MEOW I said this the last time he made this video. He looks like he can be a part of my family. He looks extremely Nigerian especially Igbo. His face actually looks like my step baby brother. Once he grows up he's going to look like him the only difference is that my brother is lighter in complexion than he is and has brown hair.
Congrats bro!! I've noticed Black ppl who descend from the Caribbean usually have a higher African percentage! Most Blk/African Americans tend to have more mixture that's probably because the European population was so high here in America.
kandi preciado Yeah that's also true! I'm from Louisiana alot of blk ppl from here are mixed too. Are you from SC if you don't mind me asking?? Because i know alot of Gullah/Geechee ppl live down their and they tend to have a higher African percentag because of isolation.
I want to give you the biggest & warmest hug! x I'm Igbo. Nigerian. I said the last video, you look like you can be a part of my family! You honestly look very Nigerian. A lot of people are saying that the comments as well LOL
Yo, that was funny as hell man. Dude almost chocked he was so happy to be 91% African. You need to update this video bro, those results have been updated 3 times since this one.
Congratulations! I like that you were able to get the results from both companies and able to compare and contrast between the two. I'm inspired to go out and start my own journey. Thanks for sharing
Black people WE ARE NOT AFRICAN!!! Just kidding. Seriously though, there's a lot of Black folk who work hard NOT to be African. They claim to be Jews, Native Americans, Arabs/Asiatic, Moors, etc. And they always run away from Africa. You can not truly be a proud Black man or woman without claiming Africa. Africa is the origin of ALL life and civilization. And although Black people have built many civilizations outside of Africa, Africa alwayz was and is the home base.
neocush1 you know I totally agree with you. Yet, I don’t think it’s that Black Americans are ashamed of being from Africa it’s just the fact that they don’t know where in Africa they are from so it’s hard to attach to a particular culture within the continent.
vision117 technically we all came from Africa at some point. But I get what your saying. Can you give an example of fine of these out of Africa “Black,” populations.
Have you guys never heard of the north to south migrations. Not everyone originated in Africa. You dummies and you purest ideology. You guys have more in common with Noth Korea than the rest of the world. They think they are pure too
Your dad being Antiguan just blew my mind. I'm Antiguan and I'm not sure how you popped up on my page but I was so excited when I saw black history told by a young black man. Keep doing what you're doing because you are really educating me and the people like me who truly want to know more about their history P.S. Where do you get your information from? And do you know anything more about your Antiguan history? Sadly I don't think Antiguans know enough. Sorry for the long post and thanks once again. Blessings
Wow!!!!! I'm so happy for you!!!!! You have a high percentage from around Benin and Togo, then Nigeria,....ranks second place,.....be attentive Nigeria came in second opposed to Ghana/Ivory Coast,.....It seems as though you have a decent amount of Ewe, Fon, Yoruba ancestry,......peoples who were all linked into the Oyo empire. Oyo of course was Yoruba, but I remember Oyo subjugated the Dahomey kingdom for a while which was Fon,....and exacted tribute as far as the Ewe in Togo. I know the Yorubas are also spread abroad in Benin and Togo a part from western Nigeria. What was wonderful about my dna testing experience my intuition gave me long believed hints about it, and knowing this made the experience all the more life changing when I got the results. My direct maternal ancestry went back to the Yoruba of Nigeria, and my direct paternal went back to the Ashanti of Ghana. I can not wait to take the more comprehensive admixture test from ancestry.com.
I also noticed on another video you mentioned your direct maternal lineage went back to the Fulani of Guinea Bissau,.....in the admixture test presented here I guess your Fulani foremother that came through the Middle Passage's is factored in your 9 per cent Mali or your 5 per cent Senegal represented in the trace regions seeing that Guinea Bissau borders Senegal and Mali having Fulani natives and your Mbundu Angolan direct paternal lineage is factored in the 12 per cent Southeastern Bantu, or either the 4 per cent of your Cameroon/Congo dna represented in the trace regions, seeing that this area is predominantly Bantu, and the Mbundu descended down through these parts during the Bantu expansion coming out of Cameroon.
+HomeTeam History Yeah, what's great about the people in the Senegal, Guinea, Guinea Bissau, Mali, Liberia, Sierra Leone region,......there has been considerable intermarriage their histories testify of it,.....I guess it was due to the empires and kingdoms in these regions(mostly Mande as you are probably aware) had so many kingdoms or empires that united multiple ethnic groups. You'll even see it reflected in African Ancestry's direct lineage dna test results,....where as more than often you'll hear of person having links to people in Senegal, Guinea Bissau and Sierra Leone or Liberia on one lineage, reflecting a common ancestor's dna has dispersed among ethnic groups in all these countries. Oh yeah' you'll be shocked how very much all the Bantu peoples are interrelated, due to the original Bantu migration coming out of Cameroon and Southeast Nigeria. The Mbundu are said to arrive into Angola around the 14th century, and for some reason they have a distinct link to the Igbo.
+HomeTeam History I mentioned that indirect link the Mbundu have with the Igbo due to the fact more than once I've seen African Americans receive dna test results from African Ancestry with the Igbo of Nigeria and Mbundu of Angola being on one lineage; a single ancestor whose genes had been dispersed among the Igbo and the Mbundu. I'm guessing this is due to the Bantu expansion, and the Mbundu being recent products of it arriving in Northern Angola in the 14th century. Rick Kittles the founder of African Ancestry mentioned, mostly at one point in time the Igbo and Mbundu were either one, or lived within vicinity of each other. It makes sense because the Igbo are from Southeast Nigeria, a midst the region the Bantus originated out of along with Cameroon.
There are a quite a few people from Caribbean with 100% African Ancestry. As for skin colour. I have Nigerian friends and they all have different skin complexions from light to dark. They are 100% African, they have no slave history. I did Ancestry and got 96% African my family Jamaican and I have Jamaican Maroon heritage.

Yo I took a DNA test with ancestry it said I'm 71 percent African and 27 European, (my grandpa was white). I'm 36 Nigerian, 12 ivory coast, 11 Cameroon and Togo, 6 Mali, 3 Benin/Togo region and very small amounts of southern eastern Bantu and central hunter gathers. the results are cool but I don't mind too much about the results because nations such as Nigeria, Camroon and Mali etc were drawn up by european powers and doesn't tell me what tribe I'm from. I know im most likely descended from Fulani, Igbo or Yoruba because those are the dominant ethnic groups in Nigeria which I got most. Which DNA test did you use previously?
