The tragic assassination of George Floyd has a long line of even more heinous and horrific scenes behind it, and these scenes are spread on every page of Roots. The story of this novel begins with 'Kunta Kinti' who starts a happy and peaceful life in a village in the African country of Gambia.
But before your eyes bleed in the pain of Kunta Kinti, get acquainted with the grief of Alex Haley, who has made him a character.
Alex Haley, who was born on American soil on August 11, 1921 and passed away on February 10, 1992, was constantly told some stories by his grandmother, not to entertain little Alex, but to convey family history to him.
She was told the story of Kunta Kinti, the ancestor of this black American family. Grandma told little Alex how Kunta was abducted from his village in Gambia and brought to the United States, where he landed as a slave on the shores of Naples. Kunta was not only deprived of his family, homeland and freedom, his religion was also forcibly changed. He was converted from a Muslim to a Christian and his name was changed to Toby.
Kunta told this story to her daughter and bequeathed it to her. So, about two
centuries later, this heart-wrenching story,along with the stories of later generations,
came to Alex's attention.
Kunta's story was legacy of Alex who was to become a writer. We talk and hear a lot
about the 'Creativity Cruelty', but Alex Haley did go through it all the time during his
12-year research and creative journey. Following the story of his ancestor Kunta, he
travelled extensively in the USA and abroad.
He explored the African words in the story and traveled from city to
city in search of facts. Eventually they reached the village of Gambia, Kunta's
hometown, where they traced Kunta and his family.
Local historians, who memorize and narrate history by memory, said Kunta
went to the forest to cut wood to make drums, after which he was never seen
again. Alex settled in Britain and learned about the activities of British
troops in Africa during the 1760s. Documents relating to the enslavement and
trafficking of Africans during this period based on Kunta's "folk
tale" are based on facts.
Eventually, they reached Toby with the help of a document from the US
country of Spotsylvania, which was sold by a pair of masters named
John Waller and Ann to a man named Dr. William Waller.
Alex says, he travelled about 500,000miles, followig Kunta's story for 12 years.
It wasn't just a journey it was research of events, a searc for the places where
they took place, a confirmation of all this, further confirmation and research.
