Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Hardcover. "Now, on the fiftieth anniversary of Haley's Pulitzer Prize-winning book, Johnson probes the origins of this American classic, the struggles Haley experienced in more than 12 years of research and seeking publication, the challenges to its authenticity, and its eventual triumph.Johnson's history is timely and timeless." --BOOKLIST, starred review"Remembering Roots highlights the indomitability of the human spirit; and reminds us that, like our ancestors, as long as we continue to breathe, there's hope." --LEVAR BURTON, award-winning actor, director, author, and original cast member of RootsDiscover how the book and TV miniseries Roots became a cultural phenomenon that has shaped our understanding of heritage, race, identity, and family for fifty years. As we approach the 50th anniversaries of Alex Haley's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel Roots (1976) and its landmark television adaptation (1977), journalist and storyteller Lucas L. Johnson II reflects on the enduring legacy of Haley's work through the voices of those it continues to move, including scholars, artists, genealogists, students, and original cast members like LeVar Burton and Ben Vereen.With vivid personal anecdotes, emotional tributes, and probing reflections, Remembering Roots shows how Haley's vision gave birth to a genealogy movement, inspired generations to reclaim their identities, and challenged America to confront its past. From a sixth-grader who became the first lawyer in her family, to a blind musician empowered by his father's retelling of Roots' most iconic scene, Johnson traces the ripple effects of Haley's griot storytelling across time and culture.As debates rage over which histories get told, Remembering Roots boldly asserts the necessity to remember and retell our stories. A call to action, this book reaffirms that storytelling is not just an art--it's a path to healing. A powerful tribute to Roots, marking the 50th anniversary of its publication, Remembering Roots by Lucas L. Johnson II explores the cultural impact of Alex Haley's epic through personal stories, interviews, and reflections that reveal how Haley's work continues to shape identity, heritage, and hope across generations.
