Notes: Kunta Kinte is the central character of the novel, Roots: The Saga of an American Family by American author Alex Haley, and of the television miniseries Roots, based on the book. Haley described his book as faction – a mixture of fact and fiction. Kunta Kinte was a Muslim of the Mandinka tribe. Kunta was captured and brought as a slave to Annapolis, Maryland, and later sold to a plantation owner in Spotsylvania County, Virginia near the present-day rural community of Partlow. In the miniseries, the younger version of the character was portrayed by LeVar Burton, and the older version by John Amos.