I love when RUclipsrs... share their DNA Ancestry Results...You're blacker than me...(From George Lopez Show) so I'm a bit jealous. I've only done one test so far but I do plan to do others. Especially because I want to know my tribal lineage. 87% African (Ivory Coast/Ghana - 29%, Cameroon/Congo - 21%, Nigeria - 16%, Senegal - 9%, Benin/Togo - 7%, Africa South Eastern Bantu - 4%, & African South Central Hunter-Gatherer - 1%) 1% East Asian 12% European :(
susu biixi lol...I'm sorry if that was offensive. Its just the more I learn about my African heritage the more I want my blood to be 100%. And because the world sees me as black. As a negro no matter what blood runs through my veins. I would be laughed at to even try to say I'm mixed. I have no European or Asian relative that I know personally. The Asian blood is barely there but the European is a heafty amount for me as a black woman. But its something that will never be acknowledged in me so I'm not to keen on it being there.
Thank You for your insight. I agree with you and understand. I plan to do other test simply because they spark my interest but I know they are very skewed and subjective. I'm aware that the whole world was black at one time. And that the original peoples of most all lands to include Asia and Europe were black. The real Native Americans were black not Mongolians. But thanks to $5 Indians things were reclassified and Native Americans (the black ones) were killed, enslaved, and called black not Native American. That title went to Mongolians and even that is being reclassified to Europeans being the Native Americans.
Amanda Tessmer It just might be too late. I might already be "F****d". 12% European.....By your little comment I see your feelings are hurt. Which also tells me you're European. You must not know about you very own bloodline. Europeans are Neanderthals. Don't get mad at me about it. Direct all your misplaced anger to your own people because thats who taught me about it. The information is everywhere straight out of European mouths that not only say Europeans carry the Neandertuhal gene but they also point out that Negros don't have Neanderthal blood :) (Is a smile better for you?)
Thanks for this! I'm Jamaican on my dad's side and my top regions. on Ancestry DNA for Africa (87% total) were Benin/Togo (25%), Cameroon/Congo (21%), Ivory Coast/Ghana(14%), and Mali (13%). Is there a way I could figure out the specific group I closely relate to?
+Asia sadler I hope that can be done one day not too long from now. RIght now there just hasn't been enough West African reference data anywhere and I think even when a company finally does have more data for West Africa (and East Africa and Central) it still won't be enough to accurately say anything, and will probably only tell what ethnic groups we have "affinity" to not much better than what ancestry.com does now. I don't know how accurate AfricanAncestry is with their maternal/paternal lineage testing but they're way too exploitive with their pricing.
Always enjoy your informative and relaxed delivery in your videos man. How much did a DNA test cost, sounds interesting to have a look at. Cheers from Scotland
Cool!! I'm Mexican & I got 19% African, mostly Nigeria 🇳🇬 & 64% Native American. Check out my ancestry ancestry DNA results on my channel. Nice beanie! 👌🏽 To me the African DNA was the most fascinating & my NATIVE American, well im Stil digesting it. I just can't believe i had such a high number.
Those are great results, Home Team. What they reveal is that, at .least, 53% or over half of your African genome DNA profile is similar to targeted populations located within the "Bight of Benin". This could suggest or hint that you have lineages found in said region. They could include a number of ethnic possibilities - namely Ewe, Ga, Fon, Yoruba, Fante, and or Igbo, for example. But supporting evidence (NOT CONCLUSIVE) would reflect in your DNA matches of individuals with direct roots (parents/four grandparents) from there. And if regional score show none Zero in the range, that's even better; it only strengthens the supporting evidence. Your paper trail and or oral family history would further solidify the linkage. Comparing your maternal and or paternal haplogroups helps to hone in too (e.g., Y-DNA subhaplogroup E-P252/U174 is heavily concentrated in the modern countries of Ghana, Nigeria, and Cameroon) - additional supporting evidence of potential lineages in the focus area. These are examples how you interpret your results. I hope this helped.
Cool results! I am over 93% (some tests report over 96%) African. My dad is from the Bahamas and mom’s family from the Carolinas. My maternal line is Yoruba. 😊 I want to get my brother tested for the Paternal line. My dad passed away before this science was available to the public at the rate it is now. ✌🏾
We're so similar! Both of my parents were born in Jamaica - but my results were: 94% African - 35% Benin/ Togo - 24% Nigeria - 15% South Eastern Bantu - 11% Ivory Coast/Ghana - 4% Mali - 3% Cameroon/Congo... then traces of Senegal and South Central H&G.............. 6% European(but I ain't worried about all that)lol I know you said not to take the regions seriously, but I can't help it - Please could you do more videos on the Benin/Togo Region? Dahomey, Benin Empires - or on the Fon or Ewe people? It's weird how he separated these two countries sandwiched between Nigeria and Ghana... Also the South Eastern Bantu part is a little bit confusing.......I mean it's such a huge area - from Kenya to South Africa - Luo to Xhosa - it doesn't tell me much! In any case, keep up the good work, your videos give me so much life! -Peace.
@ J O, Yoruba did not colonize other Yoruba people in modern day Benin/Togo. In fact, before The Berlin Conference of 1884-85, the following areas in Benin/Togo has indigenous Yoruba people and they were part of Oyo empire. In Benin Estimates of the Yoruba in Benin vary from around 1.1 to 1.5 million people. The Yoruba are the main group in the Benin department of Ouémé, all Subprefectures including Porto Novo (Ajasè), Adjara; Collines Province, all subprefectures including Savè, Dassa-Zoume, Bante, Tchetti, Gouka; Plateau Province, all Subprefectures including Kétou, Sakété, Pobè; Borgou Province, Tchaourou Subprefecture including Tchaourou; Zou Province, Ouihni and Zogbodome Subprefecture; Donga Province, Bassila Subprefecture and Alibori, Kandi Subprefecture. (2) In Togo Estimates of the Yoruba in Togo vary from around 500,000 to 600,000 people. There are both immigrant Yoruba communities from Nigeria, and indigenous ancestral Yoruba communities living in Togo. Indigenous Yoruba communities in Togo, however can be found in the Togolese departments of Plateaux Region, Anie, Ogou and Est-Mono prefectures; Centrale Region and Tchamba Prefecture. The chief Yoruba cities or towns in Togo are: Atakpame, Anié, Morita, Ofe, Kambole. (2) Source: 1. www.britannica.com/place/Oyo-empire 2. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yoruba_people 3. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketu_(Benin)
Don't rely on whatever Wikipedia says lol.. I'm from Benin-Togo most of the people from Southern Benin and Togo lived under the Oyo Emipre... We are all mixed mostly with Yoruba if anything.
