We are not children of the bondwoman but of the free. – Galatians 4:31


Kizzy Kinte didn’t have a chance. The daughter of Kunta Kinte in Alex Haley’s epic book Roots wanted to slip the bonds of slavery and live free, as her ancestors had done in Africa. But she couldn’t. She was born of a slavewoman, Bell Kinte, and in those terrible days of bondage, she was destined to live as a slave.


Kizzy’s parentage – over which she had no control – dictated her destiny.

Visiting Gambian President Dr. Yahya A.J.J. Jammeh was particularly proud of the fact that a variety of his country’s peanuts — their top export product — came to Gambia in 1966 all the way from the Philippines.
