Kunte Kinte-Alex Haley Memorial

To commemorate the arrival in this harbor of Kunte Kinte, immortalized by Alex Haley in Roots, and all others who came to these shores in bondage and who by their toil, character and ceaseless struggle for freedom have helped to make these Unites States. A luta continua!

Marker is at the intersection of Main Street and Compromise Street, on the left when traveling south on Main Street.
