Reviews
"Walked by this statue smelled like someone smeared their dog's dung on it."
"Not really fan of the craftsmanship"
"Beautiful statue that pays homage to Emmett Till!"
"Beautiful statue and sobering tribute. We have deep roots in Greenwood, but it's changed dramatically from my memories of family reunions and family visits. The Emmett Till statue is a bright spot. It was worth traveling out of our way to see. Maybe it will be an impetus for additional development and we can linger there on future visits."
"Easy to follow"