Sika Abbey you said you are from Togo-Benin. Interesting, as your last name (Abbey) is a common Ghanaian last name of those indigenous of their Greater Accra region. By chance are you from Aneho in Togo?
Well I am Ewe. Ewes were originally from Nigeria and moved into present-day Volta-Region Ghana, Togo, and Benin. My family spreads across all three countries. I am not from Ghana. However, I am Ewe and Fon from Togo. My mother is from Aneho and Atapkame and those regions are Mina and Yoruba areas....So essentially my family cannot trace our roots back to Nigeria but we definitely have family in Ghana, Togo, and Benin.
Yorùbá from the Idanre Hills here, sending greetings to the beautiful and diverse people of the Yorùbá confederacy. How do we bring our people together, from the Yorùbás of Brazil to those of our ancestral home of Ile-Ife?! Our progenitors are Nubians , who migrated to Sudan, some settled whilst our ancestors settled in Yorubaland.
Tbh when you read your results from the other test, I was a bit skeptical given your ethnic background. So I am glad you did ancestry.com test to compare. It sounds a bit more accurate but that's just my opinion. Thanks for sharing.
It sounds like you've also tested with African Ancestry, Matriclan/Patriclan. You mentioned that your maternal is Fulani. Truthfully, AA offers low resolution tests ONLY. Therefore, it cannot determine direct ethnicity as of yet. What it does indicate is SHARED ancestry but origin. That goes for the Patriclan test as well, which analyzes only eight markers (very limited compared to the standard 12 markers). Honestly, eight markers are not enough data to confirm any lineage let alone ancestry. It can reveal cluster groups or shared relationships. So, please keep that in mine when reviewing African Ancestry lineage tests.
Bless and love from Wadadli, My Brother... Keep up the good fight and continue to drop the knowledge... Son of the soil, Antiguan and Afro-Caribbean... Peace...
Most slaves in South Carolina came from Angola 🇦🇴 in central Africa not Sierra Leon 😂😂 do u even know about stono rebellion The Stono Rebellion (also known as Cato's Conspiracy or Cato's Rebellion) was a slave revolt that began on 9 September 1739, in the colony of South Carolina. It was the largest enslaved rebellion in the Southern Colonies, with 25 colonists and 35 to 50 Africans killed.[1][2] The uprising was led by native Africans who were likely from the Central African Kingdom of Kongo, as the rebels were Catholic and some spoke Portuguese. Actually almost of black American came from Angola🇦🇴 and Congo🇨🇩. And that’s final
We could be cousins. I'm 95% African & 4 % British. I used a different company however there wasn't a lot of swirling in my bloodline and I'm proud of that.
Accepting ranges makes more sense than looking for a finite number-in terms of dna by race %. I don't believe the science is THAT exact to accept anything else.
What up Home Team? , your channel is dope . I appreciate your awesome content .I took Ancestry .com test . They say I am 96% African , 4 % European. I am still shocked . They say black males in the diaspora usually don't score that high . I have a high percentage of Nigeria , and Benin & Togo . Both of my parents are from Jamaica . Maybe that explains the high percentage. I don't know why , I feel a strong draw to Nigeria & Benin & Togo .
Not according to Jamaicans I've heard alot of them as well as Belizean ppl act as if they do not even have a drop of AFRICAN blood on top of the(Epidemic) with folks bleaching there skin in Jamaica
There seems to be some controversy about where the ibos/igbos of Nigeria actually came from. The ibos according to some elders are different from the igbos. It seems unclear where they all come from, although some, more recently believe that they are from Israel. It all seems so strange. Please shed some light.
I did both 23andMe as well as Ancestry and both had my ethnicity estimate at 95% Sub-Saharah African, with low confidence of 2% Native American and 2% Asia Central and
i got 91% African, too! The only difference is I had 8% European and 1% Central Asian. The European half was Eastern, Irish, Finnish/Northwestern Russian, and Scandinavian. I didn't have anything from Western Europe, Mongolia, Caucus, or Native American.
that's awesome my brother. I'll be taking mines soon. I'll go watch that video. I know you had to be amaze to know your tribes. Keep up the good work. I've always enjoyed your videos. Nice to see our people embrace our African heritage
+Akhnaten Xiaolo It's a money making scheme. Tribes/Clans are social constructs.... DNA can't really test or trace your tribal lineages. They're just selling false dreams to people.
Continental Cushite it maybe social construct to extent but you can't deny African ethics groups. Africans are genetically different from inside and out. Their facial structure, skull, and body as well as DNA. Describing African people from one another is no different than describing a Chinese person from Japanese person yet both are "Asian". You don't know much about Biology do you?. It's not as complexed as it seems. What they do is they take all the common folk of the certain tribe or ethic group DNA and record their genetic markers. A genetic marker is a gene or DNA sequence with a known "location" on a chromosome that can be used to identify individuals or species. It can be described as a variation if mutation or alteration in the genomic loci that can be observed. It's like mapping out genetic codes. it's not hard to take a African descent person DNA from the U.S. and match it with variations of recorded DNA from the African continent
Akhnaten Xiaolo Don't know much about biology ? Hahahaha I've studied medical genetics past degree level, I've carried out genetic sequencing first hand and have studied some of the most complex hereditary diseases and the genetic/environmental factors involved, not only this..... I've studied the prevalence of certain diseases in relation to different populations "population genetics". So I'm well versed in the matter. Whereas you clearly have very little to no clue...... Forget about the differences between a Bantu and a Khoisan individual or a Nilote or Cushite or Amazigh or a Nubian individual. These populations have more or less remained isolated and largely unmixed for thousand or so years and can easily be distinguished between one another genetically and through our visual instruments of observation "naked eye observations of the different phenotypes". Autosomal studies are what most of these companies use to test the relationship of an individual with different populations, haploid lineages of individuals are also taken into account. Everyone carries their own unique autosomal STR/SNP genetic profile which is then matched up against others "reference panel" to measure a person’s genetic connections to world populations. Your results are only as good as the reference panel/Samples you have...... The variety/variation within tribes may be overlooked or maybe unaccounted for if different unrelated individuals from all the different regions the tribe inhabit are not tested...... additionally there maybe overlap between different populations as a result of admixture and other migration events. Many groups along the years may have become assimilated into the mix, there may also be different founding lineages that dispersed early on and account for a different variety amongst the groups but are still indigenous...... All in all these tests have their limitations and too many people over-estimate the predictive powers of these tests. Speak to any genealogist/geneticist who's deeply involved in the field or ancestry and they'll also share the same sentiments as I do.
