The mother of Emmett Till recounts the story of her life, her son's tragic death, and the dawn of the civil rights movement--with a foreword by the Reverend Jesse L. Jackson, Sr. In August 1955, a fourteen-year-old African American, Emmett Till, was visiting family in Mississippi when he was kidnapped from his bed in the middle of the night by two white men and brutally murdered. His crime: allegedly whistling at a white woman in a convenience store. The killers were eventually acquitted. What followed altered the course of this country's history--and it was all set in motion by the sheer will, determination, and courage of Mamie Till-Mobley, whose actions galvanized the civil rights movement, leaving an indelible mark on our racial consciousness. Death of Innocence is an essential document in the annals of American civil rights history, and a painful yet beautiful account of a mother's ability to transform tragedy into boundless courage and hope. Praise for Death of Innocence "A testament to the power of the indestructible human spirit that] speaks as eloquently as the diary of Anne Frank."--The Washington Post Book World "With this important book, Mamie Till-Mobley] has helped ensure that the story of her son (and her own story) will not soon be forgotten. . . . A riveting account of a tragedy that upended her life and ultimately the Jim Crow system."--Chicago Tribune "The book will . . . inform or remind people of what a courageous figure for justice Mamie Till-Mobley] was and how important she and her son were to setting the stage for the modern-day civil rights movement."--The Detroit News "Poignant . . . In his mother's descriptions, Emmett becomes more than an icon; he becomes a living, breathing youngster--any mother's child."--Pittsburgh Post-Gazette "Powerful . . . Mamie Till-Mobley's] courage transformed her loss into a moral compass for a nation."--Black Issues Book Review Robert F.

Turmeric curcumin & black pepper
These capsules come in a freshness and safety sealed bottle. They’re pretty large, but the vegan cellulose capsules swallow easily with a little water. A serving is 3 capsules, You really smell the black pepper extract and turmeric when you open the bottle.
The suggested use is to take them 20-30 minutes before a meal.

This is a good one
I really like these for inflammation reduction. That means a more comfortable, more pain-free body. I feel less achy when using these and that helps me through my day. They don't need to be taken (by me anyway) every day. These generally keep the aches and pains beat back so I have more comfortable movement and feel the effects of getting older noticeably less. They just help me feel generally more healthy.

"Solid credentials and nice presentation"...
The product presents as a professional well made product. The site page could be improved a tad with details just to match up with the product received.
"FDA registered" is a requirement so it's not an over-and-beyond move. However, GMP certified and 3rd party lab tested are and are nice pluses.
Capsule size is MEDIUM.
MG per capsule is 600 MG or more based on the label which is pretty good. Black pepper is known to aid in absorption so you always want to see that with turmeric and some other supplements that benefit from its addition.
Made in the USA is great. Ingredients are sourced domestically and globally. It would be nice to know where they come from outside of the USA.
This is a very solid option for turmeric.

Add these if you like to keep things moving 😉
Size: 81 Count (Pack of 1)
The taste is good but not great lol I take iron and sometimes it makes me a bit constipated so adding these to my everyday keeps things moving. No side effects. Easy chewing sometimes they clump together in the bottle but a good shake gets them apart.
