My aunt died a couple of hours ago. Her kids were with her, and her best friend, and everyone else had had enough time to visit or write. For years, she was the recorded voice of British Telecom (no residuals, as she often remarked) -
On August 28, 1955, Emmett Till was abducted, bludgeoned and brutally murdered by white supremacists. He was only 14.
