Answer:
The murder of Emmett Till is an example of the Civil Rights movement because he was accused of physically assaulting a white lady. It's not 100% clear what he did, but it's believed that he dog whistled. The whistling may have been inappropriate, but for Emmett to later be killed in such a gruesome way he was, was also not right, and that would never have happened to white boy if he did the same thing. The Civil Rights movement was when black people wanted more and fair rights to white people. This is how the Emmett Till murder relates to the Civil rights movement.
250 years of slavery. 90 years of Jim Crow. 60 years of separate but equal. 35 years of racist housing policy. Until we reckon with our compounding moral debts, America will never be whole.
Answer:
I do believe that people can choose to be happy. While it might be difficult for some, I think everyone can choose happiness. A prime example of this can be found in an excerpt from the diary of Anne Frank. She says "Think of all the beauty that's still left in and around you and be happy." Anne Frank wrote this quote during the horrible conditions that took place during the holocaust. During this time it would have been very hard for most people to remain happy. Despite these odds, she was able to find joy in her surroundings and within herself. For this reason, I believe that people can choose to be happy.
Hope this helps :)
