African American Lives 2 (DVD)

Trace the roots of African-Americans.

In February 2006, the PBS series African American Lives narrated by acclaimed Harvard professor Henry Louis Gates, showed the results of extensive genealogical searches of prominent African Americans, including composer and producer Quincy Jones, talk show host Oprah Winfrey and comedian Chris Tucker. Reaction to the show spurred thousands of black Americans to begin or renew the search, especially with the help of DNA testing, to find their origins. Gates and PBS have teamed up for a sequel that aired in February 2008, but this version will have a twist: A member of the general public will be selected to have his or her genealogical roots traced. The winner's story will be told along with those of several celebrities, including Chris Rock, Morgan Freeman, Tom Joyner Maya Angelou, Don Cheadle and others.
