Is great to see African American who wants to find out more about their ancestry as an African I love it so much welcome my African brother and sister ✊🏾🙏🏾
Believe it or not it's a lot of black Americans want to know their African ancestry that's why so many of them are so angry not knowing your true Heritage and culture is painful and especially the way it was done African Americans and Caribbean people your whole identity and Heritage is taken away from you very painful till this day
marie yes just about all of us want to reconnect. Now we need Africans to take the test so we may reconnect to family.
Whats a black American?
@@panafricanismstrikesback if you don't know it's no use Steven trying to tell you dumbass and what's a white American
@@jaxsonpierre2363 Thank you for saying this. I can only speak for myself, but I feel very confused. As a bi-racial person, with such extreme dysfunction on both sides of the family, these conversations just didn't happen. The great-uncle or grandparent who may have known, they've all passed away. The only access I have to my own ancestry would be through this type of testing. I've always wondered if it's bullshit, so I'm only just now looking into it. Anyway, I resonated with you said about it being painful to not know who your people are, what mistakes they made that maybe I could learn from, what their triumphs were. I have no history beyond my deadbeat mother and the grandmother who reluctantly made an attempt to raise me.
I am a Ghanaian(Ewe Tribe) but I can trace my ancestors in Togo,Benin, Ivory Coast, Nigeria and across West Africa and we also inter married. So our current location may not be where we originally comes from. History tells us that all the tribes and ethnic groups moved around West Africa and beyond until the Europeans came and put borders amongst us.
So CONGRATULATIONS to both of you, YOU ARE BOTH TRUE WEST AFRICANS.
Does true
Cool C with this logic nobody can trace their roots not Africans, not Europeans, not Asians...non
@Cool C Just shut up!
Samuel Kobby, Look up one of your fellow tribesman, a brother from Ghana, Akwetey Amaah in the link I provide below; he reveals who the Ewe are & where you really come from (regarding your migration patterns). You are of the Most High's chosen people. Shalom. th-cam.com/video/pwrI9TquI28/w-d-xo.html&frags=pl%2Cwn
It's a facts
They're so in love! I so enjoy watching them interact! Blessings & Prosperity to You Guys!
Yeah you can tell they're genuinely happy together
I dont understand, you are like eachothers friend. It looks like, you have been together alot.
Cameroon south used to be Nigeria, up north Nigerians also have cameroonians
This is awesome! I had my DNA tested and 83% is West African, over 70% from Cameroon. What's up cuz!!!
I am Cameroonian based in the Netherlands ..Cameroonians are hospitable like the Ghanaians
I am a Tikar from Cameroon as well.
He definitely does have Sierra Leonean features. Congratulations to both of you! Welcome to the family.
Not gay but he fine af
I’m from Sierra Leone too
@@Tootisepop I'm 50.6 percent Sierra Leonean and 34 percent Nigeria 😍🖤
I'm from East Africa but I love your videos and I actually teared up a little while watching this video. Congrats to both of you and welcome back home brother and sister. One love!
What’s up bro, from America. What part of east Africa are you from?
Whether you come from mars or Jupiter , we ghanains love you all.
There is no mars nor jupiter. Those things are man made. We're on a flat plane.
@@dral22 that's your mind
true!!!
Dral B ...
you believe in the flat earth theory??
We love Ghana fam you guys are so awesome 😎
This was so touching and moving episode.
Am an ethnic Somali from Kenya and this clip moved my feelings as if am the one whose DNA has been revealed!
Happy for you guys to finally find your ancestry families ❤
Why an I crying??? 😭😭 So Happy For You Guys! 💪🏾✌🏾
I can understand why, it's longing for roots, that connection, I think every black person in the Diaspora has an uneasiness about ourselves because we know not where we come from. Just seeing this lovely family, who are just like you and I, who are living their dreams on the motherland and how passionate they are for each other and during the reveal touches all of us.
@@alfonsom8286 That's So True! We should all celebrate when any of us unlock doors to our past. This just made my heart smile. ❤
Shawn Smith Girl, me too! 😭😭
I just asked myself the same question? I literally have tears and chills, thats crazy
Hey cousin, I'm also Tikar from Cameroon congrats
@Professor What yes agree, I took an ancestry test as well, and Cameroon was my highest percentage.
