Media and Murder: Why do we have to see it to believe it?| American Experience | PBS

American Experience presents a virtual PAST FORWARD conversation examining the role of the media in shaping public perception around the murders of Black Americans. This conversation is inspired, in part, by our streaming documentary 'The Murder of Emmett Till.' Our panelists will discuss how publicity of racial violence and murder can both force society to confront it and reinforce a system of oppression. They will explore the responsibility and power of the media, the progress that has been made, and how institutions can change to protect Black lives from racist hatred and violence—starting with Emmett Till’s murder and bringing us through today. Featured Guests: Danielle McGuire PhD: award-winning historian, public speaker and author of At the Dark End of the Street: Black Women, Rape and Resistance-a New History of the Civil Rights Movement from Rosa Parks to the Rise of Black Power (Knopf) Allissa Richardson: Professor of Journalism at USC Annenberg and author of Bearing Witness While Black: African Americans, Smartphones and the New Protest #Journalism This conversation will be moderated by Kahlil Greene, the Gen-Z Historian and Yale's first Black student body president. -- Learn more about American Experience: https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/americanexpe...
