Kieran Haile is the great-great-grandson of Alexander Manly, owner and publisher of The Daily Record, which was burned down in Wilmington, North Carolina by a white supremacist mob in 1898. Kieran and his wife, Priscilla, are uncovering their family’s past: both the triumphs and the pain, the wrongs done to them and the gifts the Manly line has given to the world. And in the process they are learning about themselves, introducing us to another great-great-grandchild of Alex Manly, Leila Haile, and insisting white people start doing their own work towards racial reconciliation.
