 --> 00:48:10,157
Mama.

660
00:48:35,416 --> 00:48:37,585
I'm the one who told him
to go down there.

661
00:48:40,588 --> 00:48:42,823
I wanted him to go down there.

662
00:48:48,095 --> 00:48:49,764
I told him to go down.

663
00:48:52,967 --> 00:48:55,669
I told him to go down there.

664
00:49:43,184 --> 00:49:45,653
All right. Get that.

665
00:50:09,578 --> 00:50:11,212
Oh, my God!

666
00:50:12,514 --> 00:50:14,815
My boy!

667
00:50:14,849 --> 00:50:18,652
My boy! My only child!

668
00:50:18,686 --> 00:50:21,021
My only boy!

669
00:50:23,090 --> 00:50:27,194
Oh, my Lord!
Get him out of that box!

670
00:50:28,563 --> 00:50:31,566
Get him out of the box!

671
00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:35,002
Get him out of the box!
He can't breathe!

672
00:50:36,303 --> 00:50:39,073
He can't breathe. My Lord!

673
00:50:41,175 --> 00:50:44,145
Oh, Lord, have mercy!

674
00:50:45,179 --> 00:50:46,515
Help me!

675
00:50:48,617 --> 00:50:51,418
Oh, my God!

676
00:50:53,387 --> 00:50:56,757
Oh, Lord, have mercy!

677
00:50:57,526 --> 00:51:00,661
Show me
what you want me to do.

678
00:51:00,694 --> 00:51:03,831
Oh, Lord, show me
what you want me to do

679
00:51:03,864 --> 00:51:06,500
and make me able to do it!

680
00:51:06,535 --> 00:51:08,335
My Lord!

681
00:51:19,614 --> 00:51:20,981
I need to prepare you.

682
00:51:26,220 --> 00:51:27,721
Remove the sheet.

683
00:51:37,464 --> 00:51:40,701
Oh, God.

684
00:51:53,881 --> 00:51:56,317
Everyone, leave us.

685
00:55:19,353 --> 00:55:20,722
How long
will it take you

686
00:55:20,755 --> 00:55:22,489
to turn the body over to us?

687
00:55:22,524 --> 00:55:23,758
Figure out the next step.

688
00:55:23,792 --> 00:55:25,359
Talk to the church.

689
00:55:25,392 --> 00:55:29,029
Gene, can you go back
to my place

690
00:55:29,062 --> 00:55:31,365
and bring back
Emmett's black suit?

691
00:55:31,398 --> 00:55:33,967
The one he wore
last Christmas.

692
00:55:34,001 --> 00:55:35,870
Mama can tell you
exactly where it is.

693
00:55:35,904 --> 00:55:37,806
And make sure
to get my black dress

694
00:55:37,839 --> 00:55:39,541
that Bo would approve of.

695
00:55:39,574 --> 00:55:41,275
And his matching tie.

696
00:55:43,043 --> 00:55:44,913
Emmett loved this suit.

697
00:55:44,945 --> 00:55:46,581
It's how he'd like to be seen.

698
00:55:48,348 --> 00:55:49,349
Seen?

699
00:55:50,685 --> 00:55:53,987
Mamie, Bo's in no kind of
shape to be seen by anybody.

700
00:55:54,021 --> 00:55:57,090
No, he's in just
the right shape.

701
00:55:57,124 --> 00:56:01,295
The whole world has to see
what happened to my son.

702
00:56:01,328 --> 00:56:04,899
Mrs. Bradley, can I
at least fix him up a bit?

703
00:56:04,933 --> 00:56:05,999
Just to make him more...

704
00:56:06,033 --> 00:56:08,368
No one's going to believe
what I just saw.

705
00:56:08,670 --> 00:56:09,503
No.

706
00:56:09,537 --> 00:56:12,339
They have to see it
for themselves.

707
00:56:40,367 --> 00:56:42,035
Ms. Bradley,
what would you like to say

708
00:56:42,069 --> 00:56:43,103
to the men who did this?

709
00:56:43,136 --> 00:56:44,706
What's that smell?

710
00:56:46,708 --> 00:56:50,512
That smell is my son's body.

711
00:56:50,545 --> 00:56:54,549
He came home to me
reeking of racial hatred.

712
00:56:54,582 --> 00:56:56,518
His face was bludgeoned.

713
00:56:56,551 --> 00:56:58,620
His teeth are gone.

714
00:56:58,653 --> 00:57:00,120
He was shot in the head.

715
00:57:00,989 --> 00:57:04,692
And now I want America
to bear witness.

716
00:57:08,763 --> 00:57:10,163
Come with me, please.

717
00:57:11,966 --> 00:57:13,001
Right here, Ms. Bradley.

718
00:57:13,033 --> 00:57:14,401
Ms. Bradley, right here.

719
00:57:14,434 --> 00:57:15,703
Do you have a
message for the perpetrators?

720
00:57:15,737 --> 00:57:17,739
Will there be
a service, Ms. Bradley?

721
00:57:20,975 --> 00:57:23,511
Gene, please come be with me.

732
00:58:14,194 --> 00:58:15,495

734
00:58:17,732 --> 00:58:19,000

00:58:22,202 --> 00:58:23,571
<i>I support her.</i>

738
00:58:23,605 --> 00:58:26,040
<i>It is my</i>

739
00:58:26,074 --> 00:58:27,542

740
00:58:27,575 --> 00:58:29,978

743
00:58:34,749 --> 00:58:35,717

746
00:58:39,754 --> 00:58:41,355

747
00:58:41,388 --> 00:58:43,390
<i>I won't rest</i>

748
00:58:43,423 --> 00:58:46,661

749
00:58:46,694 --> 00:58:48,029

Mamie...

754
00:59:37,679 --> 00:59:39,346
Aunty Lizzie.

755
00:59:42,617 --> 00:59:46,120
Simmy and Maurice stayed back
with their daddy.

756
00:59:46,154 --> 00:59:48,288
It was probably too much.

757
00:59:51,659 --> 00:59:52,827
I'm so sorry.

758
00:59:55,395 --> 00:59:59,332
When those men came, I tried.

759
01:00:01,069 --> 01:00:03,503
We all tried.

760
01:00:05,139 --> 01:00:06,674
I ain't going back, Mamie.

761
01:00:07,240 --> 01:00:09,544
I packed my stuff up,

762
01:00:09,577 --> 01:00:11,612
and I'm staying here for good.

763
01:00:12,513 --> 01:00:14,347
Preacher and the boys
will join me.

764
01:00:17,919 --> 01:00:19,286
I can't look, Mamie.

765
01:00:27,662 --> 01:00:28,663

My child is dead,

792
01:03:30,477 --> 01:03:32,613
and she is going to be fine.

793
01:03:35,216 --> 01:03:39,419
Carolyn Bryant
is going to be fine.

794
01:03:46,727 --> 01:03:48,362
You know,
to get a murder indictment

795
01:03:48,396 --> 01:03:51,132
on two White men
in Mississippi is not easy.

796
01:03:55,536 --> 01:03:58,973
You did that, Mamie.

797
01:04:03,878 --> 01:04:04,879
Now...

798
01:04:08,582 --> 01:04:10,151
Their defense...

799
01:04:12,520 --> 01:04:14,188
is going to try
to create doubt

800
01:04:14,221 --> 01:04:16,357
about the body being Emmett's.

801
01:04:16,390 --> 01:04:18,592
There's no body,
there's no murder conviction,

802
01:04:18,626 --> 01:04:22,163
and Bryant and Milam will only
face kidnapping charges.

803
01:04:27,735 --> 01:04:30,004
You know your child
better than anyone.

804
01:04:33,240 --> 01:04:35,076
You saw the body soon after.

805
01:04:37,912 --> 01:04:42,283
There is no testimony
like a mother's.

806
01:05:20,488 --> 01:05:21,956
Aren't we going
to your mama's tonight?

807
01:05:25,526 --> 01:05:27,728
I need to go to Mississippi
for the trial.

808
01:05:29,230 --> 01:05:32,666
I can testify that it was
Bo's body found in the river.

