Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Prominent African American scholar Henry Louis Gates, Jr., traced Oprahs roots and shares the lessons of her ancestorsthe legacy one generation bequeaths another, how who we are is influenced by the paths our ancestor have trod, and the extraordinary impact that even the most humble among us can have on future generations through the simple process of building a life for our loved ones.In Finding Oprahs Roots, Henry Louis Gates, Jr., shines a searchlight into the shadows that have enveloped African American ancestry. By assembling an elite team of historians and geneticists in coordination with his well-received PBS documentary and using Oprah and her forebears as his chief example, Gates unveils a process akin to resurrection.Literally, those who were denied identitynameless slaves who died believing their ancestors would never know themhave their identities restored here through a dazzling array of search methods. Acting as a roadmap through the intricacies of public documents and online databases, this book also highlights genetic testing resources that can make it possible to know ones distant tribal roots in Africa.Oprahs path back to the past was profoundly illuminating, connecting the narrative of her family to the larger American narrative and anchoring her in a way not previously possible. For the reader, Finding Oprahs Roots offers the possibility of an equally rewarding experience. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
