Beginning with the last person (woman) in the 2nd row: Maxie Gardner, Jimmy Knight, Elihu Osby, Jr., and Charles Purnell.
I was in high school in Cleveland, MS, when we got word about the murder of Emmett Till. [Cleveland is about thirty-five miles from Money, where Till was abducted.]
I had heard growing up that you weren't supposed to look at a white woman eye-to-eye, nor a white person. You're expected to look down, and I don't recall ever doing that. What I developed very early in life, I was just as important as they were, and I had no need to look.
