12:46 You are normal; I found out my Dad's Y-dna is R1b, so yeah as the motto goes "Know thyself", is a good thing. Those DNA results are enlightening.
My results are sort of similar to yours. My mother was Peruvian, and I have about 16% Native American DNA. I have been actively researching my family for several years and have made astounding discoveries, including the graves of ancestors, musical compositions they published, secret children, careers on the Broadway and London stage, a famous Rabbi, one met a President, several fled Bolshevism and the Irish potato famine, early deaths, and my great-great grandmother was literally a "Little Orphan Annie." Just a crazy, crazy family tree!
The most interesting thing I found out was unknowingly I dated a third cousin! We were from different states there was nothing to lead us to believe we were related.
She's just like my grandma! Well almost. A Colored South African, half White, half Black-Indian-Asian. But she looked a lot like your sister when she was young.
Irish, Scottish and Cornish are Celtic. English are Saxons and small % dna can be traced to Romans. My mother found out at age 85 that her dad was not her biological, thanks to Ancestry.
why is YT reading my mind. I was just thinking about this and you found me. I was just in my linkedIn the algorithm tracking is real and right now i love it. thanks for the tips ❤. just subscribed
You look like a typical European. Your results are you like 90% European, 9% Native American and 1% (genetic noise) Black African. I honestly don't get why don't you just go along and call yourself European from South America? Why engage in mental gymnastics about 1% Black African, or 6% Native American from Panama?
This was amazing. I share a similar story. I did buy that house for my parents and got them out of the projects and then another retirement home in FL. Most people in business have no idea I even have that story. I live in a Manhattan condo and I’m very proud of “mi gente”
Well this past year all three of us girls (myself and 2 sisters) took ancestry DNA .. We are in our 60s and we found out our youngest sister had a different dad... It was a shocker, I am not even sure my dad knew even though my mother and dad never divorced or seperated. Come to find out, my youngest sisters apparent father happens to be our God father that owned a private school to which we all went to when we were very young. Since both of my parents passed before this DNA was done, we can not ask any questions... even our God parents are passed before my parents died so.... never know what skeletons are in those closets.... huh?
Well, african Americans and racist people still subscribe to the one drop rule, which is a very racist ideology that basically calls african genetics a tain%t on European blood. That girl looks mixed race and most african Americans dont look like her and most still retain their west african phenotype. Maybe African Americans and other racist people should stop bullying biracials into the black category? Jim crow days are over.
@@SimpleMinded221 Okay, what you said just bothered the hell out of me, who's bullying who? What does bullying have to do with this.. And this has nothing to do with no damn one drop rule.. I'm telling you how she looks, and black Americans look half and half, a lot of us look very West africans, and a lot of us do not look pure West africa. Black Americans on average have 15 to 30% European in their dna. That's on average it goes up higher in some black families. I don't need some white lady telling a black person.. how black people look.. The Women in my family look just like your sister... This has nothing to do with bullying mixed people.. We human beings are tribal and clannish we identify with race, black Americans have to be able to relate to mix race people. That's why they tend to call them black.. If they can't relate to them. I can almost guarantee you mixed race people wouldn't have a place in the black Americans society, at all.. So I don't mean I don't understand what you mean when you said bullying. nobody's bullying anybody. either you're part of our community or you're not. if you don't feel part of it, you don't come around black people... very simple. I tell mixed race people this all the time... if you break off.... This is not your race. and we're not your people. But historically speaking... Mixed people have been part of the black American society since the day we stepped off those slave ships..... Mixed race heritage is part of the African-American heritage, many of us have great grandparents, or a great great grandparent who were quote unquote mulattos, black Americans are de facto part White on average, that is equivalent to having a one white grandparent. the leader of the Black American society is a mixed race man... FREDERICK DOUGLASS! This is the race of Frederick Douglas. the African American community is the race of Frederick Douglas... Only untill recently Biracials have began to separate themselves, (probably because they have access to the White community now) But, the more they shift their identity.. the less access they'll have in the Black American community. I see lots of that... And also.. There are plenty of black people who do not see them as black either, So I don't know what you're talking about. If they become a different community and or a different race, the Black American community will reject them... And many of them have a very close connection to the Black American community, probably closer than your sister, your sister looks like she probably doesn't. But most of them (biracial) do, and most of them identify themselves as black as well. I have a problem with the ancestors bloodline being mixed in your family. But whatever.. Nobody's bullying anybody, what are you talking about. and black people who date interracially and have biracial children.. I tell them all the time..... You're causing problems in this community.
I know so many ppl taking 23andMe DNA test. Will you make another update how your family has or has not connected since first taking the test. Thanks !
Happened to me. At age 60 I learned who I thought was my biological father was not. It was ok by me because he always said I was not his when he was alive.
Going to tell you a not so secret, secret lmao A LOT of Natives have used 23andMe. And many know our tribes and are enrolled. Look inside your relative finder in 23andMe to see if you match with Natives, and you can easily figure out what tribe (s) you have links to.
This is definitely shocking and fascinating, I hope everything worked out for everyone as well as could be expected, if you have time please post an update if you are able to ❤️
I just came across your channel for the first time with the ancestry video regarding your mom, this is the next video I just watched and it actually does make me want to try it out with one of my dogs lol, I have thought about it in the past but I hadn’t followed through. I hope that you will do Lorelei’s dna in the future as well and will look forward to that :)
Did you ever find out about the half sibling of your mom's? I want to do a DNA on my twin grkids because it's been said they possibly have 5 half siblings. They know of one for sure. All this popping out kids and giving them away is going to lead to many shocking "I love you, but my DNA says you're my brother/sister!" So many don't know that their biological parents should have to leave contact info for the kids. They can give the names of parents then say don't contact us, at least they can look up info without contacting the biological perso.
