Answer:
I assume you are referring to Jessica McBirney's article "Emmett Till". If that's the case, the two correct statements are C
) The national attention received by Emmett Till’s murder embarrassed many Southerners into fighting for racial equality and E
) Emmett Till’s death turned him into a symbol of America’s racial injustice, inspiring many to promote equality for all.
Explanation:
After Bryant and Milam admitted to killing the boy without showing any regret, there were various reactions - both positive and negative. <u>Some Southerners did condemn their act as well as American justice system that set them free.</u> Also, <u>Emmett's death did fuel the Civil Rights movement, inspiring Rosa Parks' famous act of civil disobedience, as well as the Montgomery Bus Boycott that ensued</u>.
The statement A) doesn't stand because <u>Emmett wasn't just a random innocent boy who got unlucky</u>. He was killed because of his race, which probably wouldn't have happened if he had been a white boy.
B) is slightly misleading because <u>it wasn't only Mississippi that changed its justice system</u>. The changes were systematic and happened at the federal level.
D) isn't correct because <u>Emmett wasn't a random victim of "some" people's hate and fear</u>. If we put it like that, it would relativize the crime.
Finally, F) isn't correct because <u>not all Southerners thought he deserved to die</u>. Only these particular Southerners, Bryant and Milam, did. Even though racism was prevalent in the South, it doesn't mean that all Southerners were racists - or that all of them would have done the same.
