Finding Your Roots

Samuel L. Jackson, Condoleezza Rice And Ruth Simmo

Season 1, Episode 7 of 10

Samuel L. Jackson, Condoleezza Rice and Brown University President Ruth Simmons have each climbed to the pinnacle of their profession, yet each started life as a second class citizen in the Jim Crow south. In this episode we will use DNA to investigate family mysteries: where do they come from in Africa, and who are the white men in their family trees?
