Answer:

D. Because of his upbringing, he did not act how white southerners expected blacks to act, so his murderers singled him out as a sign of unwanted racial progress.

Explanation:

Emmett Till, a 14 years old boy was killed in the summer of 1955 Mississippi , in when he went to visit his uncle Mose Wright. His growth in Chicago, in a predominantly black neighborhood made him unaware of how deep racial prejudice was.

He had confidence that he was as good as the whites and that made Bob Bryant and his friends more furious at him. They were not happy that he could confidently challenge them and this resulted in his brutal murder.
