I think Oprah has a film and/or book through PBS on finding your African-American roots.

I once had simliar complaints from African American students who felt penalized because they could not trace their roots as far back nor use many of the genealogical sites used by whites. We had alternatives for a number of years and then finally dropped the project as our population changed. Have things changed? Doea anyone know if people like Alex Haley have helped establish better genalogical links for African Americans?
