Your article backs my claim that Kunte Kinte was a real person, so I'm not sure what point you are trying to prove!

In fact, as the Mills discovered, the man that Haley identified as Kunta Kinte, a slave by the name of Toby, could not have been Kunta Kinte or Haley’s ancestor.

Toby had been in America as early as 1762, five years before his ship was alleged to arrive. Worse for Haley, Toby died eight years before his presumed daughter Kizzy was born.