809
01:05:46,180 --> 01:05:47,148
When do you want us to go?

810
01:05:50,551 --> 01:05:52,486
Gene, I have to go without you.

811
01:05:52,521 --> 01:05:55,222
-What?
-Mr. Mooty has arranged for me
to meet some people

812
01:05:55,256 --> 01:05:56,624
-down there.
-If you're going
to Mississippi,

813
01:05:56,657 --> 01:05:57,958
-I'm going with you.
-Mr. Huff and Mr. Mooty

814
01:05:57,992 --> 01:05:59,326
don't think that's a good idea,

815
01:05:59,360 --> 01:06:01,195
-and I agree with them.
-I don't care what they think!

816
01:06:03,497 --> 01:06:04,533
They keep telling us

817
01:06:04,565 --> 01:06:05,866
what to do
and who you can talk to.

818
01:06:05,900 --> 01:06:08,602
And I go along with it
because I lost Bo too.

819
01:06:10,671 --> 01:06:12,073
I would do anything for him.

820
01:06:17,611 --> 01:06:18,746
You tell me, Mamie.

821
01:06:19,680 --> 01:06:22,183
How is risking your life
gonna help Bo?

822
01:06:32,159 --> 01:06:34,829
This is what they're writing
about me down there.

823
01:06:34,862 --> 01:06:37,198
They're making me out to be
some kind of jezebel.

824
01:06:37,231 --> 01:06:38,666
Two reporters called to ask

825
01:06:38,699 --> 01:06:41,035
about my ex-husbands
and about you.

826
01:06:42,169 --> 01:06:43,771
Mr. Huff was right.

827
01:06:43,804 --> 01:06:45,873
I'm on trial like the people
who killed Bo.

828
01:06:45,906 --> 01:06:48,809
Jurors will be watching me,
and reading these stories

829
01:06:48,843 --> 01:06:51,612
when they decide if the men
who murdered my son go free.

830
01:06:51,645 --> 01:06:54,014
I have to protect my image

831
01:06:55,116 --> 01:06:57,284
if it can help get justice
for Bo.

832
01:07:00,955 --> 01:07:03,057
I should be going with you,
Mamie.

833
01:07:03,090 --> 01:07:06,660
I need you to be there for me
in a different way right now.

834
01:07:11,566 --> 01:07:12,800
You're not gonna change
your mind?

835
01:07:15,302 --> 01:07:16,170
You know me well enough

836
01:07:16,203 --> 01:07:18,272
to answer that question
for yourself.

837
01:07:44,198 --> 01:07:46,500
<i>Not since</i>
<i>the Tallahatchie River flooded</i>

838
01:07:46,535 --> 01:07:47,968
<i>some 20 or 30 years ago</i>

839
01:07:48,002 --> 01:07:52,039
<i>that the townspeople had more</i>
<i>to talk about than this trial.</i>

840
01:07:52,072 --> 01:07:56,076
<i>I can't understand</i>
<i>how a civilized mother</i>

841
01:07:56,110 --> 01:08:01,048
<i>could put a dead body of</i>
<i>her child on public display!</i>

842
01:08:01,081 --> 01:08:05,419
<i>I think that this is</i>
<i>a result of the NAACP</i>

843
01:08:05,452 --> 01:08:07,054
<i>trying to make</i>
<i>something big...</i>

844
01:08:07,087 --> 01:08:08,989
<i>...out of just an ordinary</i>

845
01:08:09,023 --> 01:08:11,358
<i>criminal affair</i>
<i>in Mississippi.</i>

846
01:08:21,368 --> 01:08:22,403
You're not going.

847
01:08:23,370 --> 01:08:25,105
Mamie, it's too dangerous

848
01:08:25,139 --> 01:08:27,107
for you to go down
to Mississippi right now.

849
01:08:28,008 --> 01:08:30,044
I heard the sheriffs
are passing along

850
01:08:30,077 --> 01:08:32,079
Negro license plate numbers
to the Klan members.

851
01:08:32,112 --> 01:08:34,815
Mr. Huff and Mr. Mooty
already have plans

852
01:08:34,848 --> 01:08:36,518
for me to safely travel.

853
01:08:36,551 --> 01:08:38,452
I'll fly to Memphis first.

854
01:08:38,485 --> 01:08:40,689
And then,
some people from the NAACP

855
01:08:40,721 --> 01:08:42,356
are going to drive me
to Clarksdale.

856
01:08:42,389 --> 01:08:45,059
And then, their field
secretary will pick me up

857
01:08:45,092 --> 01:08:47,094
and drive me
to someone's house

858
01:08:47,127 --> 01:08:48,762
in a place called Mound Bayou.

859
01:08:48,796 --> 01:08:50,731
You want to go alone?

860
01:08:50,764 --> 01:08:53,635
I'm trying to be strong
for Bo.

861
01:08:53,668 --> 01:08:55,502
What are you gonna do
down there?

862
01:08:56,538 --> 01:08:58,172
Something you can't.

863
01:09:04,245 --> 01:09:07,915
If my testimony can help
in any way,

864
01:09:08,550 --> 01:09:09,783
I have to go.

865
01:09:10,818 --> 01:09:13,387
I have to be there
for my child.

866
01:09:15,590 --> 01:09:17,324
And what about my child?

867
01:09:25,499 --> 01:09:26,767
I'm goin' with ya.

868
01:09:29,069 --> 01:09:31,305
I know this is not
what we agreed on,

869
01:09:31,338 --> 01:09:33,807
but it's better for me
to go down there with her

870
01:09:33,841 --> 01:09:35,442
than for her
to be there alone.

871
01:09:40,981 --> 01:09:43,951
You don't have to worry.
I'mma be there with you.

872
01:09:45,152 --> 01:09:46,153
I promise.

873
01:09:47,855 --> 01:09:50,558
I don't only need you

874
01:09:58,465 --> 01:10:01,135

01:10:59,126 --> 01:11:00,928
It's a all-Negro town.

885
01:11:02,396 --> 01:11:05,933
We run all our own businesses
and all our own schools.

886
01:11:07,067 --> 01:11:08,603
All the Negroes
attending the trial

887
01:11:08,636 --> 01:11:10,605
will be staying here.

888
01:11:10,638 --> 01:11:12,172
This is the safest place
for 'em.

889
01:11:14,709 --> 01:11:16,243
Dr. Howard
created the Regional Council

890
01:11:16,276 --> 01:11:18,580
for Negro Leadership
here in Mound Bayou.

891
01:11:18,613 --> 01:11:22,015
He's also the chief surgeon
at the Taborian Hospital.

892
01:11:22,049 --> 01:11:23,417
He built
a lot of businesses here,

893
01:11:23,450 --> 01:11:26,053
including a really successful
life insurance company.

894
01:11:26,721 --> 01:11:28,656
That's how I met him.

895
01:11:28,690 --> 01:11:30,357
He gave me my first job.

896
01:11:31,559 --> 01:11:36,330
<i>♪ Going home one day</i>
<i>and tell my story ♪</i>

897
01:11:36,363 --> 01:11:41,301

902
01:12:02,055 --> 01:12:04,826
Thank you
for driving us, Mr. Evers.

903
01:12:04,859 --> 01:12:07,227
Please, ma'am, call me Medgar.

904
01:12:09,463 --> 01:12:10,565
Mrs. Bradley?

905
01:12:12,232 --> 01:12:15,202
Those pictures of your son
in the magazine...

906
01:12:17,672 --> 01:12:19,039
changed people's lives.

907
01:12:20,809 --> 01:12:24,144
My wife,
she's here with our son.

908
01:12:25,946 --> 01:12:27,147
And we're both helping
with some of

909
01:12:27,181 --> 01:12:29,149
the investigation work
for the trial.

910
01:12:30,951 --> 01:12:32,252
Now, I promise you...

911
01:12:34,321 --> 01:12:35,557
we are doing everything we can

912
01:12:35,590 --> 01:12:37,725
to get some sort of justice
for Emmett Till.

