But in terms of genetics, it’s inaccurate. We’re mostly and at minimum 60% European and with the rest being American. And or vice versa. And the ones that do have African, is no more than 10%. The funny thing though, is that some of us that do have West African. Those African people being the ones that are thought to have landed in America, way before any European.
