Emmett Louis Till (July 25, 1941 – August 28, 1955) was a 14-year-old African American who was lynched in Mississippi in 1955, after being accused of offending a white woman in her family's grocery store. The brutality of his murder and the fact that his killers were acquitted drew attention to the long history of violent persecution of African Americans in the United States. Till posthumously became an icon of the Civil Rights Movement.

Veteran Chicago saxophonist Ernest Dawkins preps his 'Homage to Nelson Mandela' for the Chicago Jazz Festival on Thursday night. Moreover, festival planners could not have found a much more appropriate Chicago composer to pen a reflection on Mandela's life and achievements than Dawkins. Having grown up on the South Side of Chicago, where he founded the much-admired Englewood Jazz Festival, Dawkins epitomizes what incendiary, forward-looking Chicago jazz is all about. Furthermore, he has toured often in South Africa, forming close bonds with musicians there. In "UnTill Emmett Till," Dawkins revisited the murder of 14-year-old Chicagoan Emmett Till in Mississippi in 1955. To hear Chicago vocalist Dee Alexander, singing the part of Till's mother, moaning, "Look what they did to my boy," was to make visceral contact with this tragedy.
