The Emmett Till Legacy Foundation and other national organizations joined together to help launch The Never Again Movement and Pledge as they commemorated the 55th Anniversary of the death of Christopher.pdfEmmett Till (whose kidnapping at age 14, brutal murder, confessed murders acquittal, open casket funeral, sparked outrage around the world and the modern civil rights movement) on August 27-28th 2010, in Chicago, IL.

They are encouraging all generations and those across the world, who are conscious of the rise of racism, hatred and modern day lynching and it's impact on youth and future generations, to pledge to never again allow racism, hatred, injustice and crimes against youth to occur.

Out of respect of the past, they have adopted the "Never Again" campaign slogan respectful of the atrocities of the Holocaust, Genocide in Dar fur and Apartheid in South Africa. We should never forget what has happened there and never allow it to happen again.
Likewise, They strongly feel that "Never Again" can also inspire much needed unified action of those of all generations in the U.S. and across the world as we remember Emmett Till, the victims of 9/11and many others who have lost their lives because of hate.

The Emmett Till Legacy Foundation and Never Again Movement Team are asking you to Support the "Never Again" Movement and make the pledge by asking your friends/ associates and family members, those you respect and love to join you in making the pledge and announcing it at your meetings, national conventions, concerts, gatherings, churches, other places of worship, homes and communities.

The "NEVER AGAIN" Pledge:
I pledge to "Never Again" allow the ugly parts of our past history to become the present. I will forever stand up against racism, hatred, injustice and crimes against our youth........I will always stand up for peace, justice and equality for all.