913
01:12:52,072 --> 01:12:55,075
We call Dr. Howard's house
"The Black Command Center."

914
01:12:55,108 --> 01:12:56,778
Reporters
from all the colored press

915
01:12:56,811 --> 01:12:58,546
work out of here
during the trial.

916
01:12:58,580 --> 01:12:59,514
They also help with some of

917
01:12:59,547 --> 01:13:01,148
the investigation work
for the trial.

918
01:13:01,181 --> 01:13:03,885
And what kind of investigation
y'all are gonna be doing?

919
01:13:03,918 --> 01:13:05,018
We're looking
for witnesses

920
01:13:05,052 --> 01:13:06,855
who'll be brave enough
to come to trial.

921
01:13:10,057 --> 01:13:12,861
- Right here.
- Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

922
01:13:12,894 --> 01:13:14,261
This here is,
uh, Ms. Murdock.

923
01:13:14,294 --> 01:13:16,230
Ms. Bradley.

924
01:13:16,263 --> 01:13:18,065
Ms. Turner. Mr. Booker.

925
01:13:18,098 --> 01:13:20,167
Pleased to meet you, ma'am.

926
01:13:20,200 --> 01:13:21,903
This here
is my son, Darrell.

927
01:13:21,936 --> 01:13:23,437
And my wife, Myrlie.

928
01:13:23,470 --> 01:13:26,240
It's an honor to meet you,
Mrs. Bradley.

929
01:13:26,741 --> 01:13:27,675
Mr. Carthan.

930
01:13:29,677 --> 01:13:30,645
Hey, you don't mind?

931
01:13:31,311 --> 01:13:33,480
Over here is Amzie Moore.

932
01:13:33,515 --> 01:13:34,516
He's the president

933
01:13:34,549 --> 01:13:36,985
of the Regional Council
for Negro Leadership.

934
01:13:37,017 --> 01:13:39,954
And I am Dr. Theodore Howard.

935
01:13:39,988 --> 01:13:43,525
Welcome to Mound Bayou,
Mrs. Bradley.

936
01:13:44,993 --> 01:13:47,227
- Mr. Carthan.
- Sir.

937
01:13:47,261 --> 01:13:51,298
Let me just say that
we are so...

938
01:13:52,466 --> 01:13:55,068
honored to have you
here with us.

939
01:13:55,970 --> 01:13:57,005
Thank you.

940
01:13:57,037 --> 01:13:58,238
Thank you.

941
01:13:59,807 --> 01:14:02,042
Now, what are you drinking?

942
01:14:05,345 --> 01:14:06,748
Not a lot of people
would use

943
01:14:06,781 --> 01:14:08,616
their money the way you do.

944
01:14:08,650 --> 01:14:10,518
Well, we need money

945
01:14:10,552 --> 01:14:13,287
for the freedom fight
that we're in now.

946
01:14:14,656 --> 01:14:15,757
We need money...

947
01:14:17,057 --> 01:14:20,093
to protect Negroes who are...

948
01:14:20,828 --> 01:14:22,262
simply trying to exercise

949
01:14:22,296 --> 01:14:24,197
their constitutional right
to vote,

950
01:14:24,231 --> 01:14:27,035
to speak at trial.

951
01:14:30,370 --> 01:14:33,140
I had a really good life
in Chicago

952
01:14:33,173 --> 01:14:34,776
before they took Bo from me.

953
01:14:37,311 --> 01:14:38,846
I never thought much
about the world

954
01:14:38,880 --> 01:14:40,748
outside of just me and Bo,

955
01:14:41,983 --> 01:14:44,184
my job, my family, my friends.

956
01:14:48,422 --> 01:14:50,290
Mrs. Bradley,
have you thought about, um,

957
01:14:50,324 --> 01:14:52,092
what you're going to do
after the trial?

958
01:14:53,728 --> 01:14:55,262
After the trial?

959
01:14:55,295 --> 01:14:57,031
I'm sure you've considered

960
01:14:57,065 --> 01:14:59,299
continuing your work
with the NAACP.

961
01:14:59,333 --> 01:15:02,269
Or with our Regional Council,
right here.

962
01:15:02,302 --> 01:15:06,774
Your story... speaks
to the urgency of Negro rights

963
01:15:06,808 --> 01:15:10,745
more than anything
this country has ever heard.

964
01:15:10,778 --> 01:15:12,179
I've been sharing my story

965
01:15:12,212 --> 01:15:16,651
because I want those two men
to pay for what they did.

966
01:15:16,684 --> 01:15:18,385
And I do too.

967
01:15:18,418 --> 01:15:22,023
But I do not believe
that justice will be rendered

968
01:15:22,056 --> 01:15:25,693
by 12 jurors
who look exactly like

969
01:15:25,727 --> 01:15:29,463
the two so-called men
who are on trial.

970
01:15:32,934 --> 01:15:36,269
And our fight, and your story,

971
01:15:37,705 --> 01:15:43,611
must continue and will not end
with one single verdict.

972
01:15:48,816 --> 01:15:50,852
Mrs. Bradley.

973
01:17:05,159 --> 01:17:06,527
That's the mother!

974
01:17:07,227 --> 01:17:08,629
Come on, get out the way.

975
01:17:08,663 --> 01:17:10,765
Mrs. Bradley,
why are you here?

976
01:17:10,798 --> 01:17:12,399
- Ms. Bradley.
- Ms. Bradley!

977
01:17:12,432 --> 01:17:13,768
Come on,
say something!

978
01:17:13,801 --> 01:17:15,368
- Will you testify?
- Come on!

979
01:17:15,402 --> 01:17:16,604
- You gotta give us something.
- Mrs. Bradley.

980
01:17:16,637 --> 01:17:17,872
Mamie?

981
01:17:17,905 --> 01:17:18,840
It's all right, Daddy.

982
01:17:21,676 --> 01:17:23,511
I am here to confirm...

983
01:17:27,014 --> 01:17:29,584
What's wrong with you?

984
01:17:30,317 --> 01:17:31,786
Let's get inside.
Come on.

985
01:17:44,632 --> 01:17:45,633
No.

986
01:17:59,847 --> 01:18:01,281
How dare you?

987
01:18:06,319 --> 01:18:07,588
It's all right, Mamie.

988
01:18:18,533 --> 01:18:19,534
Go on!

989
01:18:39,253 --> 01:18:40,453
Amzie.

990
01:18:44,391 --> 01:18:47,128
Mrs. Bradley, I'd like you
to meet Ruby Hurley.

991
01:18:47,161 --> 01:18:48,629
She's also a part of our team.

992
01:18:48,663 --> 01:18:51,199
It's truly an honor
to meet you, Mrs. Bradley.

993
01:18:51,232 --> 01:18:53,466
Thank you.

994
01:18:53,500 --> 01:18:54,869
Thank you,
it's a pleasure to meet you.

995
01:18:54,902 --> 01:18:55,903
My pleasure.

996
01:18:55,937 --> 01:18:57,305
- We'll be with you, ma'am.
- Thank you.

997
01:18:57,337 --> 01:18:58,505
- Right this way.
- Thank you.

998
01:18:58,539 --> 01:19:00,440
- Thank you.
- You're welcome, of course.

999
01:19:03,945 --> 01:19:04,879
Hello, niggers!

1000
01:19:06,180 --> 01:19:08,216
I got about eight seats
down there

1001
01:19:08,249 --> 01:19:10,084
for you
and your nigger reporters.

1002
01:19:10,885 --> 01:19:12,019
Rest of you can stand.

1003
01:19:13,020 --> 01:19:13,955
You Mamie?

1004
01:19:16,924 --> 01:19:18,125
What's this?

1005
01:19:18,159 --> 01:19:20,493
That's a damn summons.

1006
01:19:20,528 --> 01:19:23,130
I thought you uppity niggers
could read.

1007
01:19:23,164 --> 01:19:25,933
Mamie?
Don't let him get to you.

1008
01:19:25,967 --> 01:19:26,934
Come on, now.

1009
01:19:27,969 --> 01:19:29,670
Ah, there's James Hicks.

