The show it self is good feels a little cold not sure if its on purpose or if it's the narrator Mr. Gates somber voice or ment to be this way for the purpose of the show. My next issue is, it would be better if they used regular everyday people that really have a story to tell that have no clue as to where they came from and also don't have the money to figure out the pieces to their past, not like celebrities that are worth millions or in the case of the show i just watched headlining polotics and 3 politicions that all make a minimum of $174,000 a year plus. All these individuals all have the money to pay someone to do all their genealogy searches and put together a book like what they are all given made me not even finish watching this show. I also agree with another reviewer about the slavery issues, i know they are reverent but we live in such a divided world as it is now days and this makes a lot of people open old wounds of how slavery was back in the day and it makes me feel worse about how my ancestries were even treated. Like on the show i am talking about where Mr Gates Jr tells Marco Rubio "and who wants to revisit all their pain?" We as regular Americans have to relive a lot of pain just turning on the television and watching the news with all the hate in the world that is being spewed daily. I myself don't like what the world is becoming and how history is trying to be erased, its history good or bad its history and we should not repeat history, but we should not pretend it didnt happen that is why its called the past.
