Okay, guys, this is part three. Let's get into this.

One of the worst things that people can hear about themselves is that they are racist. But if a person votes for someone that puts racist policies in place, then why shouldn't that voter also be considered racist.

In August of 1955, two men kidnapped Emmitt Till and brutally killed him. Those two men would go to trial in September of that same year. After the trial was over and the evidence deliberated by the jury, those two men were acquitted by an all-white, all-male jury despite overwhelming evidence against those men. All the men that participated in the murder trial of Emmitt Till had at least two things in common with him. They were all males, and they had all been 14 years old once and no one on the jury could see themselves as 14-year-old kid. Whiteness won.
