President Biden signs the Emmett Till anti-lynching law
@VideoMattPresents President Biden signs the Emmett Till anti-lynching law.
ICYMI Emmett Till accuser Carolyn Bryant is still alive. She's in her 80s + admitted she lied.
President Biden on Tuesday signed into law the Emmett Till Antilynching Act to make lynching a federal hate crime, in a historic first that comes after more than a century of failed efforts against racial violence.
“Hundreds, hundreds of similar bills have failed to pass over the years,” Biden said at a ceremony in the Rose Garden after he signed the bill at the White House. “Several federal hate crime laws were enacted … But no federal law expressly prohibited lynching. None until today.”
The new law amends the U.S. Code to designate lynching a hate crime punishable by up to 30 years in prison. More than 4,000 people, mostly African Americans, were reported lynched in the United States from 1882 to 1968, in all but a handful of states. Ninety-nine percent of perpetrators escaped state or local punishment.
They're banning historical facts in classrooms because they don't want their grandkids to see them in a history lesson and have to answer questions about lynching + white supremacy.

The Emmett Till Antilynching Act was introduced in 2019 by Rep. Bobby L. Rush (D-Ill.) in the House and Sens. Cory Booker (D-N.J.) and Tim Scott (R-S.C.) in the Senate. It is named for the 14-year-old Black boy whose brutal torture and killing in Mississippi in 1955 sparked the civil rights movement.
On Tuesday, Biden paid tribute to the Till family for finding “purpose through your pain” — and also emphasized that the law was not just about past crimes but about those who remain victims of racial hatred.
“Racial hate is an old problem. It’s a persistent problem,” Biden said. “Hate never goes away. It only hides, it hides under the rocks. Given just a little bit of oxygen, it comes roaring back out, screaming.”
Biden and Vice President Harris both also paid tribute to Ida B. Wells, a Black investigative journalist who in the late 1800s and early 1900s documented the barbaric nature of lynching in extensive detail. (In 2020, Wells was posthumously awarded a Pulitzer Prize special citation for her work.)
