Many Black South Africans don't know the story of Emmett Till.

His story is the story I will tell my Black ass son when he's around 8 or 9. Just so he understands the danger that is YT women. So he will know to play as far as possible.

YT women are dangerous.

/A Thread
In the summer of 1955, 14 yr old Emmett Till went to visit his great-uncle and cousins in the small town of Money, Mississippi.

He was a Black boy who had grown up in Chicago, a fun-loving prankster who "loved to make people laugh," according to one friend.
Emmett was unprepared for the rigidly-maintained racial order in the South, where Blacks were expected to display constant deference to whites or else face violent reprisal.

Three days after he arrived in Mississippi, Emmett entered a Grocery store to buy a pack of bubblegum..
Carolyn Bryant, the white woman who was working behind the counter, alleged that Emmett had wolf-whistled at her, grabbed her around the waist and uttered obscenities.

Bryant told her husband, Roy Bryant, that Emmett had made sexual advances toward her.
Four days later he and his half-brother J.W. Milam kidnapped Emmett from his uncle's house in the middle of the night.

They beat the 14 yr old boy mercilessly. Gouged out one of his eyes, shot and killed him. They tied his body to a large industrial fan and dumped him in a river
When Till's corpse was salvaged from the river three days later, he was recognizable only by the ring he wore, which had belonged to his father. His remains were sent to his mother with the coffin nailed shut..
His mother Mamie Bradley made the brave decision to hold an open-casket funeral. Jetmagazine published pictures of Bradley with her son's mutilated corpse, which excited outrage and horror from the broader public. She said she felt she had to "let the world see what has happened"
Calls for justice throughout the country led to the indictment of Roy Bryant and J.W. Milam, whose trial for Emmett's kidnapping and murder began on September 22, 1955.

Because women and Black people were barred from serving on juries in Mississippi at that time..
The defendants were tried before an all-male, all-white jury.

At great personal risk, Emmett's great-uncle Mose Wright took the stand and identified Bryant and Milam as the men who kidnapped his nephew.
Hundreds of reporters and all three television networks came to the small Mississippi town.

The courtroom was segregated, and many outside observers were surprised at the informal conduct of the sheriff, who casually used racial slurs..

In court 👇🏿 The killers nice and relaxed
In his closing statements, defense attorney for the whyt killers advised the jury that if they convicted Bryant and Milam for Till's murder, "Your ancestors will turn over in their grave, and I'm sure every last Anglo-Saxon one of you has the courage to free these men!"
The jury deliberated for just sixty-six minutes before acquitting both men.

"We wouldn't have taken so long if we hadn't stopped to drink pop," said one juror.

They killed a young Black boy and were set free..

A Black mother lost her son.

All because a white woman lied.
Because YT women are views as more valuable and more worthy of protection, their feelings are continually prioritised and their narrative believed over others.

It's still the same way today.

WW are aware of their privileged status and use it to manipulate..
YT women will resort to the damsel in distress archetype of white female innocence and victimhood when challenged.

They are dangerous.
