On this episode of Conversations with Kenyatta, Kenyatta D.  Berry, author of The Family Tree Toolkit, and host of PBS' Genealogy Roadshow  sits down with Regina Mason, who is a direct descendant of William Grimes.

The two discuss what genealogy means, especially to those who were enslaved, or who have African Roots, and why that's been taboo to discuss in the past, and even today. They also dive into Gina's Journey, a film about Regina's experiences with her genealogy, as well as her book, which focuses on her ancestor, William Grimes.

The music for this episode, as always, is "Good Vibe," by Ketsa.
