I think that Finding Your Roots is one of the best shows on PBS. Frankly, I am in awe of Mr Gates, I am so moved by the histories and stories of our ancestors and have actually been in tears many times as his guests react to their histories. The question is, when will we have learned enough about hate and suffering ? There is still so much unfairness happening it is hard to understand why. In any event, I think that this show is one of easiest ways to learn how resilient humans are, and how brave so many people have been just to persevere, and to go on to live good lives.
Thank you Mr. Gates, your show is about so much more than entertainment.