@Professor What I just received my results from Ancestry and It says I'm 33 percent Cameroon/Congo/Southern Bantu and 32 percent Benin/Togo. Also 13 percent Ghana and 4 percent Mali with 1 percent Nigerian. 1 percent Native America and the other 16 percent is Euro. So I'm 83 percent African, but which is was 93 at least but it is what it is. I just knew I was a descent percentage of Nigerian but apparently I wasn't. But after reading your comment about your Igbo friend got me thinking that maybe I do have more Nigerian. I got this clue because my my sister had two Nigerian boyfriends. Something must have attracted them to her and the thought came to my mind that something about her must remind them of Igbo women back home. From this I was thinking we must have Nigerian in our roots or at least a good percentage. It's not a scientific theory, just a hunch.
@Professor What Also, Ancestry is probably thinking that they are finding the DNA in that Southeastern Nigeria, Cameroon, Congo and Southern Bantu to be so closely identical that what's the use of trying to separate them. They are all pretty much Family. Lol.
@Professor What huh?
Cameroon ppl speak french and english, the langauge of our oppresors
This is wonderful. So glad to have caught this video and to see the excitement you both shared with us all. Shalom to you and your beautiful family.
@@sdlshow wtf are talking about?😂😂😂😂😂 i cant make sense of what you saying.
@@sdlshow Facts?????
Redirecting hey fancy seeing you here love what you are doing, keep up the great work. Happy awakening 🙏🏿
All these fake and assumed DNA tests are derived from information provided by the same nations of the world whom have sworn to keep us ignorant to our true history and heritage. Their results will always show the so-called African-American is from some tribe of Africa. They will never show that any so-called African-American is actually from any tribe of Israel. They are continually trying to convince us all that we are of native African descent.
If you never know you are the original israelites. You want feel the need to return to the ways of your true ancestors and obey the Laws, Statutes and Commandments of TMH. Fake results will keep you asleep. Wake Up my people. PLEASE!!!!!!
In ready to get up out of here.
@@hutchcoservices Whether they show that we are from Israel or not does not take anything away from us either way. And I do believe that through the paternal line they can trace it back to Israel. The Word gives us clarification of who we are so we don't need others to do so. Also remember our people fled persecution to West Africa so it can still be traced back either way. At least that is my opinion about the situation. To be able to link your history up with a certain tribe opens the door in so many ways to who you are. There is a list of the people who are supposed to be Hebrew decendants. I will put the video link under here.
How awesome! I love when folks get their ancestry done and they can say the words, "my people," and truly mean it.
"My People,,,,👍 I like the sound of that,,,sounds so for real,,,,,Westcoast Listening.."
@@sharonjames6791 AND Halona Black.. I personally haven't had a DNA test because the people of Kenya, Nigeria and Ghana say i look like one of their Relatives! But it's really nice to see CONFIRMATION of what we already felt in our bones... up UP! you Mighty Race!
one people!
@@ghostdancer555 ONE!
Halona Black
Except this is inaccurate cause "our" people come from all over west africa. None of us come from just one tribe or country anymore. Hate this how they're going about these tests from this company. Seems dishonest and they're just selling a dream cause some of us want to belong to specific tribes. Lying to your own.... no good.
This is a Beautiful African American Love Story!
You guys are a Cameroonian /Sierra leonian couple 👌👌😍👍❤so emotional and your kids are all of it!
Very emotional 🖤❤💚!!!
I would rather say Tika/Mende. Cameroon/Sierra Leone are boundaries created by colonialism. Akans are the majority in Ghana and Ivory Coast, so cultural identity goes beyond country boundaries, and all these tribes are linked somehow. For example, why is fufu eaten from western to central Africa? Tribes were interlinked and did not have boundaries.
Yes great point!
@@rickasante Yeah, whites destabilized African continent by dividing and creating borders where they wanted.
😍
Enjoy your journey, ignore the naysayers who more than likely will never have the courage to explore what the world has to offer. Thank you both for sharing!
I'm from the "Ashanti tribe" 100%. I did not need the Ancestry DNA because I could smell the aroma of Fufu even if was 200 miles away. Nice video!!!
OMG John. I am actually a fan of you guys and I am from Sierra Leone. Welcome to the Sierra Leone family my brother.
I am from Sierra Leone but my ancestors were the returned slaves after the abolition of slavery.
