"Biden's Proclamation: National Monument Honoring Emmett Till to be Established"

President Joe Biden will establish a national monument honoring Emmett Till, the Black teenager who was lynched in Mississippi in 1955. The monument will be created across three sites in Illinois and Mississippi, protecting places central to Till's life, death, and his mother's activism. Biden's decision comes at a time of racial tension in the United States, with conservative leaders pushing back against the teaching of slavery and Black history. The monument will be the fourth created by Biden since taking office, and it follows his signing of the Emmett Till Anti-Lynching Act into law earlier this year.
