    2. Go to the movies and check out ‘The Untold Story of Emmett Louis Till’ ---Filmmaker Keith Beauchamp has launched his groundbreaking film, THE UNTOLD STORY OF EMMETT LOUIS TILL. Beauchamp says, "My mother always instilled in me the importance of helping those who cannot help themselves, just as in the Emmett Till case; Emmett could not speak for himself, and he was denied justice. I felt it was my obligation as a young person in this country to make sure that this case was reopened.” The Award-winning documentary, now shown in select theaters around the country, is a culmination of a 10-year effort to uncover the details behind the nightmarish murder story and has led to a national effort to re-open the case and investigate new evidence and witnesses to the murder. New York Magazine called the film "The most important documentary of the year and an essential tale of what it means to be an American."
