小亨利·路易斯·盖茨是美国学术成就最高、成果最丰硕的人文学者之一。他一直热心于发现和重建非裔美籍人的历史。在过去的30年中,从早期倾心建构黑人文学批评到近些年致力于探究平凡和非凡的(非裔)美籍人士的家庭谱系,盖茨始终不渝地通过谱系研究帮助非裔美籍人及其他族裔的美国人了解他们的历史文化和他们自己。他在研究时既采用了传统的文本研究方式,也使用了由先进的DNA科技作支撑的视觉媒介。通过上述做法,他一方面试图在传统文学和历史研究的领域之外探索能够解决人类种族问题的新途径,另一方面希望向美国乃至全球的普通大众展示他们寻根研究的新方法和新发现,并借助它们促进非裔美籍人历史的重建。盖茨希望上述探索和研究能够进一步有效地推动美国各种族之间的了解和融合,进而推进美国的民主进程。

On the other hand, he hopes to show the common people in the United States and around the world new methods and discoveries of their root-seeking research, And use them to promote the reconstruction of African American history. Gates hopes that the above exploration and research will further promote the understanding and integration between the various ethnic groups in the United States and further promote the democratic process in the United States.
