“Yes Roots is a book everyone should read, still some people today still think this did not happen to our ancestors. I enfisize to my children to have there children read and learn about there history. We will never let this happen again!!”
“As a white woman born mid 80s in australia. African americans and slavery was something learned at school in passing but not very well understood. I feel enriched from reading this book. And i hate the fact that many of my peers have not read this and have only a vague idea of what has come before us.”
“This is my all time favourite book. It is an eye opener against slavery”
“It is the best book i ever read. The values are very nicely depicted.”
“really a heart touching book...The author has explained the plight of all the blacks in the 17th century...”
“This book reflexes the dark history of america, those who were brought from africa to build the new world should be remembered by their grands, still america exploits other but in a new way, it considers itself as if it owns the world,blacks treated in america as unhuman . blacks should not forget thier home land for their ancestors, they should remember what their grands fathers being treated by thier masters,though most of blacks have white grand fathres but not from marriage but from raping their slaves servants , this is a great social problems, it is hard to call them illigtimates, this the crisis which bad america created.”
“I read this book long time back but still clearly remember the way writer wrote about Africa , it's beauty and lannscape ,when i read it, I felt Im' travelling with him and I guess that's the beauty of this book , it wud touch ur soul . . May be coz it's a semi autobiography ....”
“Over 30 years ago, Roots many African ancestored folks on a journey to find and understand their family origins.Having read the book and watched the subsequent TV mini-series, I came away with a heightened sense of pride and dignity concerning my People.When a book such as Alex Haley's Roots can move a nation, in fact - the world, to tears and reflection, it becomes an Instant Classic.Peace,"Guided by the Ancestors"”
