Since then, the sign has been vandalized, shot at and replaced eight times. 35 days after the installation of a new sign in June 2018, it was shot at again. “I’m not surprised,” Wheeler Parker, Emmett’s cousin, said in an interview. “People fear change and when they see change coming, they will try to destroy things. You have a few people out there like that.”

Taking the quotation as a starting point and referring to material dealt with in class, write a blog post for the “Emmett Till blog” presenting inspiring examples of change concerning issues of race in the US. (30 BE)
