Gallery Talk: Emmett Till
Join us at 11 a.m. on Thursday, May 4, for a gallery talk in the Emmett Till & Mamie Till-Mobley: Let the World See exhibit at the Two Mississippi Museums. Mississippi author Linda Williams Jackson will discuss how she transformed the facts surrounding Till's murder in 1955 into an award-winning middle grade novel, Midnight Without a Moon. The 2017 book features a budding teen character, Rose Lee Carter, wrestling with whether to participate in Mississippi's burgeoning civil rights movement.
