Thousands came to the funeral. I think that this represents the disgust that she felt over what happened. This was a racial attack- and she was a sheepdog by taking these strides to show everyone what they did and demand change.

Emmett Till’s mother was quoted as saying
“let the world see what has happened,
because there is no way I could describe
this.” (from powerpoint)
