This memorial includes the Kunta Kinte storytelling sculptures, the Story Wall, and the Compass Rose. Located near the City Dock, this is the nation's only site that recognizes and names an individual slave's arrival. Alex Haley's iconic character from his novel Roots was based on his real-life ancestor who was born in 1750 in Gambia.