WOW... you have a shared history with Africans in America AND AFRICA. my Nigerian brother would say.. You are Lord of 2 lands!
Yes indeed Paul. My great great ancestors were former slaves freed and sent back to Africa. So we are referred to as Creoles and my forefathers after the abolition of the slave trade were resettled in Freetwown, the Western Area of Sierra Leone. We speak broken English unlike the early settlers.That area of land was bought by the British from the Temne people, who where the early settlers on that piece of land.
Zeeqtee Prn If he was a descendant of a returnee wouldn’t he be in Africa?
What is your tribe name?
Me too am creole living in Georgia
I'm feeling and sharing y'all tears! Congratulations on reclaiming some of what has been stolen from us!!! You guys are a real inspiration to see, much love, much respect... y'all stay blessed. But what lames would watch the vid and thumbs down it... ??? That really confuses me, these anonymous haters who hate for absolutely no reason and hide in the shadows.
OMG!!! I just paused the video as soon as she said lion mountain! Your ancestry DNA have to be from Sierra Leone. You’re my brother wow!!! Isaiah Washington is also traced back to Sierra Leone. He is very active back there and visits all the time. We welcome you with open arms brother. Am currently in Maryland but born and raised in Sierra Leone. I have enjoyed watching your videos and now this makes it even better! Now back to the video😃. And also oh, we have diamonds! The movie blood diamonds was based on Sierra Leone. Also, we speak Krio as a local dialect which is very similar to Cameroon local dialect. It’s an English speaking country but most people do speak French just like Spanish in USA. I don’t know how you can reach me since I don’t want to leave my contacts here. I have connections for you. You guys are amazing and I love your family. And thumbs up for pronouncing “MENDE’” so well! Just like the locals😃
I am from Sierra Leone too Prinnybabe but currently living in London. Congratulations to you both Natve Borne. I am Mandigo and Mende by tribe . Stay blessed always
Fatmata Sannoh hello sis😍❤️
And the movie 'Amistad'. That's about the Mende tribe from Salone
I am from Sierra Leone and live in Arizona we r cuz
@@passionbeauty75 Hello my sis
I don't know why I get so emotional... congrats to both of you
Really enjoyed watching u guys smile from ear to ear and being proud of ur African roots🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
Alot of us are believe me
Wow Congratulations!!! Once I get back to Brooklyn,(from Ghana,where I reside now)I have to do African Ancestry!My mother is now the oldest member in our family and the last in her family among her brothers and sisters at,99 years old!!!
Wow, 99 years! You are gifted with great Gene's my brother, congratulations to your lovely mother and family.
My mother will be turning 81 in June , I keep reminding her that she is a "young un" and still got some work to do...lol
Bless her!
Thank you!
A beautiful 99 years young Queen. That's brilliant. I wish her good health, strength and a even longer life🖤🖤🖤
Get her oral history, it is gold.
NATIVE BORNE, my humble advice to you is ''If you have any future plans in mind BEFORE this Ancestry DNA results came in, DO NOT CHANGE that plan. I believe it is the spirit of your ancestors that have taken you guys this far. Still pursue your plans.
Dang yall im in tears! Congratulations!!! 🎆🎆🎆🎇🎇🎇🎉🎉🎉🎊🎈🎈
Congratulations!!! My results are Cameroon too! I am from Bamileke tribe. My wife is directly from Cameroon and her village is Bamunkumbit which is a subgroup of the Tikar! The 7 original Tikar kingdoms include the villages of Bankim, Boitikong, Ngambe Tikar, Bandam, Nditam, Ntem and I have to check on the number 7. Also Isaiah Washington is Mende. He is a Chief too.
I saw you in the naming ceremony that was beautiful
@@jaxsonpierre2363 Thank you my brother! I am so thankful to The Most High! 🙏
John welcome to Salone, Sierra Leone 🇸🇱. It is an english speaking country. Richest country in the world based on natural resources per person. Great for investment now, as it is now where Ghana was 15 year ago
Welcome's House....Mineral wealth value per person. Either way they are both countries in Africa and that should be seen as positive
Why am I in tears tho??! Beautiful family.. Just beautiful! I'll be traveling to Cameroon next year
I was seriously waiting for the test to read NIGERIA.........😂🤣That's okay though, I still LOOOOOVE you guys 😘❤. I found your channel this morning and I've watched almost 20 videos. So proud of you guys for taking that step of faith. May God continue to protect and guide you and your family. Love from Maryland 😍😘😘😘😍
you nigerians are everywhere, bet you find some in antartics
Niggatron 3000 yes we are everywhere like that
His face looks like someone from Ivory Coast. That is what I was initially thinking when I saw their first vlog
They've only done a partial test. Itll only tell them they're mother's side. Could be on the father's. I thought she'd be Nigerian. Looks it.
