HISTORY OF KUNTA KINTE
In 1767, Kunta Kinte was brought aboard the ship Lord Ligonier from The Gambia in West Africa to the Annapolis city dock to be sold into slavery. This legendary character is known from Alex Haley's best-selling novel 'Roots: The Saga of an American Family,' and the recent History Channel remake, 'Roots,' a TV mini-series. Despite many years in bondage, Kunta Kinte never lost his connection to his African heritage. His experience symbolizes the importance for all ethnic groups to preserve their cultural identity.
