"ROOTS: A History Revealed," is the companion documentary to HISTORY's 2016 reimagining of Alex Haley's ROOTS. It's an unrestrained look at the history of slavery in America. As interviewee Nwando Achebe says in the film, this isn't "a feel-good history ... but we must tell the history as it is, without whitewashing in any way." (Bushwick Film Festival)
