Everywhere...You never there.
the whole marketing of the service is.. 'YOU MAY HAVE GENETICS YOU DONT KNOW ABOUT' so why would someone who is clearly of African decent, mention being of African decent first? we can see that, its about genetics you wouldn't think you had. furthermore he more than likely didn't write the script.

Some love to bask in the recently discovered / scientifically confirmed "genetics they [didn't] know about " tho ... don't they ?

no trolling, this is a serious question since you might be more well versed into the dynamics and structure of dna. 25% is a very significant number. How is it possible the average african american has 25% European dna but the average african american cant trace a single white relative? I've traced my family history back on both sides to the early 1800's and not a single white relative. That's over 200 years. Most black folks I know (born of two black parents) cant trace a white relative either. My parents both tested under 13% European dna..I know "average" but 25% just seems like a number they put out and people blindly accept.
Did you really trace it .. what I mean is that obviously each one of your ancestors had two parents did you trace it back from every parent or did you just go with your last name?

white people can say, "I'm German/Spanish/Polish in my moms ancestry and Italian/Russian/Chilean thru my fathers ancestry"....and it's cool......but if black person says they have anything in their ancestry but African, nikkas wanna clown or call them c00ns, etc.

SMH

hardly NOBODY in America is 100% anything in their genetic makeup.

by parent
So what I'm asking is this ...

let's take a random ancestor

your great grandmother on your mother's side

did you find out her who her great grandparents were?

Let's try another random ancestor

did you find out who your great grandfather on your father's side parents were and their entire line? His great grandmother's father and mother and their father and mother?

To be comprehensive this has to be done with every ancestor so in the end at the very least you should know every grandparent or even better great grandparent's line on both sides of their families.

You can see that this is way more people than are usually included in the family tree..

How far did you go back?
