BREAKING NEWS

The Senate unanimously approved a bill to make lynching a federal hate crime, ending over a century of failed efforts to pass such a measure.
Monday, March 7, 2022 9:49 PM EST

The historic bill carries the name of Emmett Till, the 14-year-old Black boy tortured and murdered in Mississippi in 1955. Under the measure, the crime is punishable by up to 30 years in prison.


Do something positive.
