The story was plagiarized from a white author. Alex Haley lost in court.

What's funny is the liberals never talk about this. It was  conveniently hidden under the rug. To most people Alex Haley Roots is what started the white guilt movement in America. Little do people know he made up a lot stuff about his Roots.

You're over-simplyfying the idiocy behind all the cheap-ass virtue signaling in the US.

Europe, as one example, has far fewer black people and no history of plantation-type slavery---at least for the past 300 years. Yet the amount of off-the-chart political correctness and mindless dishonest liberalism in that part of the world is one-upping similar trends here in America.

Most of the stupidity in Europe just so happens to involve mainly Muslim immigrants instead of what Alex Haley and his story - fake or otherwise - was all about.

Libtardism is the main aspect of all this bullshit, and it's a defect found in humans throughout the world.

Original Message For most people the beginning of the seeds of white guilt began with Roots by Alex Haley tv series in 1977.
It seems like Alex Haley made a lot of stuff up about his ancestors.
Americans have been lied to again!

What's truly amazing, however, is that "Roots" is receiving a reverential tribute at all. For while the miniseries was a remarkable - and important - piece of television,
the book on which it was based has now been widely exposed as a historical
hoax.

Unfortunately, the general public is largely unaware of how Haley's monumental family autobiography, stretching back to 18th-century Africa, has been discredited.

Conclusion

Alex Haley’s Roots is undeniably as epic a television drama as it is a book. Yet this does nothing to change the fact that neither version conveys fact. Nor does it alter the sad truth that Haley was a fraud.
