Back To Square One? Fifty Years After Emmett Till--Trailer

[GeorgeVreelandHill]

A lot has changed for the better since Emmett Till.

The only problem is there are still some racists left.

As for George Bush, well, he only liked himself.

Color did not matter with him because he did not care.

am I the only one who can't stomach the pic of Till disfigured face????

[svvmichael1]

This is one of the stupidest song/ videos ever created. The creator of it should bathe in a bath-tub of razor-blades, then go swim in the ocean.

[Oreocremerocks]

Did someone really compare the brutal brutal evil murder of a 14 yo child, who happened to have a darker colored skin tone, to the ban of "bling" in the NBA? REALLY? Hmmmm let me see, what to compare next, oh oh I know! I don't know what I can't stand more, getting a paper cut from opening Christmas gifts on Christmas morning, or finding my brutally murdered child in the basement of my home? Papercuts really do sting alot, hmmmm?!?!?!?!?

[DG3744]

[godishere7]

black ppl had it hard, and always will

[babyvance]

every race had it hard and will always have it hard.

[DarkDeAndre]

seems there isnt anything but ignorant ppl commenting  the point of Emmett Till is not for blacks to hate whites or for whites to hate blacks

Emmett was a Sacrifice for us to get along

we dont have to hate anymore

its 2008 now

we need to move on damn

black ppl stop hating the white man and get a freaken job

white ppl stop taking all this crap from the other races and run the freaken planet

you dont have to hate anymore either

lets live in peace damn

Take this From a black man

[Neenie2t]

[Waluigirules]

actualy we don't speak english... kinda. We speak american slang. Brits speak proper english and stuff. And besides England was mean to the colonist when they came here they kept taxing us because they didn't want to tax there own self to get money.

[AmethystDragon500]

ur an idiot

[AmethystDragon500]

ya....but does murder justify his act? Hell no!

[steveaustin9768]

white people are the scum of the earth.HYPOCRITES,LIARS,THIEVES­,RAPISTS,Murderers,etc-sums up these crackers.The white man is just upset that it's becoming "a people of color"world.Give it 20 years and whitey will be the minority,and we will be the majority.I love it.

[mkulax]

see, what i dont understand is why white people take racism from black people, almost all white people wouldn't dare say anything about black people because we know its wrong and are ashamed of history. but its completely acceptable the other way around?

our society accepts that black people could say all the racist things about white people and we just take it? thats not equality and harmony, this is the reason there is still tension between our races. its ridiculous!

[kentamitchell]

You just said a mouthful. The great unspoken rule these days is that if any white person makes any criticism of any black person for any reason gets called a racist.

I am sorry that some rednecks killed Emmitt Till; but a lot of professional blacks seem to expect all white people to wear sackcloth and ashes for this 50+ years later. Of course if I express outrage that OJ Simpson got off on a double murder, some idiot is going to call me a racist.

[Oreocremerocks]

@mkulax Amen! My best friends family is pushing her away because she has me for a best friend. My family loves her to death. Her youngest is my God child, they treat her almost as if she were my own birth child, they don't notice her skin is not like mine or theirs. But my friend's family sure looks at me funny, and I can see they are uncomfortable with me. Its sad, I can see her pain. Oh yea, Im white, my best friend is black.

[SinclairisCool]

@mkulax

Well it makes sense in away. 200 years of racism isn't just going to go away because somebody signed a bill. Sure, everybody has rights now, everybody is equal in the eyes of the law. But white people like our selves have to understand that we had this coming. You don't just disrespect black people for over 200 years and expect them to not be pissed?

[hxcrawker13]

fuckkk youuu EVERY RACE HAS ITS SHARE OF BAD PEOPLE

[misstmocha07]

Mike52Larry, I'm so tired of you and yo fuckin dumb ass comments. You are such a racist bastard. If you so degrading to Black people, why are you wastin' yo time lookin at all the Black documentaries?? Go to a Redneck convention with all dat shit you dumb bastard and if you ain't got crap postive to say then get da fuck on and stop tryin to down Black people on every Emmett Till video on YouTube!!!

[Mike52Larry]

George Bush doesn't care about black people? Well, at least he has something right!

[babydollN]

like what?

yeah, he doesn't have jacksquat right.

[kadat11]

Mike52Larry that is so not cool if you really look at it you white people brought us from Africa so how u gone say go back win yall brought us!!

[Bob2000system]

The NBA "Bling" ban will help them. Swim in the river with the "bling" they might sink like Emmet Till. Don't carry chains across the swamp.

[MZAPF07]

FUCK YOU REDNECK FROM HELL!

[pernch]

That's not funny. Not at all.

[hxcrawker13]

im white...that was fucked

FUCJK YOU RED NECK CUNTTYYY

[AlexandriaQueen2010]

bush show dont care

[stickittothepimp]

this whole thing does not make sense to me... the two don't even slightly compare. The music doesn't even make sense.... yes, clever- Golddigger turned politcal... but honestly, i don't want to see one of the worlds most influential images from the time of the Civil Rights Movement and be listening to a kanye west song. Props to kanye and his music, but it just doesnt feel right..it feels almost insulting.

[sallysall]

i think that you should watch the documentary before deciding what's insulting and what isn't. the point of the hour-long program is that 1-emmett till's murder sparked a movement that many feel obliterated racism against black americans, and 2- that i (the director) feel it did NOT obliterate racism,

[sallysall]

and that even today, racism against any 'minority' (i belong to one, by the way) is still rampant; kanye and the bling ban are just examples of today's feelings ON racism, not meant to be compared with emmett. i ask all visitors to this page to make informed comments. thank you.

[wwefannik]

I wanna lynch the men who killed Emmett!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kokujin1014]

Regretfully the two main bastards who commited the murder are dead. No justice.

[SuperSlyWideout]

those two men are now being tortured in hell like the tortured emmett. fuck those to inbred bastards and those who r behind them, i know none of yall pussies would go out in public and say the shit ur saying on youtube.

[Dvaq]

Agreed with MeepGoEep

[MeepGoEep]

Emmitt has influenced so many people after his death and pretty much sparked the Civil Rights movement. However, comparing the horrendous things done to Emmitt with the bling ban is a very large stretch. Yes, racism still exists, there's no denying that. But, a brutal murder is no where close to a bling ban.

[celticjobber]

Comparing the NBA's "Bling Ban" to the murder of Emmett Till, and the problems on the Gulf Coast after Hurricane Katrina, is not only ludicrous, but also sickening and disrespectful!

[Bok97]

Thank You!

[RichB21]

I agree.

The NBA Dress code has nothing to do with racism.

If you worked any other job, and they recquired you to wear a coat and tie, we wouldn't have issue with it - but somehow because its NBA players, it's RACIST?

That's absurd.

[mohiuddinomar]

what happen to emmett till wass sooo sad

[sallysall]

i know :( may God rest his soul, and may we never forget!
