It's obvious you are Black and ashamed of this fact which is why you are obsessed with passing for white. You are beautiful. So sad you can't accept who you are.
She literally was told she was Italian American all her life. She just found out she was mixed with Black relatively recently after DNA tests. You can’t blame her for what she didn’t know. Plus, being part Black doesn’t make you actually Black. Most Latinos are part Black but they don’t look it or say they are.

Ma’am, I truly enjoy watching your content regarding DNA, human biological heritage, Identity, along with your personal journey through it all with your family. It's your tone that conveys to me your deep feelings toward famial connection. As for any detractors and their ignorant & anxiety nay saying Babel are quite in consequenitial to biology (it simply does not care what ones social definition of self is! It simply IS what it is) and its function. Human fear what they don't understand, discredit what doesn't affirmative their assumptions & interpretation of reality. Screw them. I am a foundational multi-generational American of African, Europe, Indigenous and Native Ancestry. And I am proud of each and every one of the 46 Chromosome that comprise who I physically am! I wish everyone the same joy✨✨
Remember this, Mrs Romero: She's following you, its not the other way around! They are following you, it's not the opposite! Perspective is everything! 💪
Thank you. I’m so tired of that. The only reason South America and Caribbean are called Latin America is because it’s a geographical area named so by the French.
@@Rebecca-gc9gwnot so. Latin bc of the language derivative from the Romance language. From the Latin came out: Portuguese, ITALIAN, Romanian, French h, and Castilian aka modern Spanish. Latin name came from the similar language, NOT A RACE.
Well said, NYTN! You're doing a very good job of explaining things and I love your neutrality and composure when dealing with mentally challenged. Keep up the good work!
Colorism is rampant in Latin families. It’s not uncommon for a single family to have both darker and lighter people in them. In many of these situations the lighter person is favored by the family, this is especially true of the older generation. It’s sad this type of thinking still exists but it does.
@@leotajackson5602 Latin families? Which ones? The original Latins, that is The Portuguese, French, Spaniards or Italians? You can also include the Romanians since their language is also a Latin base language. Or maybe you're talking about the Latin Americans?
This happened in my family 😔 my brother's with lighter skin color, got those "White Privileged!" I was always 2nd fiddle, because I have black wavy hair and olive Complexion. Yes the girls like it, but it doesn't help you looking for employment or promotions, in Mormon Utah.

Please do listen a serious warning from the past: in Nazi Germany, in thirties&fourties children in schools were taught discriminatory hierarchy based on racial pseudo-science. They had to measure skulls, analise colours of eyes and hair. Fictional "Aryan German ideal apearance" was on top of hierarchy. According to grim ideology, Slavonic people should be mostly murdered. The reduced number should be left to serve as slaves to German overlords. Average Germans were told that Jews and Gypsies as a pests should be isolated and deported to the East, in reality - a decision was made about their final doom. Milions were dehumanised, exploited and murdered. In occupied Poland in Zamosc region whole villages were exterminated. Only Polish children who resembled "suprematory Arian features" were left alive, stolen and adopted by German families. So, as you see, ridiculous quarrels about percentage in DNA are not funny, they are dangerous. Especially, when the ruthless sociopath is in power and hires people similar to him. The most insane and cruel ideas tomorrow will be your reality. They are implemented steadily, just to make the society get used to "new normal" and ignore the red flags. Do you realise, that in Nazi Germany people mentaly ill, disabled, LGBTQ were isolated and murdered?!!! So Trump and Musk are part of old reviving evil, which starts kicking now in many democratic countries. Putin's Russia is nowadays more and more Nazi country and secretly supports such parties and politicians inside democratic world to divide and destroy us. So be watchful and solidary, fight!!! The 11th commandment: Don't let yourself to be indifferent!!!
@1pyroace1 no we hear and see it loud and clear you simply have no empathy for true natives, and why would the average simple man, everyone outside of us and your govt moved us all out or worse and you know exactly what
Do not forget, y'all, that although we may have ancestors of a certain ethnic group, we may not have inherited DNA from them since DNA is like "pulling blindly from a hat", so to speak. You don't get every ancestor's DNA!
Haplogroups show who people come from as well, and it tracks the moms, moms, moms all the way back or the dads, dads, dads, all the way back. The autosomal is the DNA that she is speaking of and that is more like the leaves on a tree.
@@bluetinsel7099 autosomal is a crapshoot. You still do not get DNA from all anscestors. Therefore, a test to see where people need to be sent back to would not work. Bigots like that lady suggesting testing to see where people should be sent "back" to is just trolling and should be ignored for what they are.
Danielle, I’m black-American (raised as such within the American context and I look ethnically unambiguous but maybe a little mixed) ; I’m 1/4 white due to several generations being from black folks who mixed with early colonial white ethnic groups) and I think you have THEE most reasonable responses to the ridiculous people who are living with a lot of hate in their heart and you take their craziness with such stride. We are human and absolutely are all from the same family at the end of the day. I hope your and your quintessentially American family are well. Where can we donate and keep your channel going?
There is no such thing as a white or black ethnic group so please stop confusing sociopolitical constructs as scientific or anthropological in nature. I’m forum the southeast woodlands of mainland America and even I know that you cannot mix sociology with biology and yes I know my consanguinity. There are too many people trying to either reconstruct a his story that doesn’t exist to fit a narrative or take someone’s identity that doesn’t belong in ancestral documentation. Know YOUR family which is your house because not all houses carry mansions and castles.
Real copper native here, (so we're both supposed to be melanated), american "blacks" copy white folks they've been forced to be around and have burrowed their way into your line and colonize claim us too with no receipts no truth and no work put in. Be real or keep supporting what's supposed to be known to you as your oppressors but the land and race is ours, ALWAYS.
The real irony is this lady in operating in the European derived view of racial identity. Almost all native groups operated on tribal identity. Tribal membership was not defined by DNA but by community. A person of totally different descent could be adopted into full membership.
The nations go by the mom and the tribes go by the dad and BQ levels went by ancestors before which would come to percentages in DNA also known as autosomal DNA, but genealogy should line up with DNA.
Don't tell natives what we do and what it is thank you. Bc of that Lil good will rule we had the colonist smiled and said "bet" wickedly and now we have blonde blue tribes w all the money while all natives are casted as casino rich and we're NOT
We've grown up and realize the world is not worthy of certain rules. We're taking it back, no more slip in for you unless colonist powers help you! Know who you are!
I admonish you to not let that woman's comments get to you. She is clearly not well. Your comments are inciteful and informative. Keep up the good work!

