About This Show

Fifty years ago, the lynching of Emmett Till, a fourteen-year-old black child whose butchers walked free, opened the door to the Civil Rights Movement and justice for a persecuted population.

Blues for Mister Charlie, with its critique of social injustice and powerful depiction of how deeply the wounds of racism run, continues to speak to audiences.