I got 85% African, 13% Europe, 1% East Asian (trace region), and >1% middle eastern. I understand the Asian part because that comes from my greatx5 grandmother who was a black foot Native American. But what I don't understand is the middle eastern and the 1% North African? Do you know why some African Americans have this.? I'm taking another test that comes from at geo project and I'm thinking about taking the African ancestry test as well. But idk how accurate that one is ; being that it can pinpoint the tribe you come from... despite the fact that I am mixed with A LOT OF DIFFERENT AFRICAN COUNTRIES! Ivory Coast/Ghana 36%, Nigeria 17%, Cameroon/Congo 14%, Trace regions: Mali 7% Senegal 3% Africa southeastern Bantu 3% Benin/Togo 3% Africa south-central hunter-gatherers 1% Africa North 1% ( where does this come from?) Europe: Great Britain 11% Trace Regions: Ireland 2% Asia: Trace region Asia east 1% Middle eastern >1% ( what does this come from?)
oooooh!! that would make sense with the Senegal ancestry that i have, being that that is where the Berbers orginated. is that info correct? Ive heard people say that the Berbers originated froma tribe in sengal...
Thats what I was saying... Thats why I dont care for Ancestry.com because they give you general regions and cant break down the specific ethnic group. African Ancestry is better in my opinion because they tell you what specific ethnic group you come from and they understand the history
HomeTeam History It would be nice to get the exact ethnic group(s) for each country in the DNA mix. Maybe it will cost more to narrow it all down. You are doing a great job, thank you so much for it, and pls keep it up. I share your channel with friends.
First, coming from Caribbean parents I can truly believe the 91% (of one percent of your DNA) African Ancestry and 9% European. Now, Brother Hometeam, please check out Dr.Hank Greelee a law Professor at Stanford University (specialist in New DNA Tech.) and RUclips video: Exposed DNA Hoax. Always great information!
Congrats , do you know where Antiguan people from. Explain why so many places . I understand Britain. I am trying to understand why your DNA is spread so much in Africa , is it the traveling they did and settled please clear up so I can gain a better understanding.
The moors are from Eastern Africa so if someone say they’re moors still Africa yes you will find a lot of Moore’s generations from the Philippine yes the first indentured race of people to occupy the Philippine islands
What is needed is for Black Americans to read ancient sub-Saharan books in African languages not read European books or European books translated from Arabic and then try to change them. Also I wish that I could believe they understand Latin and Greek when they quote Latin or Greek expressions
Have you tried AfricanAncestry.com? It is awesome i havent tried it but i have seen people take it and the founder Dr. Gina showing their results and all on youtube.
Michael Jordan Many Black Americans in particular have no idea where they come from and want to know. Most of us are black ppl walking around with a slave masters last name (German, British, French,etc ), thinking and talking in English as a FIRST language with no idea what country of origin their lineage is from.....and the mirror let's us know most or everything about your culture is lost. Ppl want to know who they really are so they take tests (although I don't put a lot of faith in these tests).
Michael Jordan you don't understand the fascination of your make up? of your ancestors and national heritages. it is very important, particularly for black Americans and carribeans that they know as most largerly forgot their origins due to slavery
I see where you're coming from I think it's better for people who have mixed ancestry (who don't know a parent) but locating it too the the specific African region is quite cool
I'm Nigerian and you have a very Igbo face. If you went to Nigeria, I'd assume you were Igbo.
MEOW The Igbo is strong in this one...no be lie.
MEOW
I said this the last time he made this video. He looks like he can be a part of my family. He looks extremely Nigerian especially Igbo. His face actually looks like my step baby brother. Once he grows up he's going to look like him the only difference is that my brother is lighter in complexion than he is and has brown hair.
MEOW these people were made for free Labour
John Martin who people??
Wow. He looks like a lot o Africans you can find in many different African countries, how can you tell an Igbo from a Mbundu?
I admire your passion of our history! Peace and blessings from the Congo!
@Trevon Womack That's why I said our history.
You looked kinda disappointed that you had white in you 😂
Scopps94 no he is not happy to discover he has African inside
he had wanted to be like me but he will never be like me
there were black people in Britain
@@johnmartin6579 he knows damn well he would never be like you and he is proud of it
Who wouldn't be?
Tony Tony I would be mad too
Congrats bro!! I've noticed Black ppl who descend from the Caribbean usually have a higher African percentage! Most Blk/African Americans tend to have more mixture that's probably because the European population was so high here in America.
Depends on the Caribbean nation tbh I'd imagine blacks in the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico whud be more mixed.....
***** Yeah you're right it does depend on which Caribbean nation! Dominicans and Puerto Ricans are all mixed up. Lol
kandi preciado Yeah that's also true! I'm from Louisiana alot of blk ppl from here are mixed too. Are you from SC if you don't mind me asking?? Because i know alot of Gullah/Geechee ppl live down their and they tend to have a higher African percentag because of isolation.
+dope ish
but Oprah is one of those who has no European. she has majority sub Saharan African, American Indian and east Asian.

Wow!!!!! I'm so happy for you!!!!! You have a high percentage from around Benin and Togo, then Nigeria,....ranks second place,.....be attentive Nigeria came in second opposed to Ghana/Ivory Coast,.....It seems as though you have a decent amount of Ewe, Fon, Yoruba ancestry,......peoples who were all linked into the Oyo empire. Oyo of course was Yoruba, but I remember Oyo subjugated the Dahomey kingdom for a while which was Fon,....and exacted tribute as far as the Ewe in Togo. I know the Yorubas are also spread abroad in Benin and Togo a part from western Nigeria. What was wonderful about my dna testing experience my intuition gave me long believed hints about it, and knowing this made the experience all the more life changing when I got the results. My direct maternal ancestry went back to the Yoruba of Nigeria, and my direct paternal went back to the Ashanti of Ghana. I can not wait to take the more comprehensive admixture test from ancestry.com.
I also noticed on another video you mentioned your direct maternal lineage went back to the Fulani of Guinea Bissau,.....in the admixture test presented here I guess your Fulani foremother that came through the Middle Passage's is factored in your 9 per cent Mali or your 5 per cent Senegal represented in the trace regions seeing that Guinea Bissau borders Senegal and Mali having Fulani natives and your Mbundu Angolan direct paternal lineage is factored in the 12 per cent Southeastern Bantu, or either the 4 per cent of your Cameroon/Congo dna represented in the trace regions, seeing that this area is predominantly Bantu, and the Mbundu descended down through these parts during the Bantu expansion coming out of Cameroon.
