In a new bout of far-left, pseudo-liberal virtue signaling, Joe Biden is going to build a national monument for Emmett Till.

An anonymous White House official disclosed over the past weekend that the Biden administration will erect a monument in honor of Emmett Till. This was a black 14-year-old boy from Chicago, who was tortured and killed after allegedly whistling at a white woman in her family’s store in Mississippi.

On Tuesday, an anniversary of Till’s birthday in 1941, Biden is expected to sign a proclamation for the construction of the monument. This will also honor the boy’s mother, Mamie Till-Mobley, and cover three sites in two states – Mississippi and Illinois, New York Post reports.

The future monument will cover places that were important in Till’s life, along with his mother’s public activism and the acquittal of two men accused of killing him, the report informs.

Jet magazine’s publication of photos showing Emmett Till’s mutilated corpse helped boost the Civil Rights Movement in the 1950s and 1960s.

Conservative pundits and other social media users slammed the Biden administration over the Emmett Till monument. They believe it’s yet another virtue-signaling Democratic push that would do nothing to alleviate the nation’s culture wars.

Others have pointed out that Emmett Till’s father, Louis Till, was court-martialed in Italy during World War II and executed for allegedly committing two rapes and the murder of a woman.

The leaked plans of the Biden administration come after last Friday. This is when Vice President Kamala Harris attacked Florida over a black history curriculum mentioning that enslaved African-Americans learned skills during slavery.

The new African-American studies course was approved by Florida’s Board of Educators under an order by Republican Governor Ron DeSantis.

Responding to Harris’ criticism, DeSantis said he didn’t participate in the drafting of the new educational requirements, but defended the parts that she criticized, arguing everything on the curriculum is “rooted” in what happens to be “factual.”
