Alex Harley
Alex Harley was born in the northeast of New York in 1921, but he spent most of his early life with his mother's family in southern Tennessee. His grandmother told him stories about their family. Their history, she said, began with Toby.He was a slave from Africa and his name was Kunta.
Alex Harley went to school and then to college. In 1939, he joined the U.S.coastguard. As he was a Black, his job was to wait on table and wash dishes.In his spare time, he learned to write stories.He served in the coastguard for 20 years.After he retired (退休), he put all his time into writing.
Alex Harley remembered the stories his grandmother had told him. He began to study his family history. After a lot of research, Harley decided that Toby was probably Kunta Kinte of the West African Mandingo people. Kunta Kinte was caught near the village of Juffure on the Gambia River.He was sold as a slave in Annapolis, Maryland in 1767.Then Harley made a trip to Gambia and talked with a history expert in Juffure. The African historian made his conclusion stronger.
Alex Harley wanted to tell the experiences of the black people in 18th-and-19th-century America. He spent 10 years researching and writing his family story for the book “Roots”. It was published in 1976. It won a special Pulitzer Prize.A few years later, a film series(连续剧) based on Harley's book was shown on American television.
