...and people that I personally know in real life.

It's clear to me that you don't know any Africans.

An African man recounts his family's oral history of ancestors who disappeared and confirmation of their loss to the slave trade by finding cousins in America and the Caribbean using DNA.

I can tell because you are regurgitating the same things that people say in those videos. I also noted, I'm black and am a member of various online genealogical groups that focus on African American ancestry. In those groups, we often have a poster such as yourself join and then go on a "black Indian" sort of spiel and they say the same things you are saying on this forum. I've witnessed this for about 5 years now since I joined online genealogical groups that focus on African American ancestry. It happens at least twice a month and the person gets all upset that no one considers their YouTube videos and memes and snippets of people's opinions as proof of anything. Those persons also usually start off by claiming not to be able to find anything about their ancestry because of their indigenous ancestry being stolen from them.


So you fit the pattern of many people I've come across. The whole not "of Africa" thing for African Americans is very sad to me that many people today are still buying into the idea that being of African ancestry is bad/inferior to indigenous ancestry.



And as I noted above - many African Americans have some indigenous ancestry, including myself. But it is flat out stupid to think that a significant amount or even a majority of our recent ancestors (from the past 300-400 years) were not from Africa.

Also check the people from the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, also in the Indian Ocean.

On this - the Sentinelese, Adamanese, etc., they are of African ancestry. They are some of the oldest groups of people in the world, as are Australasians. All people have roots in Africa. Some populations, like the aforementioned were isolated for a much longer period of time in environments that did not cause the evolution of melanin/skin color as is seen in other groups of people around the globe.



However, I'll note, like I did above that a significant amount and/or majoirty of AFrican Americans have recent ancestry - within the past 400 years - from the African continent and specifically West African tribes. To deny this is buying into propaganda and delusions. Also it is indicative of viewing black/African ancestry as inferior to other people.

A totally crack pot theory not backed by science or intelligent logic. This thread is about Native American genealogy and Native American DNA not about your silly theories about the Toltecs being black etc. and that Black people originated in the Americas.

Speaking of the original topic, the OP has not been back. Who knows if they're even reading at this point?

It's possible they are reading I start threads and then never post on them occasionally because I want to see where it goes without my input. Native Americans and First Nations peoples are very under tested more genetic populations need to be collected.

Closed. If this ever happens again, that a thread veers almost entirely off topic, please report it. Posts have been deleted but still, we are way off from what the topic was. Moderators cannot read every thread. Thank you.