1010
01:19:29,704 --> 01:19:31,873
We can go and sit with him
and the other reporters.

1011
01:19:32,974 --> 01:19:35,042
Have you spoke
with the prosecution team?

1012
01:19:35,076 --> 01:19:37,278
Only once before,
on the phone.

1013
01:19:37,311 --> 01:19:38,679
It was brief.

1014
01:19:38,713 --> 01:19:41,315
Hopefully, this won't take
too long. Get together later.

1015
01:19:41,349 --> 01:19:43,217
- Mr. Smith.
- Yes.

1016
01:19:43,251 --> 01:19:44,886
Mrs. Bradley.

1017
01:19:44,919 --> 01:19:45,853
Mamie.

1018
01:19:51,259 --> 01:19:52,526
- Hmm.
- Come on.

1019
01:19:55,062 --> 01:19:56,764
All rise!

1020
01:19:56,797 --> 01:20:00,635
The Honorable Judge
Curtis Swango presiding.

1021
01:20:03,137 --> 01:20:04,171
Please be seated.

1022
01:20:08,142 --> 01:20:09,476
There will be
no pictures taken

1023
01:20:09,510 --> 01:20:11,579
during court proceedings.

1024
01:20:11,612 --> 01:20:16,717
Bailiff, have the jurors
come in and take a seat.

1025
01:20:16,751 --> 01:20:21,454
Also, get me a Coke sometime.
All right?

1026
01:20:39,340 --> 01:20:41,309
Your Honor,
the State has just learned

1027
01:20:41,342 --> 01:20:43,476
of the existence
of another witness

1028
01:20:43,511 --> 01:20:45,478
to the murder of Emmett Till.

1029
01:20:45,513 --> 01:20:47,381
The State requests a recess

1030
01:20:47,415 --> 01:20:49,183
in order to gather
the witness.

1031
01:20:50,584 --> 01:20:51,919
Objection, Your Honor!

1032
01:20:51,953 --> 01:20:55,156
Your Honor, this will only
delay proceedings. Come on.

1033
01:20:55,189 --> 01:20:56,924
Hmm.

1034
01:20:56,958 --> 01:20:58,225
Objection overruled.

1035
01:20:58,259 --> 01:21:00,895
It seems like
a reasonable request.

1036
01:21:01,696 --> 01:21:03,496
Thank you, Your Honor.

1037
01:21:03,531 --> 01:21:05,066
I'll give you
till tomorrow morning

1038
01:21:05,099 --> 01:21:07,234
to find your witness.

1039
01:21:11,739 --> 01:21:13,841
The court will have a recess.

1040
01:21:13,874 --> 01:21:17,411
We will resume at 9:00 a.m.
tomorrow morning.

1041
01:21:19,146 --> 01:21:20,548
Court dismissed!

1042
01:21:27,989 --> 01:21:30,992
Medgar,
take me to Money.

1043
01:21:33,427 --> 01:21:35,863
All right. Okay.

1044
01:22:28,883 --> 01:22:30,751
That's where
it happened?

1045
01:22:33,087 --> 01:22:34,121
Yes, ma'am.

1046
01:22:35,756 --> 01:22:39,126
The shop's been closed
since the day of the arrest.

1047
01:22:43,397 --> 01:22:45,066
Most of the patrons
were Negroes.

1048
01:25:37,771 --> 01:25:40,474
Your mama tells me
you're all moving up north

1049
01:25:40,507 --> 01:25:41,408
after the trial.

1050
01:25:43,077 --> 01:25:45,379
Daddy says
it's not gonna be safe.

1051
01:25:53,821 --> 01:25:55,356
Thank you.

1052
01:26:03,497 --> 01:26:04,832
We're sorry, ma'am.

1053
01:26:10,271 --> 01:26:11,205
We're so sorry.

1054
01:26:16,176 --> 01:26:19,046
You all didn't know
this was going to happen.

1055
01:26:21,815 --> 01:26:23,083
Come here.

1056
01:26:30,190 --> 01:26:31,358
It's okay.

1057
01:26:32,761 --> 01:26:34,028
Hmm.

1058
01:26:43,470 --> 01:26:45,072
Where's your daddy?

1059
01:27:12,366 --> 01:27:13,367
You gonna sit?

1060
01:27:17,772 --> 01:27:19,173
I saw your boys.

1061
01:27:22,209 --> 01:27:24,311
Was probably hard for them
to see you.

1062
01:27:30,384 --> 01:27:31,385
You gonna sit?

1063
01:27:43,897 --> 01:27:45,999
Did you have a shotgun
in your house

1064
01:27:46,033 --> 01:27:47,267
the night they took Bo?

1065
01:27:50,538 --> 01:27:54,843
I've been wanting to explain
to you what happened.

1066
01:27:54,875 --> 01:27:56,443
You told me that part.

1067
01:27:56,477 --> 01:27:58,045
White men came knocking

1068
01:27:58,078 --> 01:27:59,581
-on my door, Mamie.
-I know that part.

1069
01:27:59,614 --> 01:28:00,548
They had a gun.

1070
01:28:00,582 --> 01:28:02,216
You have a gun!

1071
01:28:05,352 --> 01:28:08,790
How long did you
stand there doing nothing

1072
01:28:08,823 --> 01:28:10,525
while they took my child?

1073
01:28:10,558 --> 01:28:11,358
If I'd have shot them,

1074
01:28:11,392 --> 01:28:14,128
they would've killed
all of mine!

1075
01:28:14,161 --> 01:28:17,164
It'd be hunting season
for every Negro in Money!

1076
01:28:20,635 --> 01:28:22,102
We have to live here, Mamie.

1077
01:28:23,838 --> 01:28:25,239
Bobo was with my boys

1078
01:28:25,272 --> 01:28:27,207
when he went to talk
to some White woman.

1079
01:28:27,241 --> 01:28:28,643
You understand
what that mean down here?

1080
01:28:28,676 --> 01:28:31,478
Don't you dare blame Bo
for what happened to him!

1081
01:28:31,513 --> 01:28:34,047
I don't blame him!

1082
01:28:45,092 --> 01:28:47,094
I had to make a choice
that night.

1083
01:28:47,896 --> 01:28:50,197
In a moment, I had to choose.

1084
01:28:52,634 --> 01:28:55,068
And you chose yours over mine.

1085
01:28:55,102 --> 01:28:59,239
It wasn't just two White men
with a gun that night.

1086
01:29:00,542 --> 01:29:04,311
It was every White man
who'd rather see a Negro dead

1087
01:29:04,344 --> 01:29:07,047
than breathin'
the same air as him.

1088
01:29:07,080 --> 01:29:09,983
Every sheriff,
every judge in this town

1089
01:29:10,017 --> 01:29:12,219
was at my door that night.

1090
01:29:12,252 --> 01:29:16,558
I was facin' a lot more
than two men with a gun.

1091
01:29:27,334 --> 01:29:29,537
He was my only child.

1092
01:29:40,915 --> 01:29:42,115
I know.

1093
01:29:59,466 --> 01:30:01,636
That's why you're moving
after the trial...

1094
01:30:03,838 --> 01:30:05,506
because you're going
to testify?

1095
01:30:09,409 --> 01:30:13,447
No Negro in Money has ever
spoken against a White man...

1096
01:30:15,482 --> 01:30:16,684
and lived.

1097
01:30:58,860 --> 01:30:59,994
That's the house.

1098
01:31:00,028 --> 01:31:02,229
If he runs,
make sure he doesn't get away.

1099
01:31:02,262 --> 01:31:03,665
Amzie, right here.

1100
01:31:12,472 --> 01:31:13,741
Hey! Not so loud.

1101
01:31:13,775 --> 01:31:14,842
You'll scare him off.

1102
01:31:18,980 --> 01:31:20,380
We told you
to leave Willie alone.

1103
01:31:20,414 --> 01:31:22,249
Let's have
a conversation inside.

1104
01:31:22,282 --> 01:31:24,052
He didn't see nothin'!

1105
01:31:24,084 --> 01:31:26,320
Come out or we're comin' in.