That's exactly what I was thinking...great points
The only problem is that Ancestry has no samples from Angola or Guinea-Bissau I believe
+HomeTeam History Yeah, what's great about the people in the Senegal, Guinea, Guinea Bissau, Mali, Liberia, Sierra Leone region,......there has been considerable intermarriage their histories testify of it,.....I guess it was due to the empires and kingdoms in these regions(mostly Mande as you are probably aware) had so many kingdoms or empires that united multiple ethnic groups. You'll even see it reflected in African Ancestry's direct lineage dna test results,....where as more than often you'll hear of person having links to people in Senegal, Guinea Bissau and Sierra Leone or Liberia on one lineage, reflecting a common ancestor's dna has dispersed among ethnic groups in all these countries. Oh yeah' you'll be shocked how very much all the Bantu peoples are interrelated, due to the original Bantu migration coming out of Cameroon and Southeast Nigeria. The Mbundu are said to arrive into Angola around the 14th century, and for some reason they have a distinct link to the Igbo.
+HomeTeam History I mentioned that indirect link the Mbundu have with the Igbo due to the fact more than once I've seen African Americans receive dna test results from African Ancestry with the Igbo of Nigeria and Mbundu of Angola being on one lineage; a single ancestor whose genes had been dispersed among the Igbo and the Mbundu. I'm guessing this is due to the Bantu expansion, and the Mbundu being recent products of it arriving in Northern Angola in the 14th century. Rick Kittles the founder of African Ancestry mentioned, mostly at one point in time the Igbo and Mbundu were either one, or lived within vicinity of each other. It makes sense because the Igbo are from Southeast Nigeria, a midst the region the Bantus originated out of along with Cameroon.
Interesting results! I used to think u were from Nigeria or Benin but living in America.
💯💯 👊🏿 proud African descent man,respect.
There are a quite a few people from Caribbean with 100% African Ancestry. As for skin colour. I have Nigerian friends and they all have different skin complexions from light to dark. They are 100% African, they have no slave history.
I did Ancestry and got 96% African my family Jamaican and I have Jamaican Maroon heritage.

Yo I took a DNA test with ancestry it said I'm 71 percent African and 27 European, (my grandpa was white). I'm 36 Nigerian, 12 ivory coast, 11 Cameroon and Togo, 6 Mali, 3 Benin/Togo region and very small amounts of southern eastern Bantu and central hunter gathers. the results are cool but I don't mind too much about the results because nations such as Nigeria, Camroon and Mali etc were drawn up by european powers and doesn't tell me what tribe I'm from. I know im most likely descended from Fulani, Igbo or Yoruba because those are the dominant ethnic groups in Nigeria which I got most. Which DNA test did you use previously?
The other test was analzed by Sorenson Genomics but they work with a company called African Ancestry
HomeTeam History thanks, love your channel btw!
We might be cousins. What's your paternal haplogroup?
Greetings! I would like to know if you'll make video about African urban legends and mythology monsters.
Wow!!!! 91% I am jealous.....Lol. I only have 85%. That is wonderful I am really happy for you.
From an Igbo connoisseur (lol). You look 1000% Igbo.
yeah
Most African-Americans are of Igbo ancestry.
@@qiqiyawn8683 he's caribbean
Do you have an update on your regions? I guess they would have been updated by now.
I love when RUclipsrs... share their DNA Ancestry Results...You're blacker than me...(From George Lopez Show) so I'm a bit jealous. I've only done one test so far but I do plan to do others. Especially because I want to know my tribal lineage.
87% African (Ivory Coast/Ghana - 29%, Cameroon/Congo - 21%, Nigeria - 16%, Senegal - 9%, Benin/Togo - 7%, Africa South Eastern Bantu - 4%, & African South Central Hunter-Gatherer - 1%)
1% East Asian
12% European :(
Dope!
susu biixi lol...I'm sorry if that was offensive. Its just the more I learn about my African heritage the more I want my blood to be 100%. And because the world sees me as black. As a negro no matter what blood runs through my veins. I would be laughed at to even try to say I'm mixed. I have no European or Asian relative that I know personally. The Asian blood is barely there but the European is a heafty amount for me as a black woman. But its something that will never be acknowledged in me so I'm not to keen on it being there.
Thank You for your insight. I agree with you and understand. I plan to do other test simply because they spark my interest but I know they are very skewed and subjective. I'm aware that the whole world was black at one time. And that the original peoples of most all lands to include Asia and Europe were black. The real Native Americans were black not Mongolians. But thanks to $5 Indians things were reclassified and Native Americans (the black ones) were killed, enslaved, and called black not Native American. That title went to Mongolians and even that is being reclassified to Europeans being the Native Americans.
"12% European :(". Oh, go fuck yourself.
Amanda Tessmer It just might be too late. I might already be "F****d". 12% European.....By your little comment I see your feelings are hurt. Which also tells me you're European. You must not know about you very own bloodline. Europeans are Neanderthals. Don't get mad at me about it. Direct all your misplaced anger to your own people because thats who taught me about it. The information is everywhere straight out of European mouths that not only say Europeans carry the Neandertuhal gene but they also point out that Negros don't have Neanderthal blood :) (Is a smile better for you?)
Thanks for this! I'm Jamaican on my dad's side and my top regions. on Ancestry DNA for Africa (87% total) were Benin/Togo (25%), Cameroon/Congo (21%), Ivory Coast/Ghana(14%), and Mali (13%). Is there a way I could figure out the specific group I closely relate to?
I would say African Ancestry can narrow your maternal and paternal ancestry
Gedmatch
This is so cool how it breaks down all the countries in Africa you share ancestry with!
I did the ancestry. com DNA testing but I want to know exactly what tribes I decent from. I know I'm 87% African and 13% European.
+Asia sadler I hope that can be done one day not too long from now. RIght now there just hasn't been enough West African reference data anywhere and I think even when a company finally does have more data for West Africa (and East Africa and Central) it still won't be enough to accurately say anything, and will probably only tell what ethnic groups we have "affinity" to not much better than what ancestry.com does now.
I don't know how accurate AfricanAncestry is with their maternal/paternal lineage testing but they're way too exploitive with their pricing.
