Book Reviews of Death of Innocence: The Story of the Hate Crime That Changed America

Book Review: seen thought a mothers eyes
Summary: 5 Stars

a truthful heartbreaking story told by the mother of emmett till. one of the worst cases of unfair justice in the world. nothing can ever change what happened, but we can learn from it and hope and pray that some thing like this never happenes again. the film to kill a mockingbird had nothing on this true life case. i hope and pray that emmett and his mother mamie are at last united in heaven, save in each others arms. how his mother kept her sanity after this is beyond belief, but she did and formed the emmett till players in memory of him, a truly beautiful mother in every sence of the word...God bless you mamie for opening our eyes to racial hate and showing how to respond with love and forgivness.....
