.@S_Epatha is moved by the emotional stories we were able to uncover about her ancestors on tonight’s #FindingYourRoots. “Part of the tears is joy that they were here and that whatever they went through they withstood it...They endured." #BlackHistoryMonth pic.twitter.com/WLZDe6vCbx

With help from our genetic genealogist @CeCeLMoore, @S_Epatha’s #FindingYourRoots journey takes her back generations, introducing her to ancestors she never knew: “They have names…They’re not just faceless people. Wow, this is pretty amazing.” #BlackHistoryMonth pic.twitter.com/HAHxWnwpaB

When @MichaelStrahan reads the 1870 census - the very first census in which all freed slaves appear by name - he is proud to learn that his ancestors owned real estate and had acquired personal wealth. “I got a smile on my face.” #FindingYourRoots #BlackHistoryMonth pic.twitter.com/ww8IPOLZZl
