As part of PBS’ “Enslaved Roots” series, the camera turns its lens on Nas. He traces his DNA back to a Virginia slave plantation. In the video with Professor Henry Louis Gates Jr, Nas discovers and touches the 1859 bill of sale, for his third-great grandmother. Emotional to the terms of the contract, Nas admits that he has more in his pocket at that moment, than her life was valued at approximately 150 years ago. Check out the video.