@@dagnolia6004 I need to go back and watch this presentation. It also looks like there is some of our dna that they can’t decode or decipher so yes we may not be getting the whole truth.
The thing that I really hate is we( black Americans )always get shit on. She says we can leave too….bro we didn’t have any say in being brought here and most of us have no idea where we would even go back to in Africa. Shit is tiring
A lot of American black people are the ancient Aryans. Not all those Aryans were white looking people. Aryans went all over the world so they can't tell them to go any particular place because they from all over. Nazis were silly enough to claim they are Aryans, so they are saying they are the children of people of color. Yet they want to get rid of them. It makes no sense. Black people need to stop calling themselves black and start calling themselves Aryans. That is more accurate.
The ironic thing about what you just said is that you as a black American, are virtually guaranteed to have more "blood in the soil" of the United States than most modern white Americans, given that a significantly large portion of modern white Americans have no ties to land before the 1890-1920 migration period. You are more American than anyone can fathom.
I agree. 💯! We get dragged for anything. That so-called Latin did not need to include black Americans. We did not make the laws of this land. Did that fool understand we came here in enslaved? What about Asians, Indians from India, etc. and all the other people? Do they get shipped off, too? She was ignorant and sounded racist. Latin? 😅 Another uneducated idiot wanting attention.

Hi Danielle! This post is so spot on. I totally understand this person's *sentiment* and the painful history it exemplifies. Your assessment is so accurate to describe our powerlessness to unring the bell of history and that our only realistic and altruistic alternative is to learn how to respect and connect our various backgrounds to forge a better future for as many as possible. Maybe that was the purpose all along? I refuse to surrender my believe that at our core, underneath all the fear and pain, we all want a better world. The sad truth is the road to that reality is so messy sometimes and forgiveness doesn’t come easily. Keep the Faith, Danielle! 👍🏼🙏💜😍
The way you handle these triggered trolls with facts and graceful composure is chef's kiss. Some of us appreciate your knowledge. These people act worst than children when they're challenged and uncomfortable.
You gotta love the DNA gatekeepers lol. I had a Lakota guy back in the early '90s call me "an apple", meaning "red on the outside, white on the inside." Some people are just jerks, and use blood quantum to disparage others. Really shameful behavior.
Said the colonizer. I think the real jerks are any of you on my land after what history and you all have done to us but no you want to set up cherry pick tribes (from the same govt that annihilated us? Would you let the nazi tell you who is isrealite or jew?) and eat them holed like moths
Hi Danielle, another great video! I have a question...do you know if it was common in the early 1900s for babies/toddler from Africa to be sent to the UK/US for adoption? My grandmother was allegedly born in west Africa, went to England as a baby/toddler and was then sent by her parents (or maybe an adoption agency?) to live with a black married couple in Pennsylvania in the 1920s (who then subsequently adopted my grandmother). This is the story my family has always been told. I'm building out my family tree, and would like to find some records of my grandmother's time in the UK or move to the US but haven't been able to find anything so far. Its like she just showed up in the US one day and no one really knows who her real parents were or anything.
The internet is going to internet. It must be exhausting to see comments from total strangers telling you who and what you are but social media loves conflict.
You’re doing a great job sister keep doing what you’re doing and I will continue to pray for you and your family. All the great work that you are doing.
My DNA says Europe. I am a foreigner, even if I was born in the United States. This is not my land, and I damn well know it. My people should have some humility.
There are Indians, such as the Pequots, of whom, many were enslaved and sent to islands, such as Bermuda. If the government of Bermuda DNA tested the Pequot community and found that they were not pure European, and thus decided to deport them, it would be just as wrong..
Just proves to you southern natives and northern are all the same, but are treated VERY differently, they deported natives of the north to the south and you know this and this isn't your main point here?
That is a crazy concept when the tools used to confirm dna are still suspect at best, plus that's unnecessary. Let's just go off citenship, birthright, etc . People tend to throw boomerangs, not realizing that the same talking point can spin around and knock you upside your head . In that lady's case, hers ain't hit her just yet 😂.
Very nice to hear you use the marble analogy. I've been using that for years to make sense of DNA test results. For example; why do I show some Native ancestry on my test but my mother, who I got that ancestry from, doesn't. Thanks for your videos.
Following the logic of your critic -- ONLY Native Americans would remain here. They are the indigenous people of this country. All people with European DNA would go back to Europe, etc., etc., etc.
