"Starring Halle Berry, Tim Daly, and a cast of many celebrities, this mini series is set in the times of African slaves, plantations, and systemic racism. Alex Haley produced this mini series about the character Queen, who is sold into slavery after being raised in a household with her white slaver's children. The cast is fairly strong at times, and the story is told in a way to help us understand colorism within the African and African American community and what so many slaves went through in those horrific times.
