Why was Emmett Till’s murder and the “not guilty” verdict of his killers were such a spark for the Civil Rights Movement?

Emmett Till's murder was such a spark in the civil rights movement because there was proof that Emmett was not guilty of what the people accused him of, he was only 14 years old at the time of his death and because the people that killed him admitted in a national newspaper that they killed him and were still found not guilty.

        i'm fairly sure that the correct answers are 2 and 3.

        i used both my knowledge of world history and the process of elimination to obtain these answers. option 1 cannot be a possible selection because the mandate of heaven belongs to ancient chinese philosophical belief. option 4 sounds like it would benefit the region than detriment it. however, both 2 and 3 explain a potential reason for what could have contributed to the fall of the roman empire.

      hope this ! if i were you, i'd get a second opinion, because i haven't taken this course for a year. best of luck!
