    #JusticeforEmmettTill This boy and his mother should be made American icons. Emmett was a martyr, a true example of what hatred can do. His mother is an example of bravery and determination. Imagine losing a child the way she did and having to live her life with the loss, grief and sense of injustice. Emmett was just 14, full of dreams and aspirations. This story must be told time and time again. Justice for Emmett. Justice for Emmett 🙏

      Sadly they never got justice. She tried hard but it didn't happen. Those men that killed Emmett never went to prison and were acquitted. They died free men, which is a total insult. The wife of one of the men that accused Emmett of advances is still alive and she initially came out saying she lied but then later denied lying. It's so not right especially since those men confessed killing to a magazine. Mamie at least was able to inspire the civil rights movement but justice was never served in this case. I hope that Emmett and his mother Mamie are now reunited in heaven.

The brothers also had black workers and an eyewitness confirms at least one of them was there in the barn when the boy was tortured and killed. That worker might have talked if the government gave him immunity or something but of course, nobody in power really wants to see any actual arrests. I saw an interview with him "Didn't see nothing, didn't do nothing". Yeah, right.

Why did it take for her time to pass before she could see her son as he was before August of ‘55? Why does God work like that? Why wasn’t his hand on Emmett? Why did the devil hands of Jim Crow touch him? Why? Why was a liar able to live out her days and grow old? Why? Are you busy, God? Were you busy, God?

    The harvest has begun! (Matthew 13:30) "... repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand" (Matthew 3:1-2) God demands repentance from everyone, for "there is no righteous man on earth who does good and does not sin" (Eccl. 7:20)..."
    “None is righteous, no, not one; no one understands; no one seeks for God. All have turned aside; together they have become worthless; no one does good,
    not even one.”(Rom. 3:10-12).
    "And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be in the days of the Son of Man: they
    ate, drank, married, married, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed everyone.
    Just as it was in the days of Lot: they ate, drank, bought, sold, planted, built; but on the day that Lot left Sodom, a rain of fire and brimstone fell from heaven and destroyed everyone; so it will be on the day when the Son of Man appears. On that day, whoever is on the roof, and his things are in the house, do not go down to take them; and whoever is in the field, also do not turn back. Remember Lotova's wife.
    Whoever saves his soul will destroy it; and whoever destroys it will revive it.
    I tell you: that night there will be two on the same bed: one will take, and the other will remain; two will grind together: one will take, and the other will remain; two will be in the field: one will take, and the other will remain."
    (Luke 17:26-36)
    "Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour at which the Son of Man will come."
    (Matthew 25:13)
    10 And he said to me, Seal not the words of the prophecy of this book; for the time is at hand.
    11 Let the unrighteous still do unrighteousness; let the unclean still be defiled; let the righteous still do righteousness, and let the holy one be sanctified still.
    12 Behold, I am coming soon, and my retribution is with me, to reward everyone according to his deeds.
    13 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the First and the Last.
    14 Blessed are those who keep his commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life and enter the city through the gates.
    15 But outside are dogs, and sorcerers, and adulterers, and murderers, and idolaters, and everyone who loves and does unrighteousness.
    16 I, Jesus, have sent my angel to witness these things to you in the churches. I am the root and descendant of David, the bright and morning star.
    17 And the Spirit and the bride say, Come! And let him who hears say: Come! Let him who is thirsty come, and let him who is willing take the water of life for free.
    18 And I also testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds anything to them, God will put on him the plagues that are written in this book;
    19 And if anyone takes away anything from the words of this book of prophecy, God will take away from him his participation in the book of life, and in the holy city, and in what is written in this book.
    20 He who bears witness to this says, "To her, I am coming soon!" Amen. To her, come, Lord Jesus!
    21 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ is with you all. Amen."
    (Revelation of John the Theologian, 22:10-21)
    "If we say that we have no sin- we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us." (1 John 1:8)
    "Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out" (Acts 3:19)