1106
01:31:26,353 --> 01:31:28,322
You gonna get the boy killed.

1107
01:31:31,960 --> 01:31:34,161
Hey! Hey!

1108
01:31:39,067 --> 01:31:40,334
Come on, come on!

1109
01:32:10,330 --> 01:32:11,431
We need
to keep him here

1110
01:32:11,465 --> 01:32:13,001
just in case
he runs off again.

1111
01:32:13,034 --> 01:32:15,369
I ain't gonna run.

1112
01:32:15,402 --> 01:32:17,572
I'll tell 'em
what I saw that night.

1113
01:32:17,605 --> 01:32:19,540
And what about
your grandparents?

1114
01:32:20,340 --> 01:32:21,375
Would you say that they heard

1115
01:32:21,408 --> 01:32:22,777
some sounds
comin' out the barn too?

1116
01:32:22,810 --> 01:32:26,014
No, no, I promised them I was
gonna keep them out of it.

1117
01:32:26,047 --> 01:32:27,515
We're gonna finance security

1118
01:32:27,548 --> 01:32:29,917
for your entire family
after they testify,

1119
01:32:29,951 --> 01:32:31,418
so don't you worry none, son.

1120
01:32:32,654 --> 01:32:33,655
All right?

1121
01:32:34,589 --> 01:32:36,490
<i>His name is Willie Reed,</i>

1122
01:32:36,524 --> 01:32:38,760
<i>a field hand for</i>
<i>J.W.'s brother.</i>

1123
01:32:39,961 --> 01:32:41,863
He's a witness
who lives on the farm

1124
01:32:41,896 --> 01:32:43,698
not too far from where he saw

1125
01:32:43,731 --> 01:32:45,566
J.W. and Roy Bryant

1126
01:32:45,600 --> 01:32:47,769
and several other men
take Emmett.

1127
01:32:47,802 --> 01:32:50,672
Now, Willie's family
also works for the Milams,

1128
01:32:50,705 --> 01:32:53,240
so they also heard
a lot of noise that night.

1129
01:32:53,273 --> 01:32:55,242
There were other men?

1130
01:32:57,111 --> 01:32:59,479
It pains me
to have to tell you this,

1131
01:32:59,514 --> 01:33:02,750
but there were some colored
men that were involved.

1132
01:33:06,154 --> 01:33:08,523
Colored men did this
to my boy?

1133
01:33:08,556 --> 01:33:10,390
Well, they work
for Milam and Bryant,

1134
01:33:10,424 --> 01:33:12,860
and found out Bryant
had 'em paid to skip town.

1135
01:33:13,795 --> 01:33:14,796
What...

1136
01:33:19,000 --> 01:33:21,501
I can fix that for you.

1137
01:33:29,744 --> 01:33:32,747
It means a lot,

1138
01:33:34,214 --> 01:33:35,516
what you're doing.

1139
01:33:40,320 --> 01:33:41,723
Thank you.

1140
01:33:44,692 --> 01:33:45,827
Thank you.

1141
01:33:46,928 --> 01:33:48,261
It's the right thing to do.

1142
01:33:58,305 --> 01:33:59,874
Go ahead
and put these on.

1143
01:34:30,838 --> 01:34:33,241
It's difficult for me
to fall asleep

1144
01:34:33,273 --> 01:34:34,809
before Medgar gets home.

1145
01:34:38,780 --> 01:34:39,981
I've wanted to meet you.

1146
01:34:41,348 --> 01:34:43,483
What you did
with those photographs...

1147
01:34:43,518 --> 01:34:46,654
What you're doin' now,
it's, um...

1148
01:34:46,687 --> 01:34:49,389
It's nothing a mother
wouldn't do for her child.

1149
01:34:51,926 --> 01:34:52,927
Hmm.

1150
01:34:54,262 --> 01:34:55,863
How old's your son?

1151
01:34:55,897 --> 01:34:58,498
Two.

1152
01:35:00,701 --> 01:35:02,369
We almost didn't take him
and his sister

1153
01:35:02,402 --> 01:35:04,337
with us from Jackson, but I...

1154
01:35:05,740 --> 01:35:07,275
I'm trying to keep
the family together

1155
01:35:07,307 --> 01:35:09,010
as much as possible
these days.

1156
01:35:12,647 --> 01:35:14,282
I'm sure you heard
about what happened

1157
01:35:14,314 --> 01:35:16,383
to our friends Lamar Smith
and Reverend Lee.

1158
01:35:16,416 --> 01:35:18,619
Yes, I have.

1159
01:35:19,720 --> 01:35:21,589
Medgar and I worked closely
with 'em.

1160
01:35:23,057 --> 01:35:25,259
We did good work.

1161
01:35:25,293 --> 01:35:26,694
We got a lot of Negroes
registered to vote

1162
01:35:26,727 --> 01:35:28,796
for the first time
in Mississippi,

1163
01:35:30,097 --> 01:35:33,067
and that created the biggest
targets on our backs.

1164
01:35:42,543 --> 01:35:45,079
I, um...

1165
01:35:48,049 --> 01:35:51,418
I believe in the work
we're doin' for our people.

1166
01:35:52,320 --> 01:35:53,554
I do.

1167
01:35:56,524 --> 01:35:58,893
But I don't want my children
to have to live in fear.

1168
01:36:01,128 --> 01:36:02,296
I have enough fear
for all of us

1169
01:36:02,330 --> 01:36:04,364
every time I wait for Medgar
to get home.

1170
01:36:09,170 --> 01:36:10,738
Emmett just wanted
to go on vacation

1171
01:36:10,771 --> 01:36:12,874
and have fun with his cousins.

1172
01:36:14,709 --> 01:36:17,444
He never thought
anything would happen to him.

1173
01:36:18,546 --> 01:36:24,484
He knew how different
things were down here,

1174
01:36:24,518 --> 01:36:29,056
but I never raised him
to have any fear growing up.

1175
01:36:31,391 --> 01:36:33,995
I wanted him to be a boy.

1176
01:36:34,028 --> 01:36:36,964
And to not have his childhood
taken away from him.

1177
01:36:40,001 --> 01:36:41,769
But it happened anyway.

1178
01:37:02,223 --> 01:37:06,493
We do the best we can.

1179
01:37:36,057 --> 01:37:37,124
Do you know Mr. Bryant?

1180
01:37:41,195 --> 01:37:42,830
He owns
the meat market.

1181
01:37:42,863 --> 01:37:43,798
Hmm.

1182
01:37:43,831 --> 01:37:46,167
Then you know Mr. Milam,
do ya?

1183
01:37:49,203 --> 01:37:50,538
Not by name.

1184
01:37:52,173 --> 01:37:53,908
But I know him.

1185
01:37:53,941 --> 01:37:55,109
How do you know him?

1186
01:37:57,745 --> 01:37:59,580
He showed up
at my door,

1187
01:38:00,982 --> 01:38:03,084
standing there
with a flashlight in one hand

1188
01:38:03,117 --> 01:38:04,518
and a pistol in the other.

1189
01:38:06,687 --> 01:38:08,488
And what happened next?

1190
01:38:27,174 --> 01:38:30,044
He held my family at gunpoint.

1191
01:38:32,346 --> 01:38:35,583
Then he dragged my nephew
from my home and drove off.

1192
01:38:35,616 --> 01:38:37,318
Sambo!

1193
01:38:40,221 --> 01:38:43,157
And would you

1194
01:38:43,190 --> 01:38:47,762
Would you recognize Mr. Milam
were you to see him again?

1195
01:38:59,240 --> 01:39:00,241
Yes, sir.

1196
01:39:04,111 --> 01:39:05,746
I would.

1197
01:39:18,059 --> 01:39:19,493
There he is.

1198
01:39:24,799 --> 01:39:26,535
The State rests.

1199
01:39:28,903 --> 01:39:30,671
The witness
can leave now.

1200
01:39:32,606 --> 01:39:34,341
The court will have a recess.

1201
01:40:01,268 --> 01:40:02,770
What did you think you heard?

