Kunta Kinte Celebrations, Incorporated is a non-profit (501C3) organization established in 1989 to celebrate the perseverance, education, and cultural heritage of Africans, African Americans, and Caribbean people of African descent. Despite many years in bondage, Kunta Kinte, one of 98 slaves brought to Annapolis, Maryland in 1767, never lost his connection to his African ancestry. His experience symbolizes the struggle of all ethnic groups to preserve their cultural heritage.
Since its inception, Kunta Kinte Celebrations, Inc. with financial support from a variety of organizations has hosted the Annual Kunta Kinte Heritage Festival in Annapolis. Each year the KKC festival is attended by over 10,000 people of all ethnic groups