Which test would even be the ONE to tell the "truth". I have looked at my results from same raw data uploaded to a few different providers and each test was completely DIFFERENT. Faulty to a dreadful sin is what happened when you try to chop up the human being. Keep that Melungeon smile smiling girly!
Of course it's going to change? The more people partake, the more the ranges widen and precision gets more acute. Not many performers in Science and Statistics classes I see here?
Given the current political climate. I can see the point of posting something like that but only if it's directed at those who support the ideal of mass deportation. I haven't seen you state your thoughts on that one way or the other so I would think their time would have been better served commenting on some video who does state they support mass deportation.
@chillinwithmartin how many people can you put in a life boat before it sinks? Who gets to decide on who gets in the Boat? The owner of the boat or the occupants .
What that woman said is weird because if she got her DNA testing done, by her own logic, her nearest country might be Spain or Portugal or even a random country in western Africa, not the Americas. Some Latinos have more indigenous ancestry, but others will have more African or European ancestry. We don’t even inherit traits from all of our ancestors anyway!
Wouldn't you like that? Native splaining keep it coming! The historical pre-chopping down of our numbers these last centuries helps you doesn't it, so know who you are!
She has more indigenous (especially compared to you all and the pretendians or 10%ers included. As a copper native myself, COSIGNED. Trying to say shes European or african is laughable her phenotype chose US. You hold wishful thinking only non natives here would hold, it shows wickedness inside somewhere
She's having some serious buyer's remorse over her and her pals voting for Trump. Biracial/mixed people voted overwhelmingly for Kamala and against mass deportation.
Illegal immigrants occupy labor positions that middle and lower class families need to put food on the table. They're not coming here becoming doctors, lawyers, and politicians. American citizens with lacking financial means are the people who are hurt by the overwhelming influx of illegal immigration. I doubt poor people are going to be upset about all the ensuing job openings.
Tribal politics are a bit beyond me, but from a legal perspective there have been examples of blood quantum and member recognition being weaponized for political purposes and financial gain. Other tribes are struggling with the fallout of existing blood quantum requirements precisely because it threatens their continued existence. These are sensitive topics, so I'm not going to share stories because I don't want to harm relationships by giving examples. But I agree with you whole-heartedly that Tribes have inherited this problem from a system that was designed to harm them. I am sure that most understand this and are trying to find their way forward as communities. As you note it is not clear that this person was a tribal member. Perhaps they are just a recent migrant who is fearful of being deported and are lashing out. Sorry that you got caught in her crossfire.
Very interested in your videos, have seen a lot of them. I am a “Redbone” and was wondering if you had ever looked into the eastern Vernon, western Rapides parish area? Ten Mile region? From what I’ve studied so far they seem to be the Lakota of the Redbones. Would like hear your opinion on the area.
I don't know why you bothered to respond to her. What does American by blood mean. My DNA results show 13, yes 13 different countries. Where should I go? Ignore these people.
Thanks, again for a great video! I heard a historian recently make a compelling argument about what really unites humans around the globe. He didn't think religion has done a particularly good job for the most part, especially religions in the West as their "God" seems to be telling each group different things--although a newer envisioning of compassionate "religions" could help. He is not very hopeful about ideology, other than people should be able to have a say over their own lives, so some kind of democracy is likely best, but how that is implemented may vary. No, he believes that recognizing that we are all human, as carbon-based (advanced) mammals who are the dominate species on this planet because of our unique ability to cooperate across vast distances and cultures to accomplish tasks. One of the most glaring examples of that is the worldwide financial system. Nobody is burning piles of money saying it doesn't matter. Consequently, we may need to create helpful narratives to accomplish this goal, but it is a better challenge than some of the narratives we have inherited.
Oh so she's a fancy lady very nice breakdown,i was sure when i took my dna test I could choose a tribe or a people but i found i am related to 3 more groups of people i wasn't aware of the human genome is indeed massive.
I am a Mayflower descendant and 100 percent European. I used to work for non profits and got sick and tired of hearing this crap. You can't win with these people no matter what you say or do. I moved to Europe many years ago and live in peace now.

Divergence and speciation is a fundamental directive for all life to adapt ,in an ever changing environment. A pure bred is a temporary stage in this cycle.

