This is a very short clip of James Earl Jones (who later portrayed Alex Haley in Roots: The Next Generations) interviewing Alex Haley who is talking about a book he hopes to finish writing soon called, Roots. Take note of how James Earl Jones mentions the title of the book as Roots: The Saga of Black People. A viewer of this video on the Black Omnibus web site commented, Wow, it’s amazing to see Alex Haley talk about Roots before he even finished it! Black Omnibus was a TV show hosted by James Earl Jones that taped in 1972 and aired for one season in 1973.
