apparently only 5% of caucasian people who thought they were fully european are actually 0.6-2% Nigerian or North African in some other sense, quite interesting. another fun thing is that most dna kits only track 6-8 generations back, meaning someone in my family was nigerian in the past one hundred and fifty years! we were rich back then and all lived in america so they probably didnt want to be in my family, quite sad. I am also purportedly native american (though, around 1800, so we have no dna evidence and i am finding the record evidence currently), which also was probably dubious, but if i am, good thing, maybe it evens out the two hundred native americans my other ancestor killed!
i lowkey hope im not and wish i wasnt even that 2% nigerian either cause it feels just like . stealing. thats not who i am, and its not who yk 90% of my ancestors were either, and we uhm werent kind to them, probably, which makes me not usually sad because i understand it was a part in history and not something i am personally responsible for, but i feel sad that they were forced to probably have children that they didnt want with someone who they didnt love, probably, of course assuming, but uhm i know we owned slaves and i know none of us probably went to britain or something and married a nigerian and then came back here and everyone was fine with it, i realize it was probably uhm forced, and not something good. not something that someone who was african american would you know be happy to find out, i cant imagine finding out i was related to someone who held one of my family members in that position which we did, i would be really really angry and disgusted and i just feel bad for them.
