He was a liar

[@conscioussouthernsoul]

How was he great?

[@teeken8850]

I think he would have done greater good by writing something besides fiction, he inadvertently traded much truth for lies ...and yes it was fiction but people believed it... he should had shown how African kings enslaved and sold other tribes and that way a little truth and healing ...instead he inadvertently sewed discord and racism... history is what history is... Satan loves people against people... since we didn't live in that time, i as a multiracial person would like to believe i wouldn't own slaves, times were different...i would like to believe i would not be some African king who would enslave then sell others.... but wounds never heal when the concoction of lies is placed upon them..racism is a multi million dollar enterprise for leftist hustlers ..only God will be able to tell the truth...someday... until then and in 2022 better figure this out fast the left is now all but reprobate...they now cannot see what is so clear... call good evil and evil good.... nd the left supports every abomination known to God... ashamed...but people didn't believe then and many will perish still in non belief....

but the truth remained slavery existed and was just as brutal as his novel

@@seanmoore9878Alex Haley didn’t lie about his story. His father was a professor at Alabama A&M University that I graduated from. Alex’s grandmother was in fact a slave on a plantation in the area where I lived (Florence, AL) and attended college at Alabama A&M University (Huntsville, AL).

@@robinbanks3806 My family is a three generational HBCUs’ graduate students. My aunt also graduated from Alabama A&M University. Alex’s grandmother was enslaved on a plantation in the Florence, AL area. Florence is not too far from Alabama A&M University that has it’s own city by the name of Normal, AL in the Huntsville, AL area. Alex Haley grew up a small town in Tennessee that’s not too far from where the Alabama and Tennessee state lines meet.