1202
01:40:05,973 --> 01:40:09,009
I heard loud hollering
and licks

1203
01:40:10,211 --> 01:40:11,312
comin' from that shed.

1204
01:40:12,613 --> 01:40:13,914
Sounded like a boy.

1205
01:40:15,683 --> 01:40:16,884
I saw, uh...

1206
01:40:19,453 --> 01:40:20,721
J.W. Milam.

1207
01:40:22,022 --> 01:40:24,892
Saw a green truck
with a white top.

1208
01:40:27,428 --> 01:40:28,629
As they drove off,

1209
01:40:28,662 --> 01:40:32,366
there was, uh.
two White men in the cab

1210
01:40:32,399 --> 01:40:34,101
and three colored men
in the back.

1211
01:40:35,703 --> 01:40:37,606
They was all sitting
next to a body.

1212
01:40:37,638 --> 01:40:39,340
Are you sure
that's what you heard?

1213
01:40:39,373 --> 01:40:40,508
Yes, sir.

1214
01:40:40,542 --> 01:40:42,343
Huh. If that's what you heard,

1215
01:40:42,376 --> 01:40:45,646
why not yell out,
or call "Help"?

1216
01:40:49,717 --> 01:40:50,918
I...

1217
01:40:54,188 --> 01:40:55,557
I...

1218
01:40:55,590 --> 01:40:56,790
I couldn't.

1219
01:40:57,725 --> 01:40:59,093
No further questions.

1220
01:41:10,704 --> 01:41:11,906
You can leave now.

1221
01:41:29,790 --> 01:41:32,092
Did you certify
that the body found

1222
01:41:32,126 --> 01:41:33,460
was Emmett Till?

1223
01:41:33,494 --> 01:41:35,062
No, I did not.

1224
01:41:35,095 --> 01:41:37,498
I just said
it was a dead body.

1225
01:41:37,532 --> 01:41:40,968
You couldn't even tell if
the body was White or Black.

1226
01:41:41,001 --> 01:41:42,336
Thank you, Sheriff Strider.

1227
01:41:42,369 --> 01:41:43,737
You are excused.

1228
01:41:46,941 --> 01:41:48,175
You want my honest opinion?

1229
01:41:48,209 --> 01:41:50,711
I think the boy's mammy
and the NAACP

1230
01:41:50,744 --> 01:41:53,280
plotted this whole thing.

1231
01:41:53,314 --> 01:41:55,115
Thank you, Sheriff Strider.

1232
01:41:56,717 --> 01:41:58,452
That boy's
still alive somewhere.

1233
01:42:40,595 --> 01:42:41,862
Mamie...

1234
01:42:44,733 --> 01:42:46,701
Did you have a son who,
in his lifetime,

1235
01:42:46,735 --> 01:42:48,836
was known as Emmett Till?

1236
01:42:50,304 --> 01:42:51,505
Yes, sir.

1237
01:42:51,539 --> 01:42:53,374
How old was he?

1238
01:42:53,407 --> 01:42:55,309
Fourteen years of age.

1239
01:42:55,342 --> 01:42:57,211
Is his father
living today?

1240
01:42:57,746 --> 01:42:58,912
No, sir.

1241
01:42:58,946 --> 01:43:01,215
He died in service.

1242
01:43:01,248 --> 01:43:02,916
Oh.
Uh, when your husband,

1243
01:43:02,950 --> 01:43:05,553
the father of Emmett Till,
was killed overseas,

1244
01:43:05,587 --> 01:43:08,122
were his belongings
sent to you?

1245
01:43:08,155 --> 01:43:09,223
Yes, sir.

1246
01:43:10,824 --> 01:43:12,359
I now hand you

1247
01:43:13,561 --> 01:43:16,598
a ring
that has engraved on it,

1248
01:43:16,631 --> 01:43:20,769
May 25th, 1943,

1249
01:43:20,801 --> 01:43:22,269
with the large initials L.T.

1250
01:43:22,303 --> 01:43:24,505
Was that among the items
that were sent to you?

1251
01:43:25,406 --> 01:43:26,440
Yes, sir.

1252
01:43:27,609 --> 01:43:28,809
And is that the ring

1253
01:43:28,842 --> 01:43:31,278
that Emmett came down here
to Mississippi with?

1254
01:43:32,279 --> 01:43:33,347
Yes, sir.

1255
01:43:34,915 --> 01:43:38,952
Mamie, I wish
you would state to the court,

1256
01:43:39,654 --> 01:43:41,021
and to the jury,

1257
01:43:41,055 --> 01:43:43,357
whether you could identify
the body

1258
01:43:43,390 --> 01:43:46,093
that you saw down there
in the funeral home

1259
01:43:46,126 --> 01:43:48,395
as that of your son,
Emmett Till.

1260
01:43:49,631 --> 01:43:50,898
I could.

1261
01:43:57,739 --> 01:44:01,075
It's hard to describe
what a mother knows.

1262
01:44:02,910 --> 01:44:04,144
Please.

1263
01:44:10,451 --> 01:44:13,521
The first thing I noticed
when I became a mother

1264
01:44:14,188 --> 01:44:16,624
was that my hands were busy.

1265
01:44:16,658 --> 01:44:18,892
All the time.

1266
01:44:18,926 --> 01:44:22,597
Rocking, carrying, swaying,
always full.

1267
01:44:23,030 --> 01:44:24,699
One hand for him,

1268
01:44:24,733 --> 01:44:26,934
and one hand
for what he needed.

1269
01:44:28,202 --> 01:44:30,337
When it came time
to place him down

1270
01:44:30,371 --> 01:44:32,607
so he could make
his own way around,

1271
01:44:33,742 --> 01:44:35,610
I touched every inch of him.

1272
01:44:36,310 --> 01:44:38,379
Every bend.

1273
01:44:38,412 --> 01:44:42,584
My hand knew him
with my eyes closed.

1274
01:44:42,617 --> 01:44:43,884
Just like I'd know
his laughter

1275
01:44:43,917 --> 01:44:45,386
in a crowded room.

1276
01:44:46,521 --> 01:44:50,324
It's the same thing
when you know all of someone.

1277
01:45:03,036 --> 01:45:06,974
I started by laying my hands
on a foot.

1278
01:45:08,643 --> 01:45:10,144
And then

1279
01:45:11,311 --> 01:45:12,946
found his knees.

1280
01:45:15,149 --> 01:45:17,251
I remembered him...

1281
01:45:19,153 --> 01:45:23,157
as my fingers
traced his hairline,

1282
01:45:24,391 --> 01:45:28,596
and bumped over the crease
of his eyelid.

1283
01:45:30,931 --> 01:45:33,434
He was spoiled and puffed,

1284
01:45:34,669 --> 01:45:36,103
but these were the same parts

1285
01:45:36,136 --> 01:45:38,272
of a boy I'd nurtured
and loved.

1286
01:45:39,306 --> 01:45:42,176
Nothing and no one
could hide him from me.

1287
01:45:44,445 --> 01:45:46,013
A mother knows.

1288
01:45:47,481 --> 01:45:49,183
Your mother would know.

1289
01:45:50,284 --> 01:45:51,118
And I knew.

1290
01:45:51,151 --> 01:45:56,223
I knew this was my boy.
Emmett Till.

1291
01:45:56,891 --> 01:45:58,526
Beyond any doubt.

1292
01:46:01,295 --> 01:46:03,263
Thank you. Uh...

1293
01:46:04,766 --> 01:46:07,201
Thank you, Mrs. Bradley.

1294
01:46:07,234 --> 01:46:10,070
I believe that's all any of us
would ever need to hear.

1295
01:46:14,676 --> 01:46:15,777
Mamie?

1296
01:46:15,810 --> 01:46:16,845
Do you happen to remember

1297
01:46:16,878 --> 01:46:18,847
the date
Emmett Till's father died?

1298
01:46:18,880 --> 01:46:22,382
Yes, sir.
July the 2nd, 1945.

1299
01:46:22,416 --> 01:46:23,885
Where was he
when he died?

1300
01:46:23,918 --> 01:46:25,252
In Europe.

