1ºYou have put this so nicely to console yourself. Your Mom worked in a night Club and your Dad was a Carpenter repairing floors. He could not have been repairing the Night Club floor to have met your Mom. He most probably visited the Night Club and had an interaction with your Mom resulting in your birth. In those days around that time prostitutes give children up for adoption because having a child affected their occupation and the money they earn and the way they work did make it difficult to care for a child. There were often reports of children being dumped in rubbish bins or left on the streets while some were given up for adoption.
2ºBrian Sheffey  you don’t think 1790 is a good idea of how America looked? Lol
Pre 1965 (great society act) African-American families were doing just as well as white families were. Based off the data, welfare was designed to destroy the black family.  Pre-1965 black families had more things in common with Booker T. Washington, Frederick Douglass, Candace Owens, Martin Luther King, dr. Ben Carson, Clarence Thomas.
Pre 1965 black leaders of the 5 largest cities, put together five high schools, where they had almost no equipment, and turned out students with similar out comes, as some of the best white private schools in America. Democrats have destroyed the black family, the black story.
And if you want to continue to victimizes communities with your verbal welfare, you need to move to these communities that have been destroyed by your verbal welfare .. deal?
3ºEach time I read about mysterious discoveries via DNA test, what readily come to my mind is never to be too rigid, dogmatic or throw all my weight behind whatever I believe, disbelief, love, hate, etc, because I may discover one day, after many years, either through DNA test, or hear the true story of my life, that I have been making a nuisance of myself!
It happened to a 20 year old girl in my home town, Ondo, Ondo state, Nigeria , who developed great hatred for the Hausas in the Northern part of Nigeria, only for her to discover later that her biological father was an Hausa man via her mother's true confession after being born again!
4ºBrian Sheffey I think we have a pretty good idea what the ethnicity was in America based off of the census lol we had a few poc that assimulated wonderfully in my country, and were allowed to stay. That’s how countries work. The first person killed in the revolutionary war was a black man. the first female millionaire in America was a black woman who died in 1918. You people in the left don’t talk about these people because they assimulated into a white country. They didn’t try to destroy the white Anglo-Saxon protestant culture of this country was developed on. That’s all we want, come here assimilate show respect you can stay.. if not your tribalism will destroy you.
5ºThere were distinct groups of people such as the Celts, Gauls, Germanic, Nordic tribes. They all have particular characteristics that are dominant in their groups. Reason why there are more natural blonds in Nordic countries than elsewhere.......... As for Nazis, Jews were considered Asiatic. Because our origins were in the Middle East. After being expelled from Israel in 70ad, a lot of us ended up in Europe as well as being dispersed throughout North Africa. With admixtures genes were shared. But as one poster shared on this post Jews stayed mainly to themselves, through intermarriage. Besides that we were ostracized and considered other throughout history. Silvia Sambiase the information is not hard to find, just goggle it.
6ºOne thing about DNA analysis, you can’t deny your roots.
I had one of my eldest birth kids do theirs first. I just wanted to see her genetic makeup in comparison to my own. Her roots linked me deeper into family I’d heard bout and family fallouts that changed my family last name spelling but once I did my own it links started clicking and I met people that I never would’ve known. I’d always heard that kid has Asian roots but to discover it was from my own family line was amazing. I’d heard of the native roots, and knew they could possibly be of my own from meeting my own great great grandmother, but that test sealed it. Where I want to dig the deepest is my sub-Saharan roots, because they were the strongest.
7ºBasic white?
During history, it has never been successful when people only married their close relatives, because they believed in the superiority of their own DNA.
The same is true for the Nazi racist ideology (antisemitism based on crazy race theories), and also for Royal families who only married other Royals (who were often quite close relatives).
Whenever racist and similar (proto-racist) ideologies spread, the result was an increase of intellectual disability - combined with the megalomaniac belief in the superiority of one’s own race, class or social degree.
The Royal Empires that survived history, only survived when they adapted to modern anti-racist, anti-classist values, such as social equality (the same value of all human beings, no matter who their ancestors were). Anything else leads to collective megalomania - and we all know how this has always ended.
8ºWho cares!!! An American is an American. Values and standards matter, NOT race. Character and principles are what is important. Again, NOT RACE. Why do the left insist on dividing people into three groups based on RACE, gender/sexual orientation and financial status? Who cares what colour you are or what race you are.
The last group of people who put this much emphasis on race were the nazis. Let that sink in. It’s the left that continues to foment the idea of racism in order to divide people into groups and garnish support. Conservatives rightly believe colour of skin is irrelevant. Character and values matter, not race. Skin colour is as irrelevant as shoe-size or eye colour. It DOESN’T matter. The principles and values you espouse are paramount not the pigmentation in your skin.
9ºSo why is this news and why is it so special to be white like it's such a big privilege deal?
I'm sure everyone has something else in their DNA by now.
This dumb ignorant belief in racial purity is what devised segregation and Jim Crows law in the first place. As if it's a bad thing to have black ancestry in your DNA because African Americans were once slaves who were looked down upon as uncivilized, dirty, poor, lacking intellect and seen as wild and destructive compared to chimps and baboons.
So a white man finds out he has African ancestry it makes news on CNN as if it's a miracle loophole or something that's not supposed to happen. Go figure...
Having black DNA doesn't mean you'll be treated like black people or enjoy the perks of being black. He's probably 92% white anyways
10ºHello CNN Good evening.
Good evening to everyone right here on Facebook. I was called William Samuel Butler Smith, "Also Known As" William Smith since I was 4 years old & right now. I am 32 years old. BUT, I don't know my parents. And APPARENTLY, the old lady who took care of me told me that I am not her relative before she died recently. she told me that she picked me up on the street while she was going to church one Sunday morning. she is dead & gone now. she didn't gave me or left me ANYTHING before she died & right now. I don't have a job, I am jobless, hungry & homeless
she told me that she doesn't relate with me in anyway & I don't know what to do with my life right now. I feel so sad about it... ( Who will adopt me as his or her son forever )
