She just told a lie. Don’t make her out to be the devil. The murderers are the real evil. Y’all just want to demonise her because she’s a woman.

And there was me going to say RIP.

But honestly that's terrible, hopefully she's rotting in Hell.

[The white woman whose allegations resulted
in the torture and murder of the
Black teen Emmett Till, an unpunished killing
that outraged America and fueled the civil rights
movement, has died.]


[In 1955, Till was 14 when,
while visiting family in Mississippi,
he was accused by Donham, then 21,
of making lewd comments and grabbing
her at a grocery store.

Days later, Till was kidnapped at gunpoint
by two white men.
Evidence indicated that a woman,
thought to be Donham,
identified Till to them.]


[News of Donham’s death triggered widespread
reaction online.

“Justice could have been served,”
one user tweeted. Another wrote,
“My thoughts are … with the family of Emmett Till
who worked to bring him
and Mamie Till-Mobley justice.
Please direct your love toward them today.”

Nina Turner, a progressive activist and former
Ohio state senator, wrote: “Carolyn Bryant Donham,
the white woman whose accusation
set off the lynching of Emmett Till
nearly 70 years ago, has died at 88.
She got to grow old.
Emmett Till did not get that opportunity.
Rest in power, Emmett.“]
