I've heard of Spotsylvania before. And now after I watched Roots 2016 & Googled Kunte Kinte & Alex Haley. I remembered watched Roots(original) when I was a child & now as a adult I fully understand American History. Thank u so much for all u do! ❤ this is very interesting travels that u do.
Is there an old plantation house still standing on wallers road where Kunta Kinte may have lived. I heard there is a very old structure there which may have been there pre civil war!?
That house in the very beginning is actually used by the county for all recreation sports. I've been in there a couple of times to sign my Little one up for soccer. Supposedly kunta kinte is buried off wallers Road off of farm in Spotsylvania. It's unconfirmed but it's possible
In the ROOTS movie, Kizzy went to Kunta's grave and crossed out 'Toby' and wrote Kunta Kinte on the marker that was thete. Was that Movie fluff and buff, or is there a sign that says that?

Very interesting as always. Thank you

another great video, I always learn quite a few things that I never knew from each of your videos.
Thanks!
I’m willing to bet a million dollars cosmo gordon didn’t build that house. He probably design it
My mother built a home once. It just means it’s her desire, will, vision, and financial obligation. Doesn’t mean she had a tool belt
Thanks so much, interesting, I had heard about this but hadn’t been there! Great drone footage!!

Another great video!! Hope to meet you in person with Goober the Traveling Bear !
😊great video
Nothing fictional about kunta kinte guy, do your research
As a Stauntonian I will let you know it's pronounced Stant-un
Y’all know kunta kinte was a fictional person right? Alex Haley came out and said the book roots isn’t a true story
That's not true. Some of his book was confirmed as plagiarized. The story of his ancestors is real.
You’re right 💯 fiction, people will entertain a lie then to study to show themselves approve and learn truths. Everything Is Lies. Repent
Is the Kenmore estate mentioned the same as the Fielding Lewis home ?
Thank you
Yep it’s the same house. Gordon family purchased it in 1819.
In the ROOTS movie, Kizzy went to Kunta's grave and crossed out 'Toby' and wrote Kunta Kinte on the marker that was thete. Was that Movie fluff and buff, or is there a sign that says that?
That was for dramatic effect, in real life she never knew what happened to her Dad. His name around the plantation was hopping George
Looks like the front of my grandma's house. It was built before Civil War
Oh nice, glad it’s still in use. Thanks for watching!
this is crazy
Enjoy your Virginia travels ...used to live in Petersburg in the 70s. Do you work another job, too?
I do. I stay busy lol
@@VATravels Wow. Really like the places you choose...Virginia has so much history to offer.
@@Lavender0646 It does. Thanks for watching!
@@Lavender0646 they tore down half of it.
I assure you! Kunta Kinte isn’t a fictional character. He is my 4th Great Grandfather, according to my DNA results from Ancestry. 🧬
Table two with netflix an blockbuster outta place caption do your job an accept your punishment little sister
Spotsylvania born and raised
REPENT of your forefathers sins and your sins, REPENT! REPENT!
Was Kunta Kinte actually a real person? I read and heard somewhere that Haley, himself said he lied and Roots isn’t actually true.
You mean Toby?
No he is to be honored and revered by his Afrucan name given to him at birth, Kunta Kinte!
Say that in person
U in Va?
