No thanks. I saw the original, the Next Generation series, and the Queen series, probably more than once. Enough is enough.

Was there not a time when this story was exposed as “made up”?

I was a slave from an early age and trust me, my folks didn’t pay me much. Then it was my uncle Sam, who also didn’t pay me much either. Since then it has been an assortment of employers and finally I make some decent money, but trust me, I worked for every dime I ever made and so could and should every black since slavery was stamped out.

History Channel?

No. That’s been disproved. Repeatedly.

Have no interest, I did not watch much of the original one.
Then you find out that Alex Haley, made up and plagiarized mush of the book to begin with.

I wonder if Kunta Kenti will be captured by the evil white slave hunters again this time around, or if they will tell it like it was and have him captured by the Islamic slave hunters?

WTF?!

you can end any debate with any of the white guilt goons by saying-” I never owned any slaves, and you never picked any cotton .” Then just walk away.

Too bad the film won’t show the Democrat party involvement in the issue.

I never owned slaves. No one alive in the USA today ever lived under slavery. I don't owe them a cent or an apology. I am not obligated to feel guilt for my existence, or for whatever they imagine I represent.

I'm sick of this anti-white racism. I already can't stand basketball, football, boxing, or any movie with a black racist in a leading role (that's about all of them these days).

When are they going to do “white roots,” the story of the Irish indentured slaves?

They can call it: Potato

Saw the original. Have zero plans to watch the latest rendition.

Stirring the pot, again.

Roots! Now with all White Cast!
The one you’ve been waiting for!
The true story of how a young indentured servant
from Sweden Bjorn-Bjorn came to America
changed his name to Bill Smith and created any empire
out of pickled lutefisk.
You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll see yourself and your
swedish beginnings as you never have before.

A 3 night special not to be missed, coming soon to
broadway as a hit musical!!!

Hear the Opening song on KSWD...”Lutfisk is Ya”.

It was one of the earlier ‘hoaxes’ perpetrated on TV audiences.

I’m guessing O.J. Simpson isn’t in this one.
