Emmett Till cause of death

edit

This article says that Louis Till's son Emmett was tortured to death. The Emmett Till article, while mentioning that young Emmett was beaten by his murderers, suggests that he died from being shot in the head, not from the torture. One of the articles needs to be corrected; I am not sure which one since I can't presently run down the Whitfield page 117 source cited in the article.

@2603:8080:f600:27a2:8903:3321:19bc:fa57: I made some changes to the content we were (slightly) disputing over, my reasoning is below.

The last sentence of the first paragraph: I don't think it's needed point blank, it looks like it'd fit better on the Emmett Till article itself, as it's about Emmett Till's murder, and subsequent (attempted) justification, not so much about his father. I'd love to be proven wrong about this though, as I think it's good information (/srs)

The sentence in the final paragraph: It seems redundant, and reads a little bit like a young student's book report, as it just serves to justify the earlier sentence, without really adding anything to the section. (/lh)

I look forward to how you and I improve this article further :D Isro! (talk) 19:07, 1 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
