This was fascinating and with the hats, hilarious. You do such engaging videos! I assumed European and African but whoa so much more. Next time I see you I will know to bring some lefsa and matzoh for starters. Some of that DNA may really appreciate it.

How did East Africa meet Scandinavia? Also your haplogroup would tell you where you are from paternal and maternally so your one is ?

I'm skeptical of both Scandinavia AND East Africa. Neither gets much play on 23andME, only AncestryDNA. Haplogroups: Maternal: L3b Paternal: R-PF6570

@jbaron8120 7 жыл бұрын
The haplogroups might help. L3b is East African mostly. R-PF6570 which is R1b1a1a2a1a2b. I found this through the first website below by searching (PF6570) and than through the tree in the other websites. isogg.org/tree/ISOGG_HapgrpR.html www.eupedia.com/europe/Haplogroup_R1b_Y-DNA.shtml www.eupedia.com/images/content/R1b-U152-tree.png

The thing that surprising is that you have L3 most slaves in history only usually have L1 or L2 which is West African. Or other European haplogroups. You have no ancestry in DNA test to East Africa. Might be Kenyan or from Mozambique Southern Bantu . Scandinavian not skeptical as they where in America and people probably thought they where British or German Descent. So kind of true. Might be 1/10000(0) slaves from East Africa.

Yes...much of what he is saying about the slave trade, I agree with. I lived in West Africa Nigeria and Benin, and spent time in Liberia, Ghana and Togo. I learned more about the slave trade than what I learned in the US in high school or university. 65% of slaves went to S. America, mostly in Brazil, about 35% to the Caribbean, 5% in the US and 5% elsewhere. Also, yes the Portuguese started the transatlantic slave trade. However, many of the slaves came through a tiny nation called Benin (known then as the Kingdom of Dahomey). Slaves from Nigeria, Benin, Togo and Ghana came through this port. The slaves were branded and sold wholesale by the African kings to slave traders who owned the ships. In the new world, they were sold in a "retail" manner. Just like traded goods.

As a degreed Sociologist, I know that it is easy to be misled by family stories and cultural misunderstanding by family and peers. We don't always appear to be what we mostly are. DNA is very complex. I am 25 percent Tennessee Creek Native and look like a half Irish, Half German. My brother is exactly the same make up but looks like he is half Native American. It is how a Genetic trait "Expresses" itself that decides what we look like. A lesser percentage of say, African DNA, may actually show up as a predominant ethnic gene, even though it is not the larger ethnic portion in your DNA. As I always say, Be proud of what you are, be proud of who you are.

You're spot on with your observations with the differences between Ancestry, and 23andme. I noticed the differences right away myself. I'm not so confident with the African results from 23andme. Their sample size is still growing, and I they just don't do a good job with African ancestry in my opinion. Once I learned how to use Gedmatch I found better tools that reconciled the differences between the two companies. You should try Gedmatch.

One thing to take into consideration is that the Scandinavian might be so high because a large percentage of the UK and Ireland was invaded and settled by the Vikings and it is one of the root dna's seen within the UK and Irish populations.

I was going to suggest the same about the Scan ancestry re Ireland/England etc. However, there were a significant amount of Scan migration into the Americans during the 19th century and many traveled west, across PA, OH, IND and Illinois. Also, re Bantu... since Bantu is often described as one of the original or foundational peoples in Africa it is not uncommon to find very strong Bantu DNA in western African... especially since the Bantu migrated throughout the continent.

Mr. Rowan I love your video. I glad you broke the slave trade and the African diaspora of slavery. I just got back from the Cayman islands. I showed my his people that leave in the Caribbean. In his 9 year old mind, he thought it would Mexican or Latin looking people. He was surprised to see people that look like him. America received the least amount of slaves. Mexico has more Africans that are now Afro Mexican than America. You should try doing the test on your oldest relative still alive. And see what results you get.

I loved your presentation. I'm also questioned about my ethnicity. I'm planning to do the testing for my 60th birthday. Your family photos are exquisite and ought to be in museums. You are fortunate to have hailed from such powerful and handsome people! Don't apologize for the important historical, political, economic data. People have no clue as to the realities behind the enslavement of Amerindians and Africans. Also Africans were kidnapped and enslaved. They were free, creative, community and family oriented human beings prior to the evil scourge of the Slave trade.

Hi Jeff Rowan, Your DNA test results is one of the best I have ever seen. I enjoyed watching every second. Like someone mentioned, you are a male Oprah. Your family pictures gave me goose bumps.....beautiful family background you came from. You are very handsome and intelligent. I enjoyed the brief history of the slave trade in America and elsewhere and I would love if you can make more videos on our history to help others. Your voice is will be GREAT for it. Thank you for this great video and I'm hoping to see more of you on other videos. By the way, I'm a Creole and I've been living in Denmark most of my life. My husbands is native of Denmark and my family immigrated to Sierra Leone (Krio) from America: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sierra_Leone_Creole_people The majority of my relatives are dead now... I'm hoping to have my DNA tested this summer. I'll try to share it with you 😊

And Muslim countries completely get off the hook, even though they started it hundreds of years before whites, and ended it much, much later. Fun fact- most blacks vote Democrat. The current VP candidate, Kamala Harris, had ancestors that owned slaves! Yet, many will still vote for her (via Biden).
