Artist T.D. Anderson Depicts Mamie Till Mobley’s Courageous Stand
Thank you for listening to the second installment in this eight-episode series! Today I”m honored to share with you my December 2020 interview with the inspiring and immensely talented Kentucky-based artist T.D. Anderson. We discussed Anderson’s poignant two-panel painting, Pietа: “Woman, Behold Your Son; Behold Your Mother”, which, together with Anderson’s sermonic essays, explores the courage and grief of Mamie Till Mobley. Mobley was the mother of Emmett Till, a 14-year-old, African American boy from Chicago who was lynched in Money, Mississippi in 1955 and became a galvanizing symbol in the Civil Rights Movement. July 24, 2021 would have been Emmett Till’s 80th birthday. Listeners can view Anderson’s painting at TDAndersonArt.com, and visit her blog at Soulascriptura.com