Wow! Pretty lively response for a just posted vid😅 Excellent video, as usual👍 Your marble analogy to explain the limitations in testing for ethnicity is the best I’ve heard yet. I can easily see this in my own family. I’m the only boy and have three sisters. I look like an Aryan poster child, along with my oldest sister, but my other two sisters look very Spanish or Native American due to our Romero ancestry in SW Louisiana. As for the vid that prompted this response video, it is just an example of the weirdness that results when one looks at history only through a current political/sensibilities/social/victimhood mindset lens. The truth gets buried under the BS and nothing good comes from it. Making modern claims to land because of ancient ancestry isn’t much better because DNA doesn’t prove we are entitled to this or that. It proves that we are all family. Nothing good comes from being proud of a skin color. Any pride in ancestry should be reserved for our ancestors alone, no matter what they looked like. Because of what they had to endure and overcome, it’s a miracle any of us are here now. Gettin back to ridiculous ancestral land claims…Wooly Mammoths were here long before any humans were, do we give back the land to them? After we clone them back into existence😅 My favorite historical quote of all time comes from when the last Muslim ruler of Spain, Muhammad XII was crossing the Gibraltar Strait on a boat after having been kicked out of Spain. He was shedding a few tears prompting his mother to reply, “It is fitting that you weep like a woman for a land you could not hold as a man.” Lands lost, lands gained, it’s just family squabbles, nothing more.
Most Native American Tribes don’t use DNA as the qualification for membership. So what country do I go to if I am being deported? 1/2 to Ireland, a 1/4 to the UK, 1/4 to Eastern Prussia (ethnically mixed between Salzburger Exulanten, Baltic Prussian, Lithuanian, and Polish). I might be 2% Native American according to some DNA tests, so do I leave my big toe in North America? Oh yeah my son is 1/2 Ashkenazi Jewish, so that adds more diversity. My wife is Latina, and born in Argentina, but 100% European (Italian and Spanish), and her son is mixed ethnicity Brazilian.
The nations go by the mom and the tribes by the dad, so haplogroups would be able to tell what lines you come from or where your ancestral lands may be. They trace the moms, moms, moms, lines all the way back or the dads, dads, dads, lines all the way back.
Learning from and preserving heritage is great. But we, on this rock, need to love one another instead of walling off in isolated groups. In the words from my favorite artist #Live4Love #Love4OneAnother.
We're not Indians and we're not Native Americans. We're older than both concepts. We're the people, we're the human beings. John trudell 1946-2015 spoken word artist and former AIM member
What you say is true...my tribal language word "newe" translates to "the people" which is what identified my tribe prior to the invasion of european colonialists. A neighboring tribe's language called themselves "numu" meaning " the people" in their language.
I understand that it's complicated? I'm a Southeast Texas Ashworth descendant...still living here...or at least that is what my family tree says....and my great grandmother's headstone has on it. I'm a Texas Mutt! Redbone.
The logic is illogical. What time period do you consider for borders? The entire SW US was once part of Mexico. I've seen this on my family tree as borders shifted a family member could be from a particular city but that city can change countries throughout the years as borders shift. Also these borders are actually invisible man-made lines on a map, they're not real. They're meant to divide not to unite.
Country borders came about with colonisation, the entire continent with its subcontinents and Greenland which is part of the American continent was for a specific lineage along with part of AfroEurAsia. Other lineages were in the heirs lands.
@bluetinsel7099 even prior to being settled by Europeans they had their own borders, which changed through time. They came here with these ideas. To keep the "others" out because of whatever the perceived differences were.
What I have learned is that the majority of those with Latino ancestry have high rates of indigenous DNA. But that’s not how DNA works as you mentioned.
As far as I know, membership in any cultural community has more to do with lived identity and experience within that community, participation, and belonging, then it has to do with DNA. There are some cultural communities where language is also an important aspect of this membership. So many Americans think of cultural belonging in terms of DNA and genetics and this is probably directly linked to the old racist views that used to dominate American society. I have seen Black Americans shout down people from Egypt, claiming they aren't real Egyptians because only Black people are. I have also seen Scottish Americans tell someone from Scotland that they can't really be Scottish because one of their parents is African. So I am not surprised that there would be Latino people who'd claim to be native or indigenous because they assume their DNA grants them membership in some indigenous cultural community - it doesn't. In a more traditional sense, cultural identity is NOT an individual's possession. It's not something one claims, like an old style colonizer claims a piece of land. It's a collectively owned thing that you participate with others in.
Don't worry sweetie. I'm more than a quarter native american (my Latina side, mother is more than 60%) and have been told "go back" since I was little. Unfortunately, native americans (Navajos that are AMERICAN citizens) are getting targeted by the ICE raids too. My cousin is terrified, even though she is a born US citizen because of her indigenous looks, with border patrols here in VA.
Also DNA percentages are based on confidence intervals. Me, 41% melanated North Italian here, zero Native American but related to Chavis of Lumbees. Go figure!
all these groups getting their wake up call don't try pull FBA into this we not getting on frontlines for these other groups as yall said there is no racism blame the culture
Funny is at the end of her comment.She's talking and mentioning black.Americans when black Americans actually have native ancestry to native tribes.Actually here in america. Even some white Americans do. So whose land is it? Lol
As most Latin Americans, in fact, almost all of them, their native ancestry is to land outside of America.People need to get this right.Just because you have native ancestry doesn't mean you can claim all of the americas.
Melanated so still very copper native american here long as she's not posing (and she looks more like us than you) she's right sorry yall don't like it
I'm 82% white (mostly English, Scandinavian) and 18% black (mostly NIgerian). I think if I need to leave the country I'll resettle in Rio de Janeiro or Sao Paulo, Brazil. I understand many folks there have a similar composition, with some mixed people even being part Germanic like here in the US.
Ugh blacks in America are being lied to. They are descendants of the Olmecs, mother-culture of Mesoamerica. The DNA test are lying. It’s a massive cover-up.
Not if you think of "America" as the full continent. So, according to this request, you have to spend 5 month in London, 5 in Stockholm and 2 in Lagos....
I do not have the patience to respond to nutty people. The internet is just a wonderland of Coucous living in an alternative reality. LOL. You're better than me.
She has the skinniest face and is not melanated or shows any features at all, and a real native is nutty? We are not adornments for you to flaunt to be a more exotic white person once enough invader seed has flushed the inconvenient parts of us out sorry, 10% does NOT equal 100% no matter how much your disdain for other cultures so much that a drop is the same as a cup to you
A Latina telling an Italian lady to get off her land because she's not "native"...You can't make this stuff up, especially since Columbus was an Italian being bankrolled by the Spanish crown. Also it wasn't called Latin America because the Spanish colonists were assimilating into local indigenous cultures. If anything she's the colonizer, and needs to be the first one to go according to her.
Danielle, I want to thank your content! This persons claims are ridiculous, if I sell or give up my house (legally) I can’t come back and claim it unless I purchase it back for myself. I understand the claim they believe they were the only ones here before the Europeans arrived (which is false). Historically, the USA paid Mexico for the land and allowed the Mexicans to become citizens of the US.
Wow I have heard it all thank you for sharing about that Latina woman saying that we have to go back to our native countries what if you have to pick between 50% of one country or 50% of the other stupid ridiculous how ignorant can someone be OMG thank you for sharing again showing us how much stupidity people can actually have

