Approaching the 60th anniversary of the assassination of her husband Medgar Evers, Myrlie Evers-Williams reflects on the importance of remembering history.
RELATED: John Lewis's impact on civil and voting rights
Myrlie Evers felt her temper rising as she sat in the White House theater behind President Joe Biden last month, watching a screening of the award-winning movie “Till.”
She appreciated the invitation and had no complaints about the film’s portrayal of her as the young wife of civil rights organizer Medgar Evers. What riled her was the reminder of the lynching of 14-year-old Emmett Till in 1955, the reminder of what the violence of the civil rights struggle had cost his family and hers. And of the unfinished business that remains.

“”My cousin was claiming to make over $30,000 per month with them. Was reluctant to join before, now I guess I have no choice.
Hey guys thanks a lot, you just saved me from crypto loss by recommending such a successful and a legit broker in the United States.

Not much has changed in those 60 years yet much has. Hatred of black Americans is as prevalent as the day’s black Americans were freed from the plantation!!!