Ohh cool, didn’t know you were Jamaican and Antiguan. I’m glad you found out about you African ancestry
Always enjoy your informative and relaxed delivery in your videos man. How much did a DNA test cost, sounds interesting to have a look at. Cheers from Scotland
Combination of Benin and Nigeria... Yoruba. You actually have the intelligence and brilliance of a yoruba man.
Cool!! I'm Mexican & I got 19% African, mostly Nigeria 🇳🇬 & 64% Native American. Check out my ancestry ancestry DNA results on my channel. Nice beanie! 👌🏽 To me the African DNA was the most fascinating & my NATIVE American, well im Stil digesting it. I just can't believe i had such a high number.
What do you look like?
MelaniteX what's your IG
It's MelaniteX
MelaniteX what's YOU profile pick look like
MelaniteX add me @marcus_afro_boy
Those are great results, Home Team. What they reveal is that, at .least, 53% or over half of your African genome DNA profile is similar to targeted populations located within the "Bight of Benin". This could suggest or hint that you have lineages found in said region. They could include a number of ethnic possibilities - namely Ewe, Ga, Fon, Yoruba, Fante, and or Igbo, for example. But supporting evidence (NOT CONCLUSIVE) would reflect in your DNA matches of individuals with direct roots (parents/four grandparents) from there. And if regional score show none Zero in the range, that's even better; it only strengthens the supporting evidence. Your paper trail and or oral family history would further solidify the linkage.
Comparing your maternal and or paternal haplogroups helps to hone in too (e.g., Y-DNA subhaplogroup E-P252/U174 is heavily concentrated in the modern countries of Ghana, Nigeria, and Cameroon) - additional supporting evidence of potential lineages in the focus area. These are examples how you interpret your results. I hope this helped.
Cool results!
I am over 93% (some tests report over 96%) African. My dad is from the Bahamas and mom’s family from the Carolinas.
My maternal line is Yoruba. 😊
I want to get my brother tested for the Paternal line. My dad passed away before this science was available to the public at the rate it is now. ✌🏾
We're so similar! Both of my parents were born in Jamaica - but my results were: 94% African - 35% Benin/ Togo - 24% Nigeria - 15% South Eastern Bantu - 11% Ivory Coast/Ghana - 4% Mali - 3% Cameroon/Congo... then traces of Senegal and South Central H&G.............. 6% European(but I ain't worried about all that)lol
I know you said not to take the regions seriously, but I can't help it - Please could you do more videos on the Benin/Togo Region? Dahomey, Benin Empires - or on the Fon or Ewe people? It's weird how he separated these two countries sandwiched between Nigeria and Ghana...
Also the South Eastern Bantu part is a little bit confusing.......I mean it's such a huge area - from Kenya to South Africa - Luo to Xhosa - it doesn't tell me much!
In any case, keep up the good work, your videos give me so much life! -Peace.
ah - I see you with the Benin video! perfect!
Benin Togo + Significant Nigerian = Yoruba.
@ J O, Yoruba did not colonize other Yoruba people in modern day Benin/Togo. In fact, before The Berlin Conference of 1884-85, the following areas in Benin/Togo has indigenous Yoruba people and they were part of Oyo empire.
In Benin
Estimates of the Yoruba in Benin vary from around 1.1 to 1.5 million people. The Yoruba are the main group in the Benin department of Ouémé, all Subprefectures including Porto Novo (Ajasè), Adjara; Collines Province, all subprefectures including Savè, Dassa-Zoume, Bante, Tchetti, Gouka; Plateau Province, all Subprefectures including Kétou, Sakété, Pobè; Borgou Province, Tchaourou Subprefecture including Tchaourou; Zou Province, Ouihni and Zogbodome Subprefecture; Donga Province, Bassila Subprefecture and Alibori, Kandi Subprefecture. (2)
In Togo
Estimates of the Yoruba in Togo vary from around 500,000 to 600,000 people. There are both immigrant Yoruba communities from Nigeria, and indigenous ancestral Yoruba communities living in Togo. Indigenous Yoruba communities in Togo, however can be found in the Togolese departments of Plateaux Region, Anie, Ogou and Est-Mono prefectures; Centrale Region and Tchamba Prefecture. The chief Yoruba cities or towns in Togo are: Atakpame, Anié, Morita, Ofe, Kambole. (2)

Don't rely on whatever Wikipedia says lol.. I'm from Benin-Togo most of the people from Southern Benin and Togo lived under the Oyo Emipre... We are all mixed mostly with Yoruba if anything.
Sika Abbey you said you are from Togo-Benin. Interesting, as your last name (Abbey) is a common Ghanaian last name of those indigenous of their Greater Accra region. By chance are you from Aneho in Togo?
Well I am Ewe. Ewes were originally from Nigeria and moved into present-day Volta-Region Ghana, Togo, and Benin. My family spreads across all three countries. I am not from Ghana. However, I am Ewe and Fon from Togo. My mother is from Aneho and Atapkame and those regions are Mina and Yoruba areas....So essentially my family cannot trace our roots back to Nigeria but we definitely have family in Ghana, Togo, and Benin.
Yorùbá from the Idanre Hills here, sending greetings to the beautiful and diverse people of the Yorùbá confederacy. How do we bring our people together, from the Yorùbás of Brazil to those of our ancestral home of Ile-Ife?! Our progenitors are Nubians , who migrated to Sudan, some settled whilst our ancestors settled in Yorubaland.
the Krahn, Grobo, and Kru are the remnants of Songhai Empire btw.
That's awesome, I'm definitely going to try this! Thank you for sharing! Your beautiful and I appreciate you! Peace and Love
Congratulations!!!! That's beautiful!
There are Haplogroup predictors online that you can input the DNA markers in.
I love how you explained your results
Tbh when you read your results from the other test, I was a bit skeptical given your ethnic background. So I am glad you did ancestry.com test to compare. It sounds a bit more accurate but that's just my opinion. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks brother for the video. This gives me inspiration to check mines. My father is fro. Haiti and moms is African American from North Carolina.
I'm sure your 2020 updates have changed your percentages to make Nigeria the majority. You clearly have Igbo ancestry.
In Nigeria, you can tell a person's tribe by the way they look, and if you were in Nigeria, everyone will swear you are IGBO.
How does the Youra plp look like?
