      No she did not. She made the world see what being immersed in river water had dome to her son (or any human body). They thought that what they were looking at was the result of a beating . . . eyes gouged out, nose cut, tongue missing, fingers missing, genitals cut off, etc. But when the FBI exhumed the body and did a new autopsy, they found that the corpse had returned to normal and they could barely see any damage at all. He wasn't castrated, the eyes and tongue were normal, nose, finger and toes all there, etc. He had a broken skull and what appeared to be a gunshot behind the right ear.

I couldn’t even finish watching the show because it was too emotional and as a mother myself to a boy I couldn’t imagine the pain.

    Losing a child is one of the hardest things any mother or father goes through
    Because we bury I parents first which Is the law of life
    But to have your child tragically killed by the hands of a liar , hatred and for their face is be disfigured is a whole other level of pain
    I don’t how his mom had courage she was definitely a woman of faith she didn’t let her son die in vain
    His story which I learned about 5 years ago is something til this day so impactful it almost makes me afraid to have children
    Because of how evil people among us are
    But I find inspiration from her bravery to talk about her son he changed the world
    Rip Emmet Till ❤️

    A part of me is happy this movie is made - the other part is so sad at the idea of seing the re-enactment of such wrongdoing perpetrated on Emmett Till. A heartbreaking story. Justice should have been done long ago on this case - will it ever?? May Emmett's gentle soul and the courageous soul of his mother rest in eternal peace.

    They were worth a movement that changed the course of our history.
    Those who are unfamiliar with the life of Emmett Till and his mother.....watch this movie. Then research what began the entire Civil Rights movement into full blown action.

    I am from New Zealand and was told about the story of Emmitt till when I was at high-school and to see what happened in detail is just heart breaking. Mamie lived her life fighting for justice for her son and its terribly sad that justice has not been adequately served for Emitt and his family to close this case and receive the closure they so dearly deserve.
    I pray for the family and friends of Emitt till and mother Mamie Mobley and hope that one day the wrongs will corrected and they get the peace they have been needing and wanting for so long.
    So much love to them all ❤
