What if the land could speak? What if the truth has always been buried-waiting to be unearthed? In Township 22, Adrian L. Brooks takes you on a haunting and powerful journey into the heart of Mississippi's Delta, where the brutal murder of 14-year-old Emmett Till didn't just shock a nation-it left scars in the soil that still haven't healed.
