Fun fact:

Emmett Till’s father was executed by the US army for raping Italian women during WW2.

Yes, I know. I’m not sure that condemns Emmett Till to death for whistling at a white woman.

On the other hand, he’s long dead and Dr. Romano is an idiot.

I just like to throw that out there; just a random bit of information.

Apple falls close to the tree, so to speak.

So I guess you think Till should have been lynched?

Nice people we have here. Phew.

I think you are making an assumption, and when you assume facts not in evidence,you make an ass out of you and me, but mostly you.

Sad this man is a doctor.

He should give his ‘privilege’ to some deserving ,minority’. Of course he won’t do that.

Then you should have clearly stated how you felt about Till rather than saying he fell from the same tree which, again, implies that you believe he deserved the same fate as his father. You do know that the allegations against the father are in dispute?

3 MDs in the family. Our “white privilege’ earned us lower spots in the admissions and residency sweepstakes in favor of those with more color in their skin. We worked for everything we got, no free education or scholarships for the color of our skin. No special tutoring or consideration. Yup our white privilege really made the road easy /s

What I know is that the US Army found Till’s father guilty in a court of law of raping at least one Italian woman, and that he was suspected of raping at least one more, and was a suspect in the murder of an Italian woman.

Remember most of those women graduating are going to be nurses.
