...analagous to calling Roots racis, because it depicted blacks as slaves. Whitaker's irritating inability to grasp the obvious is again demonstrated in his dismissal of Stan Berkowitz's Ass (incorrectly attributed to a Tom DeMore [sic] as "...a stag movie for donkeys, replete with all but completely graphic bestiality." The point he misses is, obviously, that "stag movies" and their ilk that depict women (and men) in a degrading and dehumanizing manner attract an audience of human jackasses. He calls James Broughton's The Bed "stereotypical and crude" as well as using it and George Griffin's The Club...

...many critics, Roots was an Uncle Tom's Cabin for television. The short series included a number of unusually graphic scenes: the tribal rite of circumcision, the torturous voyage from Africa aboard a slaver, whippings, rapes and even the hatcheting of Kunta Kinte's foot. For many black viewers, Roots succeeded in putting flesh on the bones of their Afro-American heritage. "We all knew what slavery was, by hearsay and by family tradition," noted Boston Journalist Robert Jordan. "But this put all those feelings in living color where you've got to believe them."
