Art Exhibition Imagines What Life Emmett Till Might Have Lived
The Chicago exhibition celebrates Black creativity while inviting audiences to reckon with racism in America, according to The Guardian.
A new exhibition in Chicago, "If Emmett Till Lived: Freedom on American Ground," imagines the life Emmett Till never got to live, The Guardian reported.
The exhibition, at the Museum of Contemporary Photography, presents an imagined photo library and invites audiences to reckon with racism in America 71 years after Till's killing, which the report said partially ignited the US civil rights movement.
