BREAKING: President Biden has announced that on Tuesday he will sign a proclamation to establish a national monument honoring Emmett Till and his mother Mamie Till-Mobley.
Details:
- The National Monument will span across 3 locations in Illinois and Mississippi, and according to The Independent will "protect places that are central to the story of Till's life and death at age 14, the acquittal of his white killers and his mother's activism, which helped spark the civil rights movement."
- Emmett Till was lynched as a teen in Mississippi in 1955 after being accused of whistling at a white woman.
- Tuesday is the anniversary of Till's birth in 1941.
This is an action that all Americans should be able to get behind.
Thank you Joe Biden.

2 Connecticut police were suspended for their handling of the deaths of 2 Black women found on the same day in December.
Families of #LaurenSmithFields and #BrendaRawls say police did not properly investigate the deaths or inform family — they found out from their own searches.

@Ajretroking Matthew could also be lying, we don't know if she went to the bathroom right after seeing her brother or that she actually was in there that long. How do we know that Matthew didn't drug her? He could have. So if her brother is a liable suspect then so is Matthew.
STILL NO ANSWERS: It's been one month since the death of #LaurenSmithFields. Family and City Council members are still awaiting answers from police and other #Bridgeport officials about what happened. - https://t.co/CuSVMEW0hE
@Ajretroking None of this is mentioned in the article that's your assumption. The reports say that she met her brother briefly to return clothes and at the time she did not appear sick or intoxicated. There's no statement that her brother gave her anything either so that's all heresay.
