Episode Description
In the 1970's Alex Haley wrote and book and a subsequent movie was filmed called Roots. It is the saga of African American life based off the genealogy of Alex Haley. During the process of doing research for the book and show, their were several experiences where the veil was thin. His ancestors were clearly helping him to move the work forward. A friend of Alex Hayley was Elder J. Richard Clarke, who was at the time overseeing the work in the Church's Family History department. Elder Clarke spoke at a BYUI devotional in February of 1993, and recounted the spiritual manifestations that Alex Haley related to him. Truly the Spirit of Elijah was moving upon Alex Hayley as this was an important work that needed to be done for many on both sides of the veil.
