Sorry to say but necessary to be told is the shameful part of history where one race thought them selves superior to another and used degradation, pride, and perversion to assert this. Kudos to all those that were able to be a part of this life-changing event. Of course today, the worth of a human being doesn't require prompting or remembering as we all have discovered that we matter. Right after these episodes were aired, a discovery of something greater than your hopeless daily day to day existence was introduced and people started believing in themselves and that they mattered. I remember at the time this came out on TV, the black people were in desperate need of something to hope for of which Martin Luther King had supplied and had done so successfully before his death. Even today, it continues to beckon to anyone who watches the show to ask your personal questions of your own start-up. Who wouldn't find their own ancestry fascinating? That's why this was a ground-breaking event never before scene and why it captured vast audiences for decades. The concept of your beginning or the beginning that led up to you is Universal and applies to everyone.