Just because you have native ancestry doesn't mean you can claim all of the americas. If your indigenous ancestry is in peru that doesnt mean u can claim nativeness in the US
And you sound like a idiot . Native ancestry does not mean you can claim all of America's.The native tribes here weren't just one giant tribe.There were multiple and dozens , if not hundreds , many of them having different phenotypes , even different genetically. Instead of speaking out of your ass do some damn research and stop thinking that native and indigenous people of america was just one giant red indian because they weren't and it would be very stupid and simpleton of you to think so
It's obvious you are Black and ashamed of this fact which is why you are obsessed with passing for white. You are beautiful. So sad you can't accept who you are.
I’m going to pin this. 🧐
She literally was told she was Italian American all her life. She just found out she was mixed with Black relatively recently after DNA tests. You can’t blame her for what she didn’t know. Plus, being part Black doesn’t make you actually Black. Most Latinos are part Black but they don’t look it or say they are.
Can you define "being black"
carolmosher7745:. If she was obsessed with passing for white she would not have "outed" herself by broadcasting that she is part black.

Colorism is rampant in Latin families. It’s not uncommon for a single family to have both darker and lighter people in them. In many of these situations the lighter person is favored by the family, this is especially true of the older generation. It’s sad this type of thinking still exists but it does.
Unfortunately it's the same way in African American families 😢
@@leotajackson5602 Latin families? Which ones? The original Latins, that is The Portuguese, French, Spaniards or Italians? You can also include the Romanians since their language is also a Latin base language. Or maybe you're talking about the Latin Americans?

You must not be Native American because that's a very colonizing attitude to have towards people who had their land taken
It makes America a cesspool of envy,greed,hate and full fleged EUROPEAN grown racism. The topography of the land is magnificent 👌
Please do listen a serious warning from the past: in Nazi Germany, in thirties&fourties children in schools were taught discriminatory hierarchy based on racial pseudo-science. They had to measure skulls, analise colours of eyes and hair. Fictional "Aryan German ideal apearance" was on top of hierarchy. According to grim ideology, Slavonic people should be mostly murdered. The reduced number should be left to serve as slaves to German overlords. Average Germans were told that Jews and Gypsies as a pests should be isolated and deported to the East, in reality - a decision was made about their final doom. Milions were dehumanised, exploited and murdered. In occupied Poland in Zamosc region whole villages were exterminated. Only Polish children who resembled "suprematory Arian features" were left alive, stolen and adopted by German families.
So, as you see, ridiculous quarrels about percentage in DNA are not funny, they are dangerous. Especially, when the ruthless sociopath is in power and hires people similar to him. The most insane and cruel ideas tomorrow will be your reality. They are implemented steadily, just to make the society get used to "new normal" and ignore the red flags. Do you realise, that in Nazi Germany people mentaly ill, disabled, LGBTQ were isolated and murdered?!!!
So Trump and Musk are part of old reviving evil, which starts kicking now in many democratic countries. Putin's Russia is nowadays more and more Nazi country and secretly supports such parties and politicians inside democratic world to divide and destroy us. So be watchful and solidary, fight!!!

