Rev. Willie Williams | Reckoning with Remembrance: History, Injustice, and the Murder of Emmett Till

Reverend Willie Williams, Emmett Till Memorial Commission Co-Chair, speaks about the spiritual aspect of the Commission's work.
More than 60 years later, the anti-Black racism that led to Emmett’s murder continues. Today, historical signs that publicly commemorate Emmett are part of an ongoing fight in the United States over which histories are remembered and which are suppressed.
Reckoning with Remembrance: History, Injustice, and the Murder of Emmett Till is co-curated by the National Museum of American History (NMAH) and the Emmett Till Interpretive Center (ETIC) in Sumner, Mississippi. Both NMAH and ETIC are committed to a long-term partnership that creates sustained public reflection on the enduring legacies of anti-Black violence.
