So my issue with #FindingYourRoots is that it features people who have more resources than most to do this privately. This show would be way more impactful & interesting if they focused on people who can’t actually do this on their own. When scholars chase ratings we all lose.
I learned about the Armenian Genocide from Chris Bohjalian, who I hope watches the story of JOE MANGANIELLO’s family on #FindingYourRoots with Henry Louis Gates Jr. Heartbreaking important history. PBS
Skip is trying to sell love stories and Angela Davis and Jeh Johnson are saying, absolutely NOT
#FindingYourRoots
I need Henry Louis Gates Jr. to start a new series in conjunction with #FindingYourRoots called the Reparations Project to link Black ppl to their distant white “relatives” so they can compensate for back pay and set up a repayment plan.
Black people are OWED reparations.
#AntiquesRoadshow #FindingYourRoots crossover event! We need it. Two best shows on tv hands down.

“Do you know what you’re looking at? That is a list of the passengers on the Mayflower.”
Our researchers discovered #AngelaDavis ’s ancestors traveled to the US on the Mayflower and here is her reaction. #FindingYourRoots
Conservatives don't want you to know that white slave owners raped their female slaves to produce more slaves, so they didn't have to buy them. They also don't want you to know that children were slaves.

I wish this episode was required in school, instead, we’re trying to erase this history #FindingYourRoots
