Rosanna Grace
- Producer
The book "Emmett Till: The Murder That Shocked the World and Propelled the Civil Rights Movement," written by Devery S. Anderson was optioned by Rosanna Grace and Nicole Tab at Serendipity Group Inc. in 2015. David B. Clark, Alex Foster, and John Powers Middleton soon came on board as executive producers. Independently that same year, Jay-Z, Jay Brown, Will Smith, Ty Ty Smith, James Lassiter, Aaron Kaplan, and Dana Honor made a deal for a miniseries about the Till case, and soon the two groups merged their projects and "Women of the Movement" was born. Filming took place in Greenwood, Mississippi, and Memphis, Tennessee, and wrapped in April 2021.