Thank you! I appreciate you watching!
Do not forget, y'all, that although we may have ancestors of a certain ethnic group, we may not have inherited DNA from them since DNA is like "pulling blindly from a hat", so to speak. You don't get every ancestor's DNA!
Haplogroups show who people come from as well, and it tracks the moms, moms, moms all the way back or the dads, dads, dads, all the way back. The autosomal is the DNA that she is speaking of and that is more like the leaves on a tree.
@@bluetinsel7099 autosomal is a crapshoot. You still do not get DNA from all anscestors. Therefore, a test to see where people need to be sent back to would not work. Bigots like that lady suggesting testing to see where people should be sent "back" to is just trolling and should be ignored for what they are.
Danielle, I’m black-American (raised as such within the American context and I look ethnically unambiguous but maybe a little mixed)
; I’m 1/4 white due to several generations being from black folks who mixed with early colonial white ethnic groups) and I think you have THEE most reasonable responses to the ridiculous people who are living with a lot of hate in their heart and you take their craziness with such stride. We are human and absolutely are all from the same family at the end of the day. I hope your and your quintessentially American family are well. Where can we donate and keep your channel going?
There is no such thing as a white or black ethnic group so please stop confusing sociopolitical constructs as scientific or anthropological in nature. I’m forum the southeast woodlands of mainland America and even I know that you cannot mix sociology with biology and yes I know my consanguinity. There are too many people trying to either reconstruct a his story that doesn’t exist to fit a narrative or take someone’s identity that doesn’t belong in ancestral documentation. Know YOUR family which is your house because not all houses carry mansions and castles.
Look in the notes under the title of the video. She usually posts where you can donate.
@iceman31641 So you give that excoriation schpiel to one of the most reasonable and gracious comments to this video❓ You have some issues guy.
Real copper native here, (so we're both supposed to be melanated), american "blacks" copy white folks they've been forced to be around and have burrowed their way into your line and colonize claim us too with no receipts no truth and no work put in. Be real or keep supporting what's supposed to be known to you as your oppressors but the land and race is ours, ALWAYS.
The real irony is this lady in operating in the European derived view of racial identity. Almost all native groups operated on tribal identity. Tribal membership was not defined by DNA but by community. A person of totally different descent could be adopted into full membership.
The nations go by the mom and the tribes go by the dad and BQ levels went by ancestors before which would come to percentages in DNA also known as autosomal DNA, but genealogy should line up with DNA.
@@bluetinsel7099depends on the tribe

The thing that I really hate is we( black Americans )always get shit on. She says we can leave too….bro we didn’t have any say in being brought here and most of us have no idea where we would even go back to in Africa. Shit is tiring
I found out threw DNA i'd go back to Egypt,Nigeria and the Congo.
A lot of American black people are the ancient Aryans. Not all those Aryans were white looking people. Aryans went all over the world so they can't tell them to go any particular place because they from all over.
Nazis were silly enough to claim they are Aryans, so they are saying they are the children of people of color. Yet they want to get rid of them. It makes no sense.
Black people need to stop calling themselves black and start calling themselves Aryans. That is more accurate.
The ironic thing about what you just said is that you as a black American, are virtually guaranteed to have more "blood in the soil" of the United States than most modern white Americans, given that a significantly large portion of modern white Americans have no ties to land before the 1890-1920 migration period. You are more American than anyone can fathom.
I agree. 💯! We get dragged for anything. That so-called Latin did not need to include black Americans. We did not make the laws of this land. Did that fool understand we came here in enslaved?

Hi Danielle! This post is so spot on. I totally understand this person's *sentiment* and the painful history it exemplifies.
Your assessment is so accurate to describe our powerlessness to unring the bell of history and that our only realistic and altruistic alternative is to learn how to respect and connect our various backgrounds to forge a better future for as many as possible. Maybe that was the purpose all along?
I refuse to surrender my believe that at our core, underneath all the fear and pain, we all want a better world. The sad truth is the road to that reality is so messy sometimes and forgiveness doesn’t come easily.

Hi Danielle, another great video! I have a question...do you know if it was common in the early 1900s for babies/toddler from Africa to be sent to the UK/US for adoption? My grandmother was allegedly born in west Africa, went to England as a baby/toddler and was then sent by her parents (or maybe an adoption agency?) to live with a black married couple in Pennsylvania in the 1920s (who then subsequently adopted my grandmother).
This is the story my family has always been told. I'm building out my family tree, and would like to find some records of my grandmother's time in the UK or move to the US but haven't been able to find anything so far. Its like she just showed up in the US one day and no one really knows who her real parents were or anything.

There are Indians, such as the Pequots, of whom, many were enslaved and sent to islands, such as Bermuda. If the government of Bermuda DNA tested the Pequot community and found that they were not pure European, and thus decided to deport them, it would be just as wrong..
Bruh wut

Just proves to you southern natives and northern are all the same, but are treated VERY differently, they deported natives of the north to the south and you know this and this isn't your main point here?

I agree with you Danielle, thank you for explaining.❤
That is a crazy concept when the tools used to confirm dna are still suspect at best, plus that's unnecessary. Let's just go off citenship, birthright, etc .

Very nice to hear you use the marble analogy. I've been using that for years to make sense of DNA test results. For example; why do I show some Native ancestry on my test but my mother, who I got that ancestry from, doesn't. Thanks for your videos.
Following the logic of your critic -- ONLY Native Americans would remain here. They are the indigenous people of this country. All people with European DNA would go back to Europe, etc., etc., etc.
That’s minuscule. Yes a small group of people definitely managed to mix up the majority in the Americas. Logically impossible.
No, there were also black indigenous as well and it's well documented. Foundational Black Americans would also.
Which test would even be the ONE to tell the "truth". I have looked at my results from same raw data uploaded to a few different providers and each test was completely DIFFERENT. Faulty to a dreadful sin is what happened when you try to chop up the human being. Keep that Melungeon smile smiling girly!

What that woman said is weird because if she got her DNA testing done, by her own logic, her nearest country might be Spain or Portugal or even a random country in western Africa, not the Americas.
Some Latinos have more indigenous ancestry, but others will have more African or European ancestry. We don’t even inherit traits from all of our ancestors anyway!

