FINDING YOUR ROOTS
October 7, 2014  | By David Bianculli

PBS, 8:00 p.m. ET

 

Talk about having the tables turned: One of Henry Louis Gates’ guests on tonight’s edition of Finding Your Roots is Ken Burns, the documentarian who’s much more used to probing other people’s histories than having his own family tree examined. But tonight, this series traces back Burns’ ancestry – and discovers that Burns (like another of tonight’s guests, CNN’s Anderson Cooper) is descended from Southerners who owned slaves. Check local listings.
