White Supremacists Caught at Emmett Till Memorial Making Propaganda Film

A small group of white supremacists gathered around the Emmett Till memorial in Tallahatchie County, Miss., on Saturday morning, carrying a Mississippi flag and a League of the South flag. They were apparently filming a propaganda video when alarms went off at the new memorial to Till, who became the victim of a white supremacist slaying when he was just 14 years old.

“We got to go now, come on,” said the bald man with the Mississippi flag who, like the others, wore a dark top and khaki pants, surveillance footage shows. He was clearly waving the rest of the group over to the get video going.

“We got to get the f-ck on,” another man agrees.

Then the filming begins.

"We are here at the Emmett Till monument that represents the Civil Rights movement for blacks. What we want to know is, where are all of the white—,” a man says while two women film. The video cuts off before he can finish his sentence.

Surveillance footage from another angle shows the group dispersing and running to the cars as alarms ring out. Watch some of that footage here and here.
