Emmett Till wasn't a victim even after it came out years later the woman who said he whistled at her and tried to grab her said she lied?

or even a real doctor.

My god, are you grasping at straws to paint the civil rights movement as a big sham on whites, saying Emmett Till wasn't a victim and then saying that MLK is not "even a real doctor" as if he fancied himself as a medical doctor, people who have a PHD are referred to as "Dr.", yes, I am fully aware of all the assholes who don't have a PHD nor an MD but feel it's necessary to shit talk a PHD holder and say, "they're not a real doctor".

If you think she's a liar, why does she suddenly become trustworthy once she says something that fits into your worldview?

Ooooh. Gotcha. That totally explains why there is suppressed knowledge regarding Till's father getting executed for rape in Italy.

Emmett Till's father was hanged for rape + murder by the US Army in 1945. I have trouble doubting that the apple fell too far from the tree.
