520 "In 1955, Emmett Till was lynched when he was 14 years
old. That remains an undisputed fact of the case that
ignited a flame within the civil rights movement that has
yet to be extinguished. Yet the rest of the details
surrounding the case remain distorted by time and too many
tellings. What does justice mean in the resolution of a 66
year-old cold case? In A Few Days Full of Trouble, this
question drives a new telling of the story of Emmett Till,
relayed by his cousin and best friend-the Reverend Wheeler
Parker, Jr., a survivor of the night of terror when 14-
year-old Emmett was taken from his family's rural
Mississippi Delta home in the dead of night"--|cProvided
