In 1955, a 14-year-old Black Chicago youth traveled to Mississippi with family and Southern cooking on his mind. He stepped off the train into a world of thick color lines, hard-held class systems and unspeakable taboos. Dar He chronicles the murder, trial and unbelievable confession of the men accused of Emmett Till’s lynching.