Great conversation!
Tribal politics are a bit beyond me, but from a legal perspective there have been examples of blood quantum and member recognition being weaponized for political purposes and financial gain. Other tribes are struggling with the fallout of existing blood quantum requirements precisely because it threatens their continued existence. These are sensitive topics, so I'm not going to share stories because I don't want to harm relationships by giving examples. But I agree with you whole-heartedly that Tribes have inherited this problem from a system that was designed to harm them. I am sure that most understand this and are trying to find their way forward as communities. As you note it is not clear that this person was a tribal member. Perhaps they are just a recent migrant who is fearful of being deported and are lashing out. Sorry that you got caught in her crossfire.
Very interested in your videos, have seen a lot of them. I am a “Redbone” and was wondering if you had ever looked into the eastern Vernon, western Rapides parish area? Ten Mile region? From what I’ve studied so far they seem to be the Lakota of the Redbones. Would like hear your opinion on the area.
I don't know why you bothered to respond to her. What does American by blood mean. My DNA results show 13, yes 13 different countries. Where should I go?
Ignore these people.
Thanks, again for a great video! I heard a historian recently make a compelling argument about what really unites humans around the globe. He didn't think religion has done a particularly good job for the most part, especially religions in the West as their "God" seems to be telling each group different things--although a newer envisioning of compassionate "religions" could help. He is not very hopeful about ideology, other than people should be able to have a say over their own lives, so some kind of democracy is likely best, but how that is implemented may vary. No, he believes that recognizing that we are all human, as carbon-based (advanced) mammals who are the dominate species on this planet because of our unique ability to cooperate across vast distances and cultures to accomplish tasks. One of the most glaring examples of that is the worldwide financial system. Nobody is burning piles of money saying it doesn't matter. Consequently, we may need to create helpful narratives to accomplish this goal, but it is a better challenge than some of the narratives we have inherited.
Oh so she's a fancy lady very nice breakdown,i was sure when i took my dna test I could choose a tribe or a people but i found i am related to 3 more groups of people i wasn't aware of the human genome is indeed massive.

Excellent video, as usual👍 Your marble analogy to explain the limitations in testing for ethnicity is the best I’ve heard yet. I can easily see this in my own family. I’m the only boy and have three sisters. I look like an Aryan poster child, along with my oldest sister, but my other two sisters look very Spanish or Native American due to our Romero ancestry in SW Louisiana.
As for the vid that prompted this response video, it is just an example of the weirdness that results when one looks at history only through a current political/sensibilities/social/victimhood mindset lens. The truth gets buried under the BS and nothing good comes from it.
Making modern claims to land because of ancient ancestry isn’t much better because DNA doesn’t prove we are entitled to this or that. It proves that we are all family. Nothing good comes from being proud of a skin color. Any pride in ancestry should be reserved for our ancestors alone, no matter what they looked like. Because of what they had to endure and overcome, it’s a miracle any of us are here now.
Gettin back to ridiculous ancestral land claims…Wooly Mammoths were here long before any humans were, do we give back the land to them? After we clone them back into existence😅
My favorite historical quote of all time comes from when the last Muslim ruler of Spain, Muhammad XII was crossing the Gibraltar Strait on a boat after having been kicked out of Spain.

Lands lost, lands gained, it’s just family squabbles, nothing more.
@@AnthonyMyers-o5q Euro Americans have a short memory
Most Native American Tribes don’t use DNA as the qualification for membership. So what country do I go to if I am being deported? 1/2 to Ireland, a 1/4 to the UK, 1/4 to Eastern Prussia (ethnically mixed between Salzburger Exulanten, Baltic Prussian, Lithuanian, and Polish). I might be 2% Native American according to some DNA tests, so do I leave my big toe in North America? Oh yeah my son is 1/2 Ashkenazi Jewish, so that adds more diversity. My wife is Latina, and born in Argentina, but 100% European (Italian and Spanish), and her son is mixed ethnicity Brazilian.
I have Indigenous DNA more than many with a recognised USA census tribe (a great grandmother) yet not enrolled.
The nations go by the mom and the tribes by the dad, so haplogroups would be able to tell what lines you come from or where your ancestral lands may be. They trace the moms, moms, moms, lines all the way back or the dads, dads, dads, lines all the way back.

