| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study examined the politics of memory in the U.S. history of racial violence through the case study of the murder of Emmett Till in 1955. By closely scrutinizing recent commemorative efforts in Chicago, Mississippi and Washington, D.C., the study clarified how public memory and vernacular memories (or national memory and local memories) of the incident have been formed over decades. It also explored the way African American vernacular memories have been maintained and/or discontinued over generations.
