Ubi Goldberg joins new film Till, telling about the injustice of black people

Black movie star Ubi Goldberg, who hasn't appeared on the big screen for a long time, has plans for a new work. It is understood that she joined Till. Joining the crew with one of them is the young actor Danielle Dedwyler.

Till is adapted from a famous black incident in American history. In 1955, 14-year-old Emmert Till traveled from Chicago to Mississippi to visit relatives. He was accused of harassing a white female clerk in a small grocery store. She was brutally beaten to death by two white villains and threw her body into a river. Tyre's body was found only three days later, and he couldn't bear to gamble. However, his mother insisted on holding a funeral to open the coffin, so that the tragedy of his son was known to the world and was widely reported.

In the end, Tyre's experience became one of the fuse for the blacks to fight for their own equal rights in the 1960s. In 2008, the white woman who accused her of consciously died soon and confessed in the hospital bed. She claimed that part of the testimony that "Tyle grabbed her arm and attacked herself with gossip" was a lie. In the trial, the three people who testified in court either moved or changed their names to ensure their own safety.

At present, the director of the film is Chi Na Ye Chuku, who is also a black female director.
