Yikes its crazy that shes ready to melt down just because part of her family isn't originally from Africa. She should be happy to have learned something new about herself yet she acts as if her entire world is crumbling.

I can understand being shocked at the results but angry? Come on...

Why does she care so much? She's acting so nervous and shit. Who cares that much? I'm white... if my ancestors are from Kenya, it doesn't make me not white... she's still black.

Didn't watch the video but I am guessing she is the type that based her entire life and identity around African pride

Exactly. I assume and have been told that i'm mostly Scottish/English. If I found out I had a substantial amount of African in me Id be surprised but thoroughly intrigued not upset.

actually a haplogroup literally only takes one drop

all it means that if you go back on her maternal line, it starts with a white person however many centuries ago. also african americans on average get up to 20% european ancestry. you know, slavery and all that...

I think the report mentioned mitochondrial DNA, which is only carried by the ovum. Sperm is made without mitochondria. If she is only the daughter of daughters of daughters, her mitochondrial lineage will stay the same. Only a son can have a child with different mitochondrial DNA, since it will come from his female partner.

The rest of her maternal lineage DNA (nuclear DNA), likely does contain black ancestry.

Thank you, Parasite Eve.

No, but one doesn't have to be to tell someone is not 100% African. But I don't know why you're still arguing this since she's not anyway.

all african-americans have at least some european ancestry. unless the girl is directly from africa or had parents directly from africa, she shouldn't be surprised.

she was disappointed more because she wanted to know where in africa her ancestors are from, not necessarily because she has some european ancestry

I thought we rejected the "one drop rule" several generations ago...

I mean most black slave descendants America have white ancestors all through their family lines, for obvious and uncomfortable reasons. I don't think we started passing anti-miscegenation laws to prevent racial intermarriage for like a couple decades after slavery was abolished.

That said, the one-drop-rule was more commonly used by white supremacists to ostracize people appeared white, but whose whiteness was sullied by having a non-white ancestry somewhere in the family tree. To what extent that's in vogue waxes and wanes with the strength of reactionary politics of the time. For example, if you look at the Alt Right's 'White Genocide' fearmongering, you can see the literal one-drop-rule's intellectual DNA woven all through that narrative. The one-drop-rule is back now with a distressing force.

The only difference between then and now is that those people now believe interracial marriage and the like is actually a cultural weapon masterminded by globalists (Jewish people) intent to destroy 'whiteness' by 'diluting' it with other races.

Africa is the birthplace of humanity and civilization.

It is a high honor to be descended from the continent.

Luckily, everyone is, even you.

all people have a maternal haplogroup, which is a cluster of DNA passed from mother to mother which can be useful for determining ones deep ancestry from that one particular line in your genetic history (men also have a paternal haplogroup, because it's carried by the y chromosome)

she's definitely 80+% black, it's just if you go back throughout her maternal line (not necessarily all of her mother's ancestors, just her mother's mother's mother's etc) then it starts with a white woman. she's still obviously majority sub saharan african
