Emmett Till's mother speaking on forgiveness.
A musical piece dedicated to Emmett Till.
Emmett Till, your name echoes through time,
A stolen childhood, a truth paid in blood,
Your mother’s courage turned grief into light.
Your story still teaches the world to see, to remember, to stand.
Through you, silence was broken and injustice exposed.
May your legacy continue to demand truth, dignity, and change.
