7. Kenyatta D Berry: Finding your Ancestors & African American Genealogy

Genealogy helps us understand the voices of epistolary history and the missing voices too. Kenyatta D Berry is a professional genealogist, attorney, author, lecturer and TV host. She has extensive knowledge of African American Genealogy and enslaved ancestral research. Her book, The Family Tree Toolkit: A Comprehensive Guide to Uncovering Your Ancestry and Researching Genealogy, is a valuable resource for anyone interested in learning more about their genealogy. It’s a wonderful resource guide and also provides helpful steps for how to get started. Kenyatta is a host on PBS’ Genealogy Roadshow, where I first saw her. She’s a contributor to The New York Time’s groundbreaking “1619 project” which commemorates the 400th anniversary of the arrival of enslaved Africans in the colonies. She’s also been featured in leading publications, including Black Enterprise, Good Housekeeping, Spartan Magazine, Real Simple, Wall Street Journal and Woman’s World.