It sounds like you've also tested with African Ancestry, Matriclan/Patriclan. You mentioned that your maternal is Fulani. Truthfully, AA offers low resolution tests ONLY. Therefore, it cannot determine direct ethnicity as of yet. What it does indicate is SHARED ancestry but origin. That goes for the Patriclan test as well, which analyzes only eight markers (very limited compared to the standard 12 markers). Honestly, eight markers are not enough data to confirm any lineage let alone ancestry. It can reveal cluster groups or shared relationships. So, please keep that in mine when reviewing African Ancestry lineage tests.
+Karr Radd I hope something better come along in the not too distant future.
Bless and love from Wadadli, My Brother... Keep up the good fight and continue to drop the knowledge... Son of the soil, Antiguan and Afro-Caribbean... Peace...
91% African very good
Thank you for sharing your results! 95% Africa
Im from the low country too
Most slaves in South Carolina came from Angola 🇦🇴 in central Africa not Sierra Leon 😂😂 do u even know about stono rebellion The Stono Rebellion (also known as Cato's Conspiracy or Cato's Rebellion) was a slave revolt that began on 9 September 1739, in the colony of South Carolina. It was the largest enslaved rebellion in the Southern Colonies, with 25 colonists and 35 to 50 Africans killed.[1][2] The uprising was led by native Africans who were likely from the Central African Kingdom of Kongo, as the rebels were Catholic and some spoke Portuguese.
Actually almost of black American came from Angola🇦🇴 and Congo🇨🇩. And that’s final
Hometeam when i first saw u i say “ he look likes a Congolese man” mbuntu there it goes
We could be cousins. I'm 95% African & 4 % British. I used a different company however there wasn't a lot of swirling in my bloodline and I'm proud of that.
From the first time I saw you on RUclips I thought you were from Benin or Nigeria!!!! It’s nice to know that I was somehow right!!
Accepting ranges makes more sense than looking for a finite number-in terms of dna by race %.
I don't believe the science is THAT exact to accept anything else.
What up Home Team? , your channel is dope .
I appreciate your awesome content .I took Ancestry .com test . They say I am 96% African , 4 % European. I am still shocked .
They say black males in the diaspora usually don't score that high . I have a high percentage of Nigeria , and Benin & Togo . Both of my parents are from Jamaica .
Maybe that explains the high percentage. I don't know why , I feel a strong draw to Nigeria & Benin & Togo .
What are all of the tests you've taken?
Not according to Jamaicans I've heard alot of them as well as Belizean ppl act as if they do not even have a drop of AFRICAN blood on top of the(Epidemic) with folks bleaching there skin in Jamaica
How many Jamaican have you spoken to ? why do people generalized a whole country when referring to few.
There seems to be some controversy about where the ibos/igbos of Nigeria actually came from. The ibos according to some elders are different from the igbos. It seems unclear where they all come from, although some, more recently believe that they are from Israel. It all seems so strange. Please shed some light.
home team love the videos coming from Antigua
I did both 23andMe as well as Ancestry and both had my ethnicity estimate at 95% Sub-Saharah African, with low confidence of 2% Native American and 2% Asia Central and
i got 91% African, too! The only difference is I had 8% European and 1% Central Asian. The European half was Eastern, Irish, Finnish/Northwestern Russian, and Scandinavian. I didn't have anything from Western Europe, Mongolia, Caucus, or Native American.
African ancestry DNA company is better. you'll find out what tribe your from and everything
Yes I agree thats the test I took years ago...Thats how I know my maternal ancestry is Fulani and my Paternal is Mbundu
that's awesome my brother. I'll be taking mines soon. I'll go watch that video. I know you had to be amaze to know your tribes. Keep up the good work. I've always enjoyed your videos. Nice to see our people embrace our African heritage
+Akhnaten Xiaolo
It's a money making scheme.
Tribes/Clans are social constructs.... DNA can't really test or trace your tribal lineages.
They're just selling false dreams to people.
Continental Cushite it maybe social construct to extent but you can't deny African ethics groups. Africans are genetically different from inside and out. Their facial structure, skull, and body as well as DNA. Describing African people from one another is no different than describing a Chinese person from Japanese person yet both are "Asian". You don't know much about Biology do you?.
It's not as complexed as it seems. What they do is they take all the common folk of the certain tribe or ethic group DNA and record their genetic markers.
A genetic marker is a gene or DNA sequence with a known "location" on a chromosome that can be used to identify individuals or species. It can be described as a variation if mutation or alteration in the genomic loci that can be observed. It's like mapping out genetic codes.
it's not hard to take a African descent person DNA from the U.S. and match it with variations of recorded DNA from the African continent
Akhnaten Xiaolo
Don't know much about biology ?
Hahahaha I've studied medical genetics past degree level, I've carried out genetic sequencing first hand and have studied some of the most complex hereditary diseases and the genetic/environmental factors involved, not only this..... I've studied the prevalence of certain diseases in relation to different populations "population genetics".
So I'm well versed in the matter.
Whereas you clearly have very little to no clue......
Forget about the differences between a Bantu and a Khoisan individual or a Nilote or Cushite or Amazigh or a Nubian individual. These populations have more or less remained isolated and largely unmixed for thousand or so years and can easily be distinguished between one another genetically and through our visual instruments of observation "naked eye observations of the different phenotypes".
Autosomal studies are what most of these companies use to test the relationship of an individual with different populations, haploid lineages of individuals are also taken into account. Everyone carries their own unique autosomal STR/SNP genetic profile which is then matched up against others "reference panel" to measure a person’s genetic connections to world populations.
Your results are only as good as the reference panel/Samples you have......
The variety/variation within tribes may be overlooked or maybe unaccounted for if different unrelated individuals from all the different regions the tribe inhabit are not tested...... additionally there maybe overlap between different populations as a result of admixture and other migration events.
Many groups along the years may have become assimilated into the mix, there may also be different founding lineages that dispersed early on and account for a different variety amongst the groups but are still indigenous......
All in all these tests have their limitations and too many people over-estimate the predictive powers of these tests. Speak to any genealogist/geneticist who's deeply involved in the field or ancestry and they'll also share the same sentiments as I do.
Where did you find that maternal and paternal tribe lineage
Africanancestry.com
Without listening to your results you look very Igbo.
NaturalMystic71 a lot of people of color look a like from around the world dear. shocks me every time I travel to see how much we are the same.
I got 85% African, 13% Europe, 1% East Asian (trace region), and >1% middle eastern.
I understand the Asian part because that comes from my greatx5 grandmother who was a black foot Native American.
