we as Black Americans have all type of admixtures

Some People From New Orleans have french in they're bloodline (European)


Numerous studies have estimated the rate of European admixture in African Americans; these studies have documented average admixture rates in the range of 10% to 20%, with some regional variation, but also with substantial variation among individuals [1]. For example, the largest study of African Americans to date, based on autosomal short tandem repeat (STR) markers, found an average of 14% European ancestry with a standard deviation of approximately 10%, and a range of near 0 to 65% [1], whereas another study based on ancestry informative markers (AIMs) found an average of 17.7% European ancestry with a standard deviation of 15.0% [2]. By using nine AIMs, Parra and colleagues [3] found substantial variation of European ancestry proportions in African-American populations across the United States, ranging from just over 10% in a Philadelphia group to more than 20% in a New Orleans population. Similar levels (11% to 15%) of European ancestry also were reported by Tishkoff and co-workers [4], based on more than 1,000 nuclear microsatellite and insertion/deletion markers.
now is this relevant to the topic?

unless you agree with Marcus Sander that you are closer to europeans than Africans, this info is useless

do you black Nativist know how to process information and how to stick to topics?

:dahell:Yes he did. He literally says it at the 27:30 mark but the phone goes out/gets muted.

No he didn't.

"I don't look like a European but..."

he could have said anything after that. You assumed he meant that. But I listened to a few minutes before that point.

You have to consider his whole argument. Summoning it up: he isn't African because he has African DNA just as he isn't European because he has European DNA. FBA had an ethnogenesis, i.e. we are are a combination of many different groups and developed a new culture/identity from our shared struggle on this land.

That is what he was talking about. He wasn't saying he is more European than African. He was saying none that matters because it doesn't define him or his identity as an FBA.