I just shed tears of happiness for you guys and tears of sadness for myself I’m a 29 yr old black man in Brooklyn NY with no lineage definitely feel like I need to embark on the journey of finding myself Congratulations and I hope everything she said raise you guys up in this life and the next go further don’t stop there find your families best wishes to all Asalamu Alaikum
Wow, I'm so happy for you guys! I was just as excited when I did my DNA Ancestory study with My Heritage. According to the study, I am 68.2% Nigerian, 13.8% Sierra Leone, 5 % Maasai, 4.3% West African and the other 8.6% was from Italy and Scandinavia. I was born in Jamaica, my parents and grandparents are Jamaicans.
Big ups my gyaal..ire
Omg 68% ? Amazing
@ochoriosify...Make sure you eat Jollof rice every Sunday in honour of your 'nigerianess'!
Maasai!!
@@ms.j970 Yes, that's what the report stated.

Great news for you guys!!! As much as we're happy with this results, the Native Borne Family are already Ghanaians and there's no going to Cameroon or Sierra Leone lol :-) I'm calling on all Ghanaians to ensure the safety and total integration into our society. Also, they're already entitled to their Ghanaian citizenship -- which is their right, being blacks.
lol
tulyricz 👍😄👌
Lol, aww, what a sweet post...
Lol all the diaspora love Ghana 🇬🇭
I guessed Cameroon! I'm Sierra Leonean. We call it Salone. Welcome 🤗 You should visit! It's absolutely beautiful and not far from Ghana.
This moves me in ways I didn’t expect! Much love to you both 🖤🖤🖤
Wow, this is so exciting! I am so excited for you guys and I wish you success in your family tree!

Awesome reveal and reaction! Lol and Beautiful! @ " I married a Mountain Lion" Go ahead Sis! #Gullah aka #MountainLions
Native Borne, YOU guys are Ghanaians: Your soul, body and spirit have already taken Ghanaian identity and there no way we will allow you to go. You can pay a visit to your respective countries but Ghana is always your home. Some pure Ghanaians have their roots from mende tribe (Sierra Leone), Old Ghana empire (modern Mali), The Gambia, Guinea and Guinea-Bissa.
NewBlacksGhana 👍👍😄
Lol
No way we are taking them here in Cameroon
Come home to Sierra Leone..the Athens of West Africa 🇸🇱
the empire of Ghana and present-day Ghana have nothing to do with it. it's different. The Ghana Empire comprised part of Mali and current auritania
Happy for you both! Very exciting!! We did our maternal side and we are the Balanta people of Guinea Bissau and Senegal!
This is so exciting!!! Congratulations my brother and sister, I am very happy for you. Five plus years ago I did my African ancestry on my father and mother side: Cameroon and Nigeria! Continued blessings to you and your family.
Am from Freetown in Sierra Leone, its English speaking country, welcome family.
Thought Sierra Leone was French speaking ??

I am so happy for you both. It has to be an amazing feeling to know your true heritage. Some day I will too. Thank you for sharing your journey and for the inspiration that your lives bring to my life. May there be many blessings on the way for your family.
Mande is actually a large tribe which do not speak the same language because they are in at least 3 or 4 countries,i know this because my father is Mande from Benin but according to history they migrated from Nigeria to northern benin(Djougou)..i am part Mande also...congrats to you both,as long as we are concern you guys are Ghanaians🇬🇭period

Awesome! I live in Georgia (USA) and will be visiting Ghana in 2019, "Year of the Return". After seeing your 'ancestry reveal', I'm even more hyped -- can't wait. I am looking into connecting with your travel company in the upcoming months when we start making firm plans.
Cool C Stop being so rude. Let people be happy.

Im planning a trip to Ghana for Year of Return as (yearofreturn.com. I will looking into DNA testing as well. Great idea.
