Welcome

Thank you for your interest in the Kunta Kinte Festival, being held on September 25, 2010 from 10 am to 7 pm at the City Dock in Annapolis, MD. As you know, the Annapolis City Dock is the site of Kunta Kinte’s arrival to America, which is now memorialized by a statue of historian and author Alex Haley.

Over the past 23 years of its existence, hundreds of thousands of diverse patrons from around the globe have come to enjoy the event highlighting the contributions of African Americans and other minority groups to our society.

As you may be aware, the festival was not held last year due to a lack of funding. However, because of your generous donations we are back on track and looking forward to a successful event.

If you wish to make a tax deductible donation to support this worthwhile event, please contact me using the Kunta Kinte Celebrations email on the contact page or by clicking on the “pay pal” button.

I appreciate your support and look forward to meeting you there!
Sincerely, Ruby Singleton Blakeney, 2010 Kunta Kinte Festival Chairman

The Rich Tradition

The name Kunta Kinte brings to mind the saga of Roots written by Alex Haley. Mr. Haley, a descendant of Kunta Kinte, unveiled the power of his family's personal experience when he wrote Roots, his international best seller.
