Love
I like this app as it keeps the history of what happened to Emmett Till alive. We should never forget.
Great
I love it
Eye Opening
A truly powerful story laid out in a very easy to navigate manner
Impressive and informative
Accessible to a range of users, this app simulated the joy of historical discovery, offering multiple points of view about this important historical moment in the history of the civil rights movement.
Valuable
Sure wish I’d known about this app a week ago when I was in the Delta because finding the markers and following the story is not easy. As the app points out, parts of the story have been ignored in favor of telling the Tallahatchie County part it; this app takes us further.
Must See American History
Important story of one of the catalysts of the Civil Rights Movement. Fantastic interview on @AmericanHistoyTellers podcast on Wondery introduces the app and the through line from Emmett Till, Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King, to resurgent White Supremacy Domestic Terrorism.
Invaluable
Emmet Till’s story holds the same gravity in US history as that of Rosa Parks and MLK; it is a non-negotiable lesson. The fact that his story, chronicled by leading scholars, is available for anyone in this interactive format, is huge. Two semesters ago, I was a student in the class of one of the collaborators on this project. We were lucky to learn firsthand from a scholar of Till’s story, and I can say the academic passion driving this project is amazing. I can only hope that this app reaches the front page of the App Store.
