Join ETIC's Annual Fund Campaign​

To continue our work preserving the legacies and stories of Emmett Till and Mamie Till-Mobley, we're launching our annual fund campaign, chaired by Wright Thompson, author of The Barn: The Secret History of a Murder in Mississippi. Please give if you can. Read all about our annual fund campaign here.

The Emmett Till Interpretive Center preserves the story and sacred sites of Emmett Till and Mamie Till-Mobley. Through narrative, education, and memorialization, we invite people everywhere to confront the realities of 1955 and pursue reconciliation and repair—sparking a future rooted in truth, dignity, and democratic values.

​​​​

We focus on these three priorities.
