A literary and cinematic watershed, Alex Haley’s Roots—book and miniseries—made history in 1976. Fifty years later, author and former AP reporter Lucan L. Johnson examines the phenomenon in a series of essays and interviews entitled Remembering Roots: How an American Classic Transformed the World.

His appearance at The Learning Center takes the form of a public conversation between him and fellow journalist  Wanda Lloyd.
