Joyous racist murderers
Photo from the show "Black & Brown People/ White Problems,'' at the Samson Projects gallery, Boston, through Aug, 19. In this picture, from left to right: Roy Bryant, Carolyn Bryant, Juanita Milam, and J. W. Milam embrace after the men's acquittal by an all-white male jury of the charge of having kidnapped, beaten and murdered Emmett Till, a 14 year-old black boy in 1955 – a crime that the two men confessed to in an interview in 1956, paid for by Look magazine, and in which they showed no remorse.
