justice (emmitt till)

Back in 1955 Emmett Till a 14-year-old African American boy was brutally murdered by a white man all because he whistled at his wife. Emmett Till did not get any justice until many years later. The case of Emmett Till is just like the case in the book To Kill A Mockingbird with Tom Roberson. Tom Roberson was a simple black man who worked on a white mans land who all so would help his daughter with other things. Than one day Tom Roberson was acutes of beating and raping his daughter when it was untrue. The only thing the people in the court room could see was a black man and a white women and they figured right away who and who was not guilty. Still till this day we have problames in the court room but we make the best of things because one day the truth will come out it all ways does
