@AncestryUS is there anyway us who are not celebrities can have him dive into our history like this in private or publicly? Either way I would love to know my history. I already sent my DNA to your lab and it's almost done. But I would love to know even more. Can you let me know how I can do this. Thank you so much for all that you guys do. This is so exciting.

Well, during slavery escaped slaves from slave states of Texas, Florida, Alabama, and Louisiana went there. I mean it made more sense than running all the way to Canada. When Mexico ran everything West of Louisiana they outlawed slavery can't remember the dates...Google it. They were welcomed with open arms, no I.D. SS# or any documentation. 😉

@@brandonshepherd7477 I mean, he didn’t have to worry about his children because he knew they were with their mother. So I’m sure that it afforded him some sort of peace during such turbulence. I think this speaks to BOTH parents determination and guts. So no, it’s not about “praising the one over the other” - it’s about praising BOTH in the COUPLE that believed so much in their convictions that they kept pushing even after there was obvious danger to them. Stop spreading such hate. I’m sure her father would praise their mother and vice-versa. A couple like that IS A TEAM. It’s not a COMPETITION because BOTH are supporting EACHOTHER. 🙄 stop trying to speak for her own father when he can very well do that for himself.

If anyone wants to know how brutal President Moi's regime was, read about Robert Ouko; it seems his spirit cannot rest in peace. The shockwaves of what happened to him still reverberate every year when Ouko's name comes up here and there. He was a symbol of the single minded brutality of that era. I dont blame Lupita's dad for fleeing, and it was incredibly brave of him to come back after only 4 years. Alot has changed in Kenya because of these brave men and it is our prayer that God will continue to liberate and protect this country. Raila Odinga is of course the symbol of democracy in Kenya having fought for many of the freedoms we enjoy today, though very much unappreciated - esp. among the youth - due to poor documentation of our history, and a continued culture of tribal discrimination that plagues the country; fueled by politicians. We believe, and we declare by God's grace that NEVER AGAIN will we suffer the madness of those years.

Even though she was born in Mexico, the whole family returned to Kenya when Lupita was 1 year old. She basically grew up and went to school in Kenya until 16 .. after high school that she went back to Mexico. She started her acting right in Kenya while at school and on Kenyan theatre scene and media. She as just as Kenyan as it can get. Now people want to make her more Mexican and American than she is Kenyan.

Nigeria is one of the most ethnically diverse countries in the world (believe it's #5). While that may seem like a challenge, it can serve as a framework. Use the migration periods of the groups that you belong to. Research conquests, conflicts, tribal and kingdom alliances for clues. You may be able to narrow it down to a reasonable probability by eliminating the impossibilities. I love the work that this research team does for that reason. Sherlock Holmes could learn from this channel.

I didn't know that about her father or family in general but I wished there was more on like her grandparents or further back like the others they have done.

Sure is. She comes from a long line of political power. Her forefathers (great grands) were given money and power from the West to point out and sell other people that resided in Africa to be enslaved in the West or around the world (Trans Atlantic Slave trade).

I admire Lupita, and her father was really brave to fight for the liberation of his people buT I think it was a bit selfish to bring them all back with him to Kenya during such a risky, dangerous time! He could've let me stay safe in Mexico until he achieved his goal, especially considering what tribulations the family had already endured! P.S. She really should get a top notch, wealthy handsome man for a mate, and noT settle for just anyone that's clearly not on her level-Blaq women waste their talents, energy and beauty on the wrong men too much and she'd do well to step "outside of the box" to break that cycle!!! 🔥

It is a very fascinating story but I have to wonder if Lupita actually found the answer to her question from the program? I thought she wants to find out what actually happened to her uncle but what we hear from this clip is the activism work her father did, which is very inspiring but her father is a governor in Kenya now, so it shouldn't be a secret anymore and Lupita should be able to find this out directly from her father or those he worked with.
