[quote=Anonymous]I was in high school and vividly remember that everyone was watching it and talking about it. For me, whose high school history class consisted of memorizing civil war battles, dates, and names of generals, it was so eye-opening to the realities of our country's history and slavery. The scene where Kizzy is sold away from her parents was heart-shattering. So many great acting performances in that series too. I honestly became so interested in US history after watching Roots that I started reading many history books after that. Especially since I learned nothing in my high school classes![/quote]
