Emmett Till Murder
Left: Simeon, 12, and Maurice Wright, 16, cousins of the murdered Black boy, Emmett Till, sit in their home after being questioned. The boys and their father Moses Wright claim Roy Bryant and his half brother J.W. Milam kidnapped the boy from his home.
The boy's body was found in the Tallahatchie River and the kidnap charges have been changed to murder. Right: Moses Wright, 64, great uncle of the murdered boy holds some of Emmett's clothing to show that he was a "large boy for his age." Emmett had suffered from plio as a child and was somewhat handicapped. (Photo by Bettmann Archive/Getty Images)
