2 civil rights key events (Will)
2 Civil Rights Key Events (Will)
1: Two students from a university sat in a lunch counter and was refused service, but they start a sit in and refused to leave.
2: An African-American named Rosa Parks sat down in the colored section of a bus and refused to give up her spot to a white person, and this therefore started a boycott in that area.

I disagree(Emitt Till)
I disagree because after that case, maybe, they feel they don't have any power. Maybe they will be become too afraid. I think most of them don't want to die like Emitt Till.
Emmitt Louis Till Poll, Opinion-Louis
I agree because these whites had to know what they have done to this black boy because of only different color
Emmitt Till Louis Opinion-Louis
I was very infurriated to white people who murdered a black boy after I watched this movie. The difference between blacks and whites is only color ,no difference. I think these people in movie who murdered this boy is a not person because people can't do that terrible thing to another human being. Only because a black boy touched whites, whites tortured and murdered that boy. I feel good to black boy's mom because she showed how these whites treated this black because only the colr is different. I think because she showed that to whoe world how black is treated, whites began to feel immoral to treat black like that. I felt even proud of this black mom.
Emitt Till: Opinion... Jinu
I really didn't enjoy Emitt Till movie because it was so terrible, even it made me close my eyes. When it shows Emitt Till's face, I was almost shocked. He lost his 1 eye, other on his cheek, chopped head... it was disgusting and it was tragic. I can not believe that people (who killed Emitt Till) could done that kind of thing. I also can not believe that people's face can be changed like that. I can not understand what's so good with whites.(This is just my opinion but if there is segregation, whites should be segregated by blacks.) In my opinion, this case was one of the most important thing in the black's history.
Emitt Till 2 facts...Jinu...
1.Washington,D.C. About 200,000 people join the March on Washington. Congregating at the Lincoln Memorial, participants listen as Martin Luther King dilivers his famous "I Have a Dream"speech.
