In the South, black people who did not follow the customs and laws of Jim Crow faced violent consequences. The Ku Klux Klan (KKK), a white supremacist group that still exists today, gained strength in the early 1900s. Angry white mobs would lynch someone who did not adhere to the accepted racial order. In 1955, Emmett Till was lynched in Mississippi. He had been accused of offending a white woman in a grocery store. He was only 14 years old. His mother made the powerful choice to give her only son an open casket at his funeral to show the world what the racist murderers had done. Which of these statements can you infer Emmett Till’s mother would have most likely agreed with? *
