Dr. Gates on African-American Genealogy on NPR

Seems I'm on a radio kick. I just listened to the interview with Henry Louis "Skip" Gates, Jr. on NPR's Talk of the Nation. The topic is Tracing African-American Genealogy: Why It Matters, and you won't be surprised to hear that it focuses on his experience with the PBS special on Oprah's roots (congrats to Tony Burroughs for his stellar performance on the show, as well!). The interview is only about 16 minutes long and a great listen since Dr. Gates is so engaging -- and of course, his topic is so fascinating!
