Summary edit

Description
English: Mississippi Freedom Trail Marker in Money, Mississippi explaining the situation that happened with Emmet Till in Bryant's Grocery. The sign reads:

MISSISSIPPI FREEDOM TRAIL
BRYANT'S GROCERY
Fourteen-year-old Emmett Till came to this site to buy candy in August 1955. White shopkeeper Carolyn Bryant accused the black youth of flirting with her, and shortly thereafter, Till was abducted by Bryant's husband and his half brother. Till's tortured body was later found in the Tallahatchie River. The two men were tried and acquitted but later sold their murder confession to Look magazine. Till's death received international attention and is widely credited with sparking the American Civil Rights Movement.
PLACED DURING THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE FREEDOM RIDES – 1961–2011
