Alex Haley Overlooking Kunta Kinte’s Arrival in Annapolis, MD		ALEX HALEY TRIBUTE SITE Press Release: Nashville, Tennessee, Sunday, January 31, 2010 It was exactly thirty-three years ago on the final Sunday evening in January when 130 million American viewers tuned in and watched the final mini-series episode of Roots. All across America, restaurant and entertainment establishments, including Las Vegas, literally came to a screeching halt unless they had a television set airing Roots to their patrons. Therefore, to kick off the very first Black History Month of the new decade, it is with great honor that I present my personal tribute site to the greatest African-American writer of all times—Alexander Murray Palmer Haley.