But what I don't understand is the middle eastern and the 1% North African? Do you know why some African Americans have this.? I'm taking another test that comes from at geo project and I'm thinking about taking the African ancestry test as well. But idk how accurate that one is ; being that it can pinpoint the tribe you come from... despite the fact that I am mixed with A LOT OF DIFFERENT AFRICAN COUNTRIES!
Ivory Coast/Ghana 36%, Nigeria 17%, Cameroon/Congo 14%,
Trace regions:
Mali 7%
Senegal 3%
Africa southeastern Bantu 3%
Benin/Togo 3%
Africa south-central hunter-gatherers 1%
Africa North 1% ( where does this come from?)
Europe:
Great Britain 11%
Trace Regions:
Ireland 2%
Asia:
Trace region
Asia east 1%
Middle eastern >1% ( what does this come from?)
Some African-Americans have North African in my opinion beacause of Berbers and Fulani... imo. There are Berbers in Sub-Saharan Africa.
oooooh!! that would make sense with the Senegal ancestry that i have, being that that is where the Berbers orginated. is that info correct? Ive heard people say that the Berbers originated froma tribe in sengal...
Never heard that before lol
Congratulations on your results! Is it possible yet to find out the specific ethnic group in Benin/Togo area that you came from? Maybe Dahomey region?
Thats what I was saying... Thats why I dont care for Ancestry.com because they give you general regions and cant break down the specific ethnic group. African Ancestry is better in my opinion because they tell you what specific ethnic group you come from and they understand the history
HomeTeam History It would be nice to get the exact ethnic group(s) for each country in the DNA mix. Maybe it will cost more to narrow it all down. You are doing a great job, thank you so much for it, and pls keep it up. I share your channel with friends.
HomeTeam History do african ancestry i know i’m three years late lol but i just did my maternal and paternal test
You should research which haplogroup groups you come from. The DNA sequences that the companies give you will help you figure it out.
At first i thought you are from Nigeria, you look Nigerian your face is like Edo people in benin
Good vid. I was 80% African, primarily Ghana (32%), the rest was mainly Europe and Iraq region.
have you ever thought about doing a third one for African ancestry.com to see for specific detail
I did thats how I know my maternal ancestry is Fulani and my paternal is Mbundu
HomeTeam History
oh ok
HomeTeam History
what I find interesting is that you can find old photos or drawings of pre colonial west Africa on Google images of cities and tribes
First, coming from Caribbean parents I can truly believe the 91% (of one percent of your DNA) African Ancestry and 9% European. Now, Brother Hometeam, please check out Dr.Hank Greelee a law Professor at Stanford University (specialist in New DNA Tech.) and RUclips video: Exposed DNA Hoax. Always great information!
Nice...its good you went and did multiple test. Good video. keep it up.
I loved you on the 'Cosby show' and 'Malcolm & Eddie'
Lol..lmao..haha
i just got a african ancestry looking forward to my results
Congrats , do you know where Antiguan people from. Explain why so many places . I understand Britain. I am trying to understand why your DNA is spread so much in Africa , is it the traveling they did and settled please clear up so I can gain a better understanding.
Most African-Americans are of Igbo ancestry by far.
thanks brother peace love light balance and harmony infinite
Damn my mom is Jamaican and my dad is Antiguan too. I need to do this.
Yorùbá boy! My our ancestors Lamurudu, Oduduwa and our mother Goddess Osun bless you and all you are.
My mom is Antiguan and my Father is Jamaican
The moors are from Eastern Africa so if someone say they’re moors still Africa yes you will find a lot of Moore’s generations from the Philippine yes the first indentured race of people to occupy the Philippine islands
17% nigerian=100% nigerian :)
If I were to guess what tribe you may be descended from I would guess 1.Yoruba or 2.Igbo
Cool. Im Somali and my dad just took a test. Interested to see the results.
A. OM cool Im eritrean and would like to know your dads results
Dat's wassup. I did Ancestry & 23 and me. My African was only off .5 %. GedMatch have my highest frequency to Fulani (of Nigeria).
Which calculator did you use.
Powerful thing to know bro!
You have inspired me to do mine. 👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾
What is needed is for Black Americans to read ancient sub-Saharan books in African languages not read European books or European books translated from Arabic and then try to change them. Also I wish that I could believe they understand Latin and Greek when they quote Latin or Greek expressions
Beninese and togolose brother, I am so happy that you know who you are now :)
Great video. Can you do a review of Black Panther.
Do you get the paternal and maternal tests with this one?
No you don't...that's African Ancestry that does that
Damn!!! 91% African.
Have you tried AfricanAncestry.com? It is awesome i havent tried it but i have seen people take it and the founder Dr. Gina showing their results and all on youtube.
Also they point out the type of Tribe your from in that particular African country, they show you the African Country and the Tribe.
You are Angolan brother.
And now you need to do 23andme to round off the set.
What tests dictate your parents Lineage?
91%African?
Sweet....
Yo I would love to meet you. you seem like the kinda person who's Company I would enjoy.
From indication of where he’s from Benin and Togo, those are a Yorubas people not igbo, and yorubas dominate Atlanta where is dad is from.
You beat me by 1%...lol
African Ancestry has more samples than Ancestry.com
HOME TEAM HISTORY ⚘.♥️🖤💚.DAPHNE COTTON 💜...● BROWN FAMILY.
the small percentage of european is from africans that migrated there
No most likely from slave owners. If that was the case then Africans would also have European ancestry but they dont. Only diaspora does.
I swear u dont look fulani, not one bit! You are west African... U look like an Igbo guy.. So..
Fulani is west African too... where do you think you are from? Middle East?...
I still don't understand the fascination with these tests. Someone please explain.
Michael Jordan
Many Black Americans in particular have no idea where they come from and want to know. Most of us are black ppl walking around with a slave masters last name (German, British, French,etc ), thinking and talking in English as a FIRST language with no idea what country of origin their lineage is from.....and the mirror let's us know most or everything about your culture is lost. Ppl want to know who they really are so they take tests (although I don't put a lot of faith in these tests).
Michael Jordan you don't understand the fascination of your make up? of your ancestors and national heritages. it is very important, particularly for black Americans and carribeans that they know as most largerly forgot their origins due to slavery
kwadwo baidoo I understand that but it's extremely popular with the whites too. How is fascinating to discover Black people are of African decent?
+Michael Jordan
because they want to know where in Africa their ancestors came from
I see where you're coming from I think it's better for people who have mixed ancestry (who don't know a parent) but locating it too the the specific African region is quite cool
I thumbs up because of your smile😊
Great Results