1301
01:46:26,353 --> 01:46:28,989
Did you have an insurance
policy on Emmett Till?

1302
01:46:29,757 --> 01:46:30,925
Um...

1303
01:46:30,959 --> 01:46:32,694
Yes, sir.

1304
01:46:32,727 --> 01:46:34,863
How much was it for?

1305
01:46:34,896 --> 01:46:38,131
I had a 10-cent
and 15-cent policy,

1306
01:46:38,165 --> 01:46:41,268
two weekly policies,
and they equaled $400.

1307
01:46:41,301 --> 01:46:43,370
$400?

1308
01:46:44,873 --> 01:46:46,641
Now, to whom
were those policies payable?

1309
01:46:46,674 --> 01:46:49,243
Uh,
we object to that, Your Honor.

1310
01:46:49,276 --> 01:46:50,912
Objection overruled.

1311
01:46:50,945 --> 01:46:53,113
The witness
will answer the question.

1312
01:46:54,181 --> 01:46:56,250
I was the beneficiary on one,

1313
01:46:56,283 --> 01:46:58,151
and my mother
was on the other.

1314
01:46:59,219 --> 01:47:00,254
He ever cause

1315
01:47:00,287 --> 01:47:02,022
or get in any trouble
in Chicago?

1316
01:47:02,857 --> 01:47:03,958
No more than any other boy.

1317
01:47:03,992 --> 01:47:05,425
Did he attend
a reform school?

1318
01:47:05,459 --> 01:47:06,694
What for?

1319
01:47:06,728 --> 01:47:07,729
No.

1320
01:47:09,096 --> 01:47:11,398
You've been quoted
in the colored press,

1321
01:47:11,431 --> 01:47:14,134
"I told him several times
before he left for Mississippi

1322
01:47:14,167 --> 01:47:15,570
"that he should kneel
in the street

1323
01:47:15,603 --> 01:47:16,905
"and beg for forgiveness

1324
01:47:16,938 --> 01:47:18,740
"should he ever insult
a White person."

1325
01:47:18,773 --> 01:47:20,875
Not those exact words.

1326
01:47:20,909 --> 01:47:23,343
Did you caution
him not to insult White women?

1327
01:47:23,377 --> 01:47:26,280
I referred to White people
in general.

1328
01:47:26,313 --> 01:47:27,982
Did you caution your son

1329
01:47:28,016 --> 01:47:29,416
how to conduct himself
and behave himself

1330
01:47:29,449 --> 01:47:30,718
while he was down here
in Mississippi?

1331
01:47:30,752 --> 01:47:31,686
Several times.

1332
01:47:31,719 --> 01:47:34,254
Several times!
Do tell us how.

1333
01:47:34,288 --> 01:47:36,189
I will give you
a literal description

1334
01:47:36,223 --> 01:47:37,559
of what I told him.

1335
01:47:37,592 --> 01:47:38,793
How coming down here,

1336
01:47:38,826 --> 01:47:42,095
he would have to adapt himself
to a different way of life.

1337
01:47:42,129 --> 01:47:44,197
Be very careful
about how he spoke,

1338
01:47:44,231 --> 01:47:45,633
and to whom he spoke,

1339
01:47:45,667 --> 01:47:49,336
and to always remember to say,
"Yes, sir" and "No, ma'am."

1340
01:47:49,369 --> 01:47:51,839
I told him that if ever
an incident should arise

1341
01:47:51,873 --> 01:47:53,206
where there would be
any trouble

1342
01:47:53,240 --> 01:47:54,709
of any kind with White people,

1343
01:47:54,742 --> 01:47:56,844
that if it got to the point
where he needed

1344
01:47:56,878 --> 01:47:58,646
to go down on his knees
before them,

1345
01:47:58,680 --> 01:48:02,050
well, I told him
not to hesitate to do so.

1346
01:48:02,082 --> 01:48:05,218
Like if he bumped
into somebody on the street

1347
01:48:05,252 --> 01:48:07,522
and they might get belligerent
or something.

1348
01:48:07,555 --> 01:48:10,357
Well, I told him to go ahead
and humble himself

1349
01:48:10,390 --> 01:48:13,595
so as not to get into
any trouble! But...

1350
01:48:14,662 --> 01:48:15,797
But what?

1351
01:48:17,031 --> 01:48:20,535
Well, I raised him with love
for 14 years.

1352
01:48:20,568 --> 01:48:24,504
My sudden warnings about hate
weren't going to get through.

1353
01:48:25,707 --> 01:48:27,240
I now show you
what purports to be

1354
01:48:27,274 --> 01:48:28,810
a photograph of your son.

1355
01:48:31,546 --> 01:48:35,950
This was taken in my home
two days after Christmas.

1356
01:48:35,984 --> 01:48:38,553
Now, tell the court
and the jury what this is.

1357
01:48:40,521 --> 01:48:43,791
This picture is of my son

1358
01:48:43,825 --> 01:48:47,829
after Mississippi sent him
back to Chicago, dead.

1359
01:48:51,365 --> 01:48:52,767
No further questions.

1360
01:48:54,535 --> 01:48:56,336
And for the prosecution?

1361
01:48:57,972 --> 01:48:59,339
State rests.

1362
01:49:01,643 --> 01:49:03,243
Court will have
a recess.

1363
01:49:09,149 --> 01:49:10,450
They...

1364
01:49:10,484 --> 01:49:13,453
They killed my son again.

1365
01:49:21,963 --> 01:49:23,263
Hmm.

1366
01:50:04,371 --> 01:50:06,874
Will the jury please
retire to the jury room?

1367
01:50:09,777 --> 01:50:12,647
The testimony
being offered here today

1368
01:50:12,680 --> 01:50:15,783
of a prior incident
at the store in Money

1369
01:50:15,817 --> 01:50:16,984
is irrelevant.

1370
01:50:18,152 --> 01:50:19,319
Your Honor,

1371
01:50:19,352 --> 01:50:22,090
may we still continue
the testimony

1372
01:50:22,123 --> 01:50:24,291
on account of the record?

1373
01:50:24,324 --> 01:50:25,760
Uh, Your Honor...

1374
01:50:25,793 --> 01:50:27,294
Sit down.

1375
01:50:28,228 --> 01:50:31,065
Now, I see no harm
in letting Ms. Bryant

1376
01:50:31,099 --> 01:50:34,434
share her side of things
if she wants to.

1377
01:50:34,468 --> 01:50:36,671
Hell, everybody else has.

1378
01:50:36,704 --> 01:50:38,706
You think
you can handle that, dear?

1379
01:50:47,081 --> 01:50:48,516
Mrs. Bryant,

1380
01:50:49,316 --> 01:50:51,451
was anyone in the store
with you

1381
01:50:51,485 --> 01:50:55,957
on Wednesday night,
24th day of August, 1955?

1382
01:50:58,192 --> 01:50:59,594
I was alone.

1383
01:51:00,695 --> 01:51:03,263
But the children
were in the back.

1384
01:51:03,296 --> 01:51:04,899
In the living quarters.

1385
01:51:06,200 --> 01:51:08,603
And what time of day was it?

1386
01:51:08,636 --> 01:51:09,837
After dark.

1387
01:51:11,239 --> 01:51:12,272
Alone.

1388
01:51:12,305 --> 01:51:14,508
At nighttime
with your children.

1389
01:51:14,542 --> 01:51:17,044
Well, you just tell the court
what happened next.

1390
01:51:19,312 --> 01:51:22,049
This nigger man
came into the store

1391
01:51:22,083 --> 01:51:24,417
and stood by the candy case.

1392
01:51:25,186 --> 01:51:26,788
And you?

1393
01:51:26,821 --> 01:51:29,422
I was
behind the counter.

1394
01:51:29,456 --> 01:51:32,260
I asked the man
what he wanted.

1395
01:51:32,292 --> 01:51:34,796
And then did you get him
the merchandise?

1396
01:51:34,829 --> 01:51:35,830
Yes.

1397
01:51:37,430 --> 01:51:40,268
And then what did you do?

