Best Answer

In the movie Roots, the character Kunta Kinte (Toby) was played by two different actors. LaVar Burton, famous for Star Trek and Reading Rainbow, played young Kunta Kinte. He gets whipped because he refuses to give up his name in favor of the more Anglo-sounding Toby. John Amos, formerly of Good Times who later enjoyed a recurring role on The West Wing, played the adult Kunta Kinte.
