The Emmy-winning actor will play Mose Wright, Emmett Till’s great uncle who's a sharecropper, minister and proud family man. Wright's testimony in the trial over Till's lynching death is considered one of the bravest moments of the Civil Rights Movement -- one of the first times a Black man stood up in court and accused a white man of a crime.
