Produced, financed, directed, edited and probably written by ABC Television, Roots is the primary source of historical narrative and self-identity for the Plantation Negro.Reinforced by the annual psychological booster shot of "Black History Month" the Plantation Negro was led to believe that the millions of black aboriginals of North America were actually brought to this land by white people in the 17th and 18th Century via wooden sailboats, 50 and 60 at a time.
(30 Million "African-Americans" in the United States today ... and THE ONLY "AFRICAN-AMERICAN" who ever actually connected a family member to Africa was Alex Haley?)
Black people don't think of themselves as African-Americans because of "scientific" or empirical reasons.
The concept is entirely political and was introduced in the 1970's to Black Americans via a clever marketing campaign with Jesse Jackson as the spokesperson.
The small percentage of Black people who actually self-identify as "African-Americans" do so for emotional and psychological reasons. Because of television. Because of 12 years of Plantation Schooling. Because of the Thought Police.
Challenging fundamental identity assumptions like these is part of the process of breaking the bonds of mental slavery and liberating Plantation Negros from the self-denying prophesy of a history that begins and ends in slavery.
Getting off the Plantation diet is the other major part of the process.
Viva La Revolucion To Free La Plantation Negros!

How often is "Roots" televised?
It doh matta how much it ah play pon TV. It is the foundation of the African Americans view of what a slave was in the U.S. If roots had been truthful, it would have portrayed the so called "white" Scotch overseer as a slave such as many were!
The first time a saw a film in which slavery was portrayed in a major city, I was still under the plantaion spell. The slave would leave the house every evening to hang out at a local Baltimore pub with "black" and "white" abolitionists. I thought this was fiction!
The first time a read a narrative about a slave woman in Haiti, that had to walk three days to another plantation to get the remedy to heal the whole plantation, including the master and his family. I thought this could not be true. I questioned "wouldn't she run away?" Nope. She didn't.
Roots is the fiction whether one saw it or not.
Presenting Byron Thomas--the first Plantation Negro liberated by the infamous DeeVee:

Unnamed sources at the corporate headquarters of DeeVee are saying that Thomas will receive the prestigious Roger B. Taney Award at the ceremony during which DeeVee will be crowned King of the non-Afrikan Americans. Per insiders the ceremony will be patterned after the recent crowning of Eddie Long.
