Emmett Louis Till, was a 14-year-old African American who was lynched in Mississippi in 1955, after being accused of offending a white woman in her family's grocery store. The brutality of his murder and the fact that his killers were acquitted drew attention to the long history of violent persecution of African Americans in the United States.

Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka was a landmark 1954 Supreme Court case in which the Supreme Court ruled unanimously that racial segregation of children in public schools was unconstitutional. Brown v. Board of Education was one of the cornerstones of the civil rights movement. It helped establish the precedent that “separate-but-equal” was, in fact, equal at all.
