Emmett Till Birthday Tours

In honor of Emmett Till’s birthday, education staff from the Two Mississippi Museums will host free flash tours at 10:30 a.m. on Friday, July 25. In August 1955, Till was murdered by Roy Bryant and J.W. Milam for allegedly whistling at Caryoln Bryant, Roy Bryant’s wife. Till’s murder inspired an upcoming generation of young civil rights activists to join the freedom struggle. For more information, call 601-576-6850 or email info@mdah.ms.gov.
