Emmett Till was an African American teenager who originally was born in Chicago, but in 1955 he went to Mississippi to see some of his family. Remember that during this time, Southern states like Mississippi had enacted Jim Crow laws. These laws kept blacks and whites separate, as a lot of Southern whites were still very racist during this time. Since Emmett was from Chicago, he was not used to these Jim Crow laws and did not know how different he should act around white people.
While visiting his family in Mississippi, Emmett went to the store. This was when he came in contact with a white woman, who reported that he whistled at her and said inappropriate things. This white woman ended up telling her husband what happened, which she came out years later and said she lied about. This resulted in her husband and somebody else to kidnap, torture, and murder the young teenage boy.
During Emmett Till's funeral, his mother wanted his body to be an open casket. Keep in mind that his body was badly tortured and messed up because of what happened to him, but she still wanted to have his body be an open casket. She said, "I wanted the world to see what they did to my baby." She wanted to show the world the awful things that had happened to her son, just because of his skin color.

What issues raised in the Seven Years' War continue to be important to people in Canada today? Why?
Answer:
The Seven Years' War was a conflict between France and Great Britain that took place between 1756 and 1763, and faced both European powers and their allies in various territories, including North America.
In North America, both nations had colonies of considerable importance: France had the colony of New France in what is now Quebec, Canada; while Great Britain had its Thirteen Colonies on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean. The two nations were vying for control of the Great Lakes. Thus, when the war broke out, the colonies of both countries faced each other over the disputed territories, ending with the British victory and the cession by France of all the territories of it on the continent.
Even so, the population of Quebec continued to maintain its customs (its Latin culture, its Catholic religion against British Anglicanism and, fundamentally, its French language). This situation was maintained over the years, and today it is possible to observe in Canada a bilingualism at the national level, with the French language being predominant in the province of Quebec, and the English language in the rest of the country.
