I need to get around to taking mine. From what I've read, the science behind this is sound, if imperfect, with positive externalities. That is, the more popular this becomes the more accurate it will be.

Congrats on the results. I love to hear about my people reclaiming their identity and getting a stronger understanding of self.

ok

so both parents from that part of the country right?


im asking becasue I remember @Akan posted a source that southeastern blacks have higher amounts of african blood than Western counterparts or I think anyplace else.

and your #s are seen in black ppl from southeast from the info i read in that source


Yup Black people in Georgia and South Carolina, especially near the Sea Islands, usually have a higher percentage of African DNA than Black people in the rest of the Country.

dont fetishize akhi
Who said it was fetishising...it's restoring the natural order:stopitslime: of blackness back into the future generations similar to what Lord Jamar said in a Vlad interview after certain ancestors coooning compromised some of my African features.

Now if I was PAWG chasing for beige babies would you say the same?

"On the other end of the same spectrum Southern Louisiana (New Orleans) And cities on the West coast had some of the highest averages of white DNA at 23-26%. This is also not a surprise, knowing the history of these regions. Southern Louisiana was once settled by the French and Spanish. There are a large numbers of Blacks here who are more than 50% white. Many of whom would not be recognized as Black by most Americans. Migrants from this area moved in large numbers to the west coast rather than the industrialized north during the two great migrations. Here they mixed even more giving us the percentages at the higher end. "

this might be your answer to why West has more non-black blood

Those are kind of strange results. That 22% Asian probably means you have Native Americans in your family or one of your grandparents is from Asia or India or somewhere like that. So until you explain then I assume that you have some Injuns in your family.

Interestingly enough though that Pacific Islander score might be related to one of the groups above or it could be that one or more of your ancestors are descended from Malagasy people of Madagascar. I have seen quite a few African Americans with Polynesian results, which I have learned is from the English and Portuguese taking slaves from the Island of Madagascar.

I would, Id prefer to marry and have kids with a black woman too, specifically Sudanese like you and I. But girls are more than just their features, they're humans. I'd be just as weirded out if you said you want to have kids with a light skin girl to have specific features on your baby. It's a weird eugenics esque outlook on love.
