This combination of 1955 and 2013 photos shows Emmett Till in Chicago, about six months before he was killed in Aug. 1955 while visiting relatives Mississippi, and Lil Wayne, whose real name is Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr. performing in Irvine, Calif. In 2013, Lil Wayne recorded a verse using the name of the civil rights martyr in a sexual metaphor. Till, a black teen, was killed in 1955 for allegedly whistling at a white woman.