I JUST placed my order can hardly wait!!! I will come back and share my results with y'all. Besides, you shared with us 🤷🏽♀️😃🖤.
Congratulations!!!! Sooo happy for you both and welcome to the African Ancestry Family :D. I tested with AA earlier this year and discovered I have Tikar MtDNA..so heyyyy Cousin Safiyyah, girl! lol.
I hope y'all will both join the African Ancestry Online Community. There is a WEALTH of knowledge on there. Tikar and Mende are some of the most often represented results, along with Temne, Balanta, Bubi, Yoruba, and Hausa. There are several others of course, but people with these ancestries are rolling deep and always sharing info when they find it.
From what I have learned so far from Tikar FB groups is that our ancestors resisted slavery and were not down with it AT ALL; so, they were targeted by other groups who staged war with them. I know the Mende resisted as well (i.e. Amistad). Love you both!!!
Not many people beyond the southern states here in the US (Carolins, Georgia) are aware of the Gullah Geechee people
Welcome to Sierra Leone bro !! Congrats to the both of you for discovering some of the missing links to your bonafide ancestory !! I'm sure I speak for many when I say that we're equally touched to connect across the many hundred of years to family who are now finding there way home !! Should you ever plan on visiting Sierra Leone ....feel free to reach out ... and i'll put you in touch with some good peoples who can help introduce you to your other home .... !! May you go on to discover the wonderful richness of your beautiful ancestry !!
Awesome video, keep up the great work
How exciting! Thanks so much for doing this research and sharing it with us. What a joyous treasure of cultural wealth you've unlocked for yourself and your family!
All the best!
I met the Tikar of Cameroon when I was there in April. Your cousins are dope!
Sierra Leone 🇸🇱 people are warriors. They have very conservative culture. I knew that Sofya’s ancestors were from central Africa because her face looks like my big sister’s
I am not afraid any more,I’m going to take the test for myself and peace of mind,thank you for sharing 👍🏿❤️💯
Congratulations! I'm getting this done. I am so happy for you both!
I love the energy between y’all! My maternal ancestry, per African Ancestry, is Temne People who live in Sierra Leone. I am South Carolina born and three of my four direct ancestors were from the Low Country of SC. Gullah People. Awesome video! Y’all are beautiful.
Gwendolyn Simmins yess a lot of Gullah people are descendants of slaves from Sierra Leone ❤️
This is so dope. I’ve always been skeptical of these tests but watching your video has changed my mind. BTW my mom is from James Island South Carolina. Her family is definitely Geechie/Gullah. We traced our family history back to 1800’s and have a beautiful tree with descendants names. My grandfather was a farmer where he grew rice and other fruits and vegetables. We are fisherman and seafood is a big part of our diet. (At least for my family. Okra and conch/crab soup, black eye peas, cassava) Everything she said was spot on. We are also known for weaving beautiful baskets. There is a wonderful Gullah storyteller you must go hear.
Catherine Malone you are from sierraleone ,that our food(rice beans and cassava)look no further you are from sierraleone
@Catherine Malone Do you remember the movie "Daughters of the Dust" from the 90s about the Gullahs, OMG that movie was Epic! Re the DNA skepticism, I totally get it but it is very real, I did 2 with African Ancestry dot com and 1 with Ancestry dot com and there is noooo way that they could know I am related to the matches on my list - some of the cousins who I actually know because we grew up in the NY/NJ area together (sharing g. grandparents) I did not even know they had taken the test too but they showed up on my list of close matches. The case was solidified even more only 2 days ago when talking to an older cousin on the phone reminiscing, I casually asked her daughter's last name who I've never met- when she said the last name, it sounded so familiar. I checked my list of matches that is at least 5 years old and sure enough there she was listed as 3-4th cousin. So yeah, it's a real science, the DNA never lies!
Amara Dumbuya that’s amazing to know. My family has talked about whether we may have descended from Ghana or Sierra Leone. My grandfather also grew rice because the plantation he grew up on was in marshes.
Loralicious I don’t remember that movie “Daughters of the Dust” but I’ll definitely stream a copy
I've been wanting to do this for a long time. I had no idea there was a specific one for Africa. I will be sure to try it!
I have been binge watching you guy's channel since I woke up. Your journey is inspiring and your ancestry results brought me to tears like they were my own. Thanks for this great feeling you guys are giving me. Blessings to your family.
