Days after his arrival, tragedy strikes and Mamie is faced with a mother’s worst nightmare when her son goes missing.”

“Only Skin”: “After receiving the call that her son was kidnapped by white men in Mississippi, Mamie rallies her community in Chicago to bring Emmett home. As a result, Mamie is thrust into the spotlight while facing unimaginable tragedy.”
