FINDING YOUR ROOTS with Henry Louis Gates, Jr. returns for its 10th season on PBS. Gates and his team use genealogical detective work and cutting-edge DNA analysis to trace the family trees of well-known personalities, telling stories that illuminate America’s shared past and fundamental diversity. With each turn of the page in their “book of life”, Gates reveals to his guests the long-buried secrets, hidden identities, and lost ancestors who have laid the groundwork for their success. In learning the emotional and sometimes complex narratives of their ancestry, each guest achieves a deeper understanding of history, family, and belonging. What’s more, this new season features some special guests—drawn from the audience. Following a nation-wide casting call, three viewers were selected to join the line-up of celebrities and sit down with Gates to solve a family mystery and discover what lies hidden in their own roots.
Guests include actor Jesse Williams, singer Dionne Warwick, comedian Tracy Morgan and more.
