After Emmett Till 's murder on August 28 1955 at the age of 14, Mamie Till-Mobley insisted that the Casket containing his body be left open, to show the world what the murderers had done to her child. She died of Heart Failure in 2003, aged 81; the same year her autobiography (written with Christoper Benson), Death of Innocence: The Story of Hate Crime that Changed America, was published.
