Today In History Long after the Mississippi justice system gave up on the murder prosecution of Medgar Evers, Myrlie Evers kept the case alive. When Myrlie Evers was told in 1989 that new information in her late husband’s decades-old murder case was unlikely to move the gears of justice, she did not react in anger. Instead, she listened carefully as Mississippi prosecutor Bobby DeLaughter explained that the state couldn’t find any of the evidence from a past prosecution. Then, Myrlie calmly asked that his team “Just try.“ Faced with the overwhelming odds of a case with few surviving jurors, and a public that had long since seemed to move on from the tragedy, others might have backed down. Instead, Myrlie Evers fought to have the murder case reopened—a battle she had waged for 30 years. On February 5, 1994, white supremacist Byron De La Beckwith faced a more racially diverse jury, in the third trial for the murder of Medgar Evers. When the guilty verdict was read, Myrlie Evers-Williams wept. Afterwards, reported the Los Angeles Times, she jumped for joy, then looked up to the sky, saying “Medgar, I’ve gone the last mile of the way.” CARTER™️ Magazine carter-mag.com #wherehistoryandhiphopmeet #historyandhiphop365 #cartermagazine #carter #myrlieevers #medgarevers #blackhistorymonth #blackhistory #history #stayewoke https://www.instagram.com/p/CoR--X8uteh/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Remember organizers planned then all kinds of folk showed up for the #womensmarchonwashington with a groundswell all around the world. It's still early #stayewoke. #WhyWeMarch to encourage, uplift and move with each other in shedding light on the work we must still do for progress. #Leadership matters. From "Fight Like A Girl" So hold your head high Don't ever let them define The light in your eyes Love yourself, give em hell You can take on this world You just stand and be strong And then fight like a girl..." #history #tbt #leadership position #standandbestrong (at The Mall (Washington DC))

When two minds think alike in their own perspective views on what’s going on out here to many trolls deep invested in their personal but when it comes to reality realness that they post its quiet time this what’s happening the wake up call is now that six seal is real world war 3 is here martial Law is here going to see cops armed and ready every where invaded ppl glad Christopher post that book its a great read glad Robyn speaking up for shorty the system failed her because pimps and child pedophiles are glorified in the elite system wake up the secret society is real they telling and showing you (celebrities)