I understand that it's complicated? I'm a Southeast Texas Ashworth descendant...still living here...or at least that is what my family tree says....and my great grandmother's headstone has on it. I'm a Texas Mutt! Redbone.
The logic is illogical. What time period do you consider for borders? The entire SW US was once part of Mexico. I've seen this on my family tree as borders shifted a family member could be from a particular city but that city can change countries throughout the years as borders shift. Also these borders are actually invisible man-made lines on a map, they're not real. They're meant to divide not to unite.
Country borders came about with colonisation, the entire continent with its subcontinents and Greenland which is part of the American continent was for a specific lineage along with part of AfroEurAsia. Other lineages were in the heirs lands.
@bluetinsel7099 even prior to being settled by Europeans they had their own borders, which changed through time. They came here with these ideas. To keep the "others" out because of whatever the perceived differences were.
There are two ways to create a border. Peaceful agreement, or aggression.
@
There were older lineages in America prior to the Asian natives. Mexico also acknowledged that.
What I have learned is that the majority of those with Latino ancestry have high rates of indigenous DNA. But that’s not how DNA works as you mentioned.
As far as I know, membership in any cultural community has more to do with lived identity and experience within that community, participation, and belonging, then it has to do with DNA. There are some cultural communities where language is also an important aspect of this membership. So many Americans think of cultural belonging in terms of DNA and genetics and this is probably directly linked to the old racist views that used to dominate American society. I have seen Black Americans shout down people from Egypt, claiming they aren't real Egyptians because only Black people are. I have also seen Scottish Americans tell someone from Scotland that they can't really be Scottish because one of their parents is African. So I am not surprised that there would be Latino people who'd claim to be native or indigenous because they assume their DNA grants them membership in some indigenous cultural community - it doesn't. In a more traditional sense, cultural identity is NOT an individual's possession. It's not something one claims, like an old style colonizer claims a piece of land. It's a collectively owned thing that you participate with others in.
Don't worry sweetie. I'm more than a quarter native american (my Latina side, mother is more than 60%) and have been told "go back" since I was little. Unfortunately, native americans (Navajos that are AMERICAN citizens) are getting targeted by the ICE raids too. My cousin is terrified, even though she is a born US citizen because of her indigenous looks, with border patrols here in VA.
Hahaha. Tell your cousin to wear ALL her turquoise jewelry and moccasins. Dress like a Navajo, and they'll leave you alone.
I will just say that I was intrigued by her blend/combination of careers. 🤔
Also DNA percentages are based on confidence intervals. Me, 41% melanated North Italian here, zero Native American but related to Chavis of Lumbees. Go figure!
Lumbees are a mixed group, lot of European DNA in there

As most Latin Americans, in fact, almost all of them, their native ancestry is to land outside of America.People need to get this right.Just because you have native ancestry doesn't mean you can claim all of the americas.
@@Mista_Terrific81Elon Musk is an ‘African American’
Pre Columbus, Black Indeginous ?
Melanated so still very copper native american here long as she's not posing (and she looks more like us than you) she's right sorry yall don't like it
I'm 82% white (mostly English, Scandinavian) and 18% black (mostly NIgerian). I think if I need to leave the country I'll resettle in Rio de Janeiro or Sao Paulo, Brazil. I understand many folks there have a similar composition, with some mixed people even being part Germanic like here in the US.
Paraguy and Uraguy have an ample population of German and German Swiss
Most people in Brazil are of African descent so somewhat similar
And african ancestry =/= black. Black is a ethnic thing
Ugh blacks in America are being lied to. They are descendants of the Olmecs, mother-culture of Mesoamerica. The DNA test are lying. It’s a massive cover-up.
Not if you think of "America" as the full continent. So, according to this request, you have to spend 5 month in London, 5 in Stockholm and 2 in Lagos....
@@joeyscribbles9803 black is not an ethnicity nor a race
And just WHERE did she get that 'magic number' of 20% from?
The results for some whyte Americans
I do not have the patience to respond to nutty people. The internet is just a wonderland of Coucous living in an alternative reality. LOL. You're better than me.
If your eyes are crooked a straight picture appears so as well. Food for thought.
She has the skinniest face and is not melanated or shows any features at all, and a real native is nutty? We are not adornments for you to flaunt to be a more exotic white person once enough invader seed has flushed the inconvenient parts of us out sorry, 10% does NOT equal 100% no matter how much your disdain for other cultures so much that a drop is the same as a cup to you
A Latina telling an Italian lady to get off her land because she's not "native"...You can't make this stuff up, especially since Columbus was an Italian being bankrolled by the Spanish crown. Also it wasn't called Latin America because the Spanish colonists were assimilating into local indigenous cultures. If anything she's the colonizer, and needs to be the first one to go according to her.
She’s more than just Italian, though.
@@azborderlands I know. I just didn't want to type out all of the different kinds of ancestry she has.
I’m loving the drama 🎭
Danielle, I want to thank your content! This persons claims are ridiculous, if I sell or give up my house (legally) I can’t come back and claim it unless I purchase it back for myself. I understand the claim they believe they were the only ones here before the Europeans arrived (which is false). Historically, the USA paid Mexico for the land and allowed the Mexicans to become citizens of the US.
Wow I have heard it all thank you for sharing about that Latina woman saying that we have to go back to our native countries what if you have to pick between 50% of one country or 50% of the other stupid ridiculous how ignorant can someone be OMG thank you for sharing again showing us how much stupidity people can actually have
American blood, I almost fell in the floor
Me, too! 😂😂😂
There is no such thing as American DNA. That is bat shit crazy!
On the floor
Blood is Blood with different Types and + or - Rhesus designation. GENES tell an ancestral story much like the rings of the central trunks of trees. 🌲🌳
Well Native Americans do have DNA connected to
The western hemisphere 🌎.
Watching this now and also putting it on a playlist for later. Want to make sure i see it before the trolls try to get it offline
😬
Just because you have native ancestry doesn't mean you can claim all of the americas. If your indigenous ancestry is in peru that doesnt mean u can claim nativeness in the US
You sound European.
Most “Native Americans” are actually Asians. Came over the land bridge.
Just because your European doesn’t mean you can claim nativist to America.😂
And you sound like a idiot . Native ancestry does not mean you can claim all of America's.The native tribes here weren't just one giant tribe.There were multiple and dozens , if not hundreds , many of them having different phenotypes , even different genetically. Instead of speaking out of your ass do some damn research and stop thinking that native and indigenous people of america was just one giant red indian because they weren't and it would be very stupid and simpleton of you to think so
@commonsensenotsocommon840You're just talking because that doesn't even make sense.Nor is that something I even said
