Black Culture Discussion Thread

Not possiblity. They do. They are building a serious database with all the info ppl give. If a pharma company offers 100s of millions for data you think these companies gonna say no? All these companies sell your data. Or leave back doors open.

Big thing coming is custom medicine based on your genetics instead of one pill fits all approach.

Ain't no one tryin to clone anybody

Why jump all the way to cloning? plenty other things to do in between like companies using it to get a hold of your medical information and use it against you etc.

You have to be a whole dummy to send your DNA into a company you know little about....
Do you fools have any idea what type of **** goes on overseas with the genetics black market???
Especially in South East Asia??

Who runs Ancestry???
What is their racial cultural religious background?
What are their parent's/family background??

Yall some crash test dummies fa real...
God help these people...
When did us black Americans become so ******* gullible?

 

[wr]

The whole concept of ppl erasing your history then selling it back to you is strange to me.

Has anyone been to Benin and have any advice to share on the visa process?

That’s the dumbest thing ever. When you order a DNA kit you don’t even need to put a name with it.

I ordered 4 at the time for me and my ex, and 2 other friends.

When you get the testing kit, you send in saliva for each. And if you want you give a name.

I can send in a saliva and say the person name is John McLovin and they send back the results saying based on John mclovin Dna he is this and that.

Just go do your dna rest and stop claiming you are 50% Native American and 50% Japanese while in fact you are 100% African.

Just stop

Why did you choose ancestry over 23andme

 

[wr]

Your address associated with your name/family bruh.

 

[DCAllAfrican]

Hmmmmm

@ Using a fake name when someone has your address

 

[gry60]

Hmmmmm

The thing people like the lady in the video miss is:

"That's not how society at large sees you; you are a black woman that happens to be Christian, not vice-versa. Therefore, I, American society, will apply to you every single stereotype associated to Black people until you prove me wrong."

Had this society thought of her like she does (that she is a Christian who happens to be Black), law enforcement wouldn't be able to get away with character assassination after shooting/killing unarmed Black folks; we wouldn't validate those who say "he must've done something" when Black folks get harrassed and brutalized by authorities; the disproportionality in the sentencing of Black folks wouldn't be swept under the rug; we wouldn't readily accept public figures who maintain that there must be something inherently wrong about being Black.

The color of my skin doesn't define who I am, but American society (that is, those who don't know me) tends to judge me based on that. It's really past time people stop lying to themselves.

It’s like y’all can’t read.

I ordered a kit for 4 people and didn’t attach a name it.

If that’s y’all excuse to finding out who you really are then I don’t know what else to tell you people

 

[wr]

Where are you they sending results to once they're done fam?
Better yet, what's your address and I'll tell you what your name is.

 

[layziegunts]

Why did you choose ancestry over 23andme

I think 23andme is better for knowing stuff like what kind of disease you are susceptible to and things like that.

While ancestry is mainly about geography’s

 

[layziegunts]

I swear I get frustrated talking to niketalk about real ****.

You can order it from a friends house and get the results sent to a made up email.

When I ordered all the kits, I gave one to my homeboy and he sent in his saliva. THEY HAVR NO IDEA WHO HE WAS NAME OR ADDRESS. With my information, I don’t care. I think it was more important for me to find out who I was instead of worrying about all the conspiracy crap.

A lot of black people have no idea who they are and where they are from and it’s very interesting to finally pinpoint what is your ethnic makeup.

As I said, I recommend using ancestry if you want to find out.

 

[wr]

I apologize for all I said bruh. Sound like you got the game all figured out. Using a throwaway email is genius. I bet they'll find find brilliant ppl in your lineage.

This thread has taken a turn for the worse

 

[layziegunts]

Lol, it’s all love.

I posted my dna results and I’ve already been to North, East, and Southern Africa and now since my next place to visit is West I can definitely pinpoint Cameroon and know that a majority of my ancestry is from there and know that’s the first place I want to visit.

I recommend you to take a dna test because nothing will beat knowing exactly who you are.

If you are all up on that conspiracy thing more power to you. Then simply don’t take it

I said my peace, take care guys.

What about the site: http://www.africanancestry.com/home/

Know anything about them?

No it has not.
We still talking.
We just have different opinions.
Just because we not all blindly agreeing doesn't mean the thread took a turn for the worst.
Not everyone thinks the same and that's okay to me.