1398
01:51:40,300 --> 01:51:42,637
I held out my hand
for the money.

1399
01:51:43,838 --> 01:51:45,505
Will you show the court

1400
01:51:45,540 --> 01:51:47,008
how you held your hand out?

1401
01:51:48,843 --> 01:51:49,877
Like this.

1402
01:51:49,911 --> 01:51:52,345
And did he give you
the money?

1403
01:51:52,379 --> 01:51:54,515
No,
he caught my hand.

1404
01:51:55,516 --> 01:51:57,417
Will you show the court

1405
01:51:57,450 --> 01:51:59,554
just how he grasped your hand?

1406
01:52:03,390 --> 01:52:05,259
And was that a strong grip
or a light grip

1407
01:52:05,293 --> 01:52:07,829
that he had
when he held your hand?

1408
01:52:07,862 --> 01:52:09,197
A strong grip.

1409
01:52:11,431 --> 01:52:13,935
Will you show
the court what you did?

1410
01:52:13,968 --> 01:52:15,603
How did you get loose?

1411
01:52:21,008 --> 01:52:23,878
I jerked it loose like this.

1412
01:52:25,046 --> 01:52:29,349
Now, just what did he say
when he grabbed your hand?

1413
01:52:31,085 --> 01:52:33,955
- "How about a date, baby?"
- Hmm.

1414
01:52:35,156 --> 01:52:37,325
Now, you freed yourself.

1415
01:52:37,357 --> 01:52:38,860
And what happened then?

1416
01:52:43,164 --> 01:52:45,465
I turned to the back
of the store.

1417
01:52:47,367 --> 01:52:49,469
And he went on his way?

1418
01:52:51,606 --> 01:52:53,373
No.

1419
01:52:53,406 --> 01:52:56,811
He came after me.

1420
01:52:56,844 --> 01:52:59,814
He caught me down
by the cash register.

1421
01:53:02,350 --> 01:53:06,787
Mrs. Bryant, can you
demonstrate for the court?

1422
01:53:09,657 --> 01:53:10,524
Yes.

1423
01:53:10,558 --> 01:53:11,859
All right, now.

1424
01:53:19,767 --> 01:53:22,536
Grabbed your hands,
pinned them behind your back?

1425
01:53:24,805 --> 01:53:26,107
Yes.

1426
01:53:26,140 --> 01:53:29,110
His right hand
on your right hip?

1427
01:53:30,578 --> 01:53:32,079
Here.

1428
01:53:33,247 --> 01:53:34,815
Just what did he say?

1429
01:53:36,817 --> 01:53:40,888
He said,
"You needn't be afraid of me.

1430
01:53:40,922 --> 01:53:42,924
"I've been
with White women before."

1431
01:53:43,891 --> 01:53:45,993
And what happened then?

1432
01:53:46,027 --> 01:53:48,461
Then another nigger
came in the door...

1433
01:53:50,364 --> 01:53:52,566
I'm ready to go.

1434
01:53:52,600 --> 01:53:53,968
You want me
to come and get you

1435
01:53:54,001 --> 01:53:54,902
when they read a verdict?

1436
01:53:54,936 --> 01:53:59,073
No. I'm ready
to leave Mississippi. Now.

1437
01:53:59,106 --> 01:54:00,574
What about the verdict?

1438
01:54:01,575 --> 01:54:03,511
I know what the verdict is.

1439
01:54:06,280 --> 01:54:08,783
<i>After deliberating</i>
<i>for about an hour,</i>

1440
01:54:08,816 --> 01:54:11,185
<i>the jury has just come back</i>
<i>with a verdict</i>

1441
01:54:11,218 --> 01:54:13,187
<i>of "not guilty."</i>

1442
01:54:13,220 --> 01:54:17,158
<i>Thus the defendants Milam</i>
<i>and Bryant are free men.</i>

1443
01:54:17,191 --> 01:54:18,793
<i>They celebrated their victory</i>

1444
01:54:18,826 --> 01:54:22,430
<i>laughing and smiling with</i>
<i>their wives at their side,</i>

1445
01:54:22,462 --> 01:54:25,199
<i>clearly happy...</i>

1446
01:54:58,498 --> 01:55:02,870
<i>Her story</i>
<i>has changed the world.</i>

1447
01:55:02,903 --> 01:55:06,607
<i>Because she had the courage</i>
<i>to make it not just her own,</i>

1448
01:55:07,274 --> 01:55:08,576
<i>but all of ours.</i>

1449
01:55:11,278 --> 01:55:14,915
<i>Mamie, it is an honor</i>
<i>to share the stage with you.</i>

1450
01:55:16,584 --> 01:55:18,552
<i>To share this fight with you.</i>

1451
01:55:18,586 --> 01:55:20,588
Yes, yes!

1452
01:55:20,621 --> 01:55:25,860
<i>Please welcome</i>
<i>Mrs. Mamie Till-Bradley.</i>

1453
01:55:30,898 --> 01:55:32,466
This is just
the beginning.

1454
01:55:42,109 --> 01:55:46,347
<i>I would like to</i>
<i>give honor to God,</i>

1455
01:55:46,380 --> 01:55:48,416
<i>who is the source</i>
<i>of my strength</i>

1456
01:55:48,449 --> 01:55:50,317
<i>and the reason for my being.</i>

1457
01:55:51,619 --> 01:55:55,122
<i>I thank you,</i>
<i>Mr. Mooty and the NAACP,</i>

1458
01:55:55,156 --> 01:55:58,125
<i>for inviting me</i>
<i>to speak before you all</i>

1459
01:55:58,159 --> 01:55:59,927
<i>in Harlem, New York City.</i>

1460
01:56:00,327 --> 01:56:01,929
Yes.

1461
01:56:01,962 --> 01:56:04,932
<i>My son's brutalized body</i>
<i>meant nothing</i>

1462
01:56:04,965 --> 01:56:08,135
<i>to Mississippi's</i>
<i>criminal justice system.</i>

1463
01:56:08,169 --> 01:56:11,372
<i>And while they blamed</i>
<i>the victim, as usual,</i>

1464
01:56:11,405 --> 01:56:14,775
<i>the federal government</i>
<i>stood idly by.</i>

1465
01:56:14,809 --> 01:56:17,344
<i>If this country</i>
<i>fails to protect</i>

1466
01:56:17,378 --> 01:56:19,013
<i>the Black body from hate,</i>

1467
01:56:19,046 --> 01:56:21,482
<i>America has yet to meet</i>
<i>her promise.</i>

1468
01:56:21,516 --> 01:56:22,783
Amen!

1469
01:56:22,817 --> 01:56:26,320
<i>Either freedom for everyone,</i>
<i>or freedom fails!</i>

1470
01:56:35,096 --> 01:56:39,166
<i>One month ago, I had</i>
<i>a nice apartment in Chicago.</i>

1471
01:56:39,200 --> 01:56:43,804
<i>I had a good job. I had a son.</i>

1472
01:56:43,838 --> 01:56:46,240
<i>When something happened</i>
<i>to the Negroes in the South,</i>

1473
01:56:46,273 --> 01:56:50,277
<i>I said, "Well, that's</i>
<i>their business. Not mine."</i>

1474
01:56:50,311 --> 01:56:53,848
<i>Now I know how wrong I was.</i>

1475
01:56:53,881 --> 01:56:56,150
<i>The lynching of my son</i>
<i>has shown me</i>

1476
01:56:56,183 --> 01:56:58,219
<i>that what happens</i>
<i>to any of us,</i>

1477
01:56:58,252 --> 01:56:59,521
<i>anywhere in the world,</i>

1478
01:56:59,554 --> 01:57:02,623
<i>had better be the business</i>
<i>of us all.</i>

1479
01:57:17,505 --> 01:57:19,140
I hear ya, sister!

1480
01:57:19,673 --> 01:57:21,075
That's right.

1481
01:57:21,842 --> 01:57:23,444
Tell it like it is!

1482
01:57:23,477 --> 01:57:24,778
I heard that!

1483
01:57:26,147 --> 01:57:27,681
Yes! Yes!
