They are surprised because they are American-born and raised. Most Latin Americans who grew up in their respective countries get the basic education of the history of our countries, including their migration patrons. We were told all our indigenous tribes and where most Chileans came from, but It seems American Hispanics are not told much about their ethnic histories.
In the US they are told that they are of a « latino » race. Which is supposed to be racially and civilisationally something totally distinct from the « western world / european / « whites »… They have constructed their identity believing it was something in opposition to the mainstream American people, and, by extension, to Europe (because the mainstream American identity likes to present itself as been the heir of European identity, which is actually absurd) The reality is that the whole of the Americas are heir of Europe, but of different parts of Europe. The north germanic for the US and the latin for latin America…
They actually do teach Latino history in America, (the caste system, slavery, mestizo vs criollo vs Spaniards etc) but we learn about it for maybe like 2 weeks and then we get tested on it and then forget it
I meannnn… the people in that video looks like they being educated in the American system (not all of them i don’t know), which in there, they don’t explore a lot on South American history and that almost all the population is a mix. That’s why they are so shockers by the results. But yeah I agree and that’s true. If you been born and raised in a Latino country, you’ll automatically assume that you’re a mix of many ethnicities (just don’t know how much)
I was never taught about Mexican history in the USA. We learned about George Washington, the civil war, slavery and WW2. If it wasn’t for my parents teaching me, I’d be lost too. I suppose that’s what happened when you come from a conquested ethnic group.
Hello, this comment is not genealogy related. I just want to thank you for your work. I have suffered a very painful loss recently and your videos are the only thing that can distract me from my inconsolable grieving. I have always loved genealogy and your style is so calming yet captivating. Thank you for being on UA-cam. ❤
My great friend from Puerto Rico told me about her DNA test results : 78 % Spanish (Canary Islander and Balearic Islander - Mallorcan) 16 % African (West African - Senegal /Guinea) 6% Indigenous (Taino /Arawak)
Ofcourse. Spanish and Portugese people came to th American continents, Africa and Asia. They picked up slaves from the Sub saharan region (they were brought to sea because Europeans got sick of Malaria) THAT IS WHY YOU ARE MIXED.
I’m American (both parents are Dominican) and these are my 23andMe results Sub-Saharan African - 47.2% European - 40.7% Indigenous American - 5.8% Western Asian & North African - 5.5%
Actually, in Brazil we didn't have a higher Native American reading, overall. According to Genera, largest DNA company in Brazil, the average results of the Brazilian population is this: 72% European, 11% African, 6,5% Native American, 5,5% Middle Eastern, 2% Asian. My results are kinda similar to the average: 82% European, 7% African, 6% Native American, 5% Middle Eastern.
I’m half Irish half Puerto Rican and I’m 79% European 11% African ( All sub Saharan) and 10% Indigenous (Tainos of Puerto Rico).These are my ancestry dna results. 23 and Me has me at 81.4% European 9.1% Sub Saharan African 7.6% Indigenous American 0.8% North African 1.1% Unassigned.

I guess pigmentation can really be a weird thing. My parents and I look very spaniard to the point where I thought most of my ancestry was Spanish. However, I did an ancestry test and it said 61% percent of my dna is indigenous. It makes sense though cuz my great grandparents look very indigenous. Im also from Colombia so I guess what you said about us mostly having native ancestry is true. Loved the video btw, very informative. I definitely want to know more about my indigenous roots.
Hi. I've a friend from Colombia who could pass for white. Her brother (full bro, to my knowledge) was more brown and looked more indigenous. Their dad looked like he had more mixture of Indigenous & black ancestry. She was the one who told me/ educated me that Latinos may be white, brown or black and everything in between. 😊
Yeah, although Cubans and Puerto Ricans are also Hispanic Caribbean like Dominicans, they have much higher African ancestry than we do. The Puerto Rican average is 65% European, 15%- 20% African and 15% Native American. Although they're still our full siblings.
The Jews from Iberia are Sephardic. The problem lies more with these tests having a difficult time deciphering between Ashkenazi DNA, Sephardi DNA, and other Jewish population groups. 23andMe only has one Jewish category that they lump everything into and then, unfortunately, call it Ashkenazi Jewish. If they instead called it just Jewish or even European Jewish (like Ancestry) I think it could cause fewer issues of misunderstanding.
@@ProfessionalGenealogistReacts One problem with lumping all Jews together is if you are getting tested to see what ethnicities you have as a way to focus where to do the paper research, and it is lumping so many countries under one label, it is sort of useless. And for so many of us, we don't have elders anymore, and they were so busy surviving, or their lives were so awful they didn't want to talk about the past, we don't have the direction to go in. That happened to me. I did as much paper research(23years and still searching) as I was able to, one family story was that some of our origins were in the Iberian Peninnsula, the first Ancestry test reflected that, but they updated and took away the North African and Iberian and made it all Ashkenazi.....They also did the same with another two ethnicities, that fit oral history, from the first test, and made them Ashkenazi, too. Those first ethnicities fit with the oral history of where our ancestors lived(Yes, where you live and ethnicity are two different things). Still, my reason for testing in the first place was to focus where to do the paper research. And Jewish Peoples of Europe is a pretty broad designation, lots of countries.....
Both my grandma and I have Jewish ancestry (I have yet to test the rest of the Family), they settled in Yucatán. We have many matches across different Jewish communities, Middle East, and Northern Europe. they mostly intermarried amongst cousins. There’s a video on the Alcocer, Diaz and Cetina families that covers their Jewish roots, although from the number of jewish matches 200+ it could be more recent?
They seem to believe that latin/latino relates to native Americans…. Don’t they know that « latin » refers to the roman speaking nations of southern Europe ? Why are they surprised of having ancestry from latin Europe if themselves like to be called « latino » ? Would Anglo-Americans be surprised to have english ancestry ?
The thing with the Sefardic jews who needed to convert to Christianity also happaned to the muslims from the empire before the Catholics, which added North African to the Iberian dna as well. another fact is that many people from Canarian islands moved to the American caribean.
I have no paperwork for any of my family. Birth record, marriage license, and other data. Both my parents are from TX, working in the fields with their families. My uncle told me that they didn't exactly document names, dates, and other details. Plus, my father changed his last name, so there's that. HIS father is a mystery. No name is known besides the last name maybe? I'm talking 1940, so it was the Wild West when it came to keeping people's information. I love my life because I had to work hard coming up. Life's good now, but I want a family history to leave my son for his records, so he and his fam can know where he came from.
I came across your channel and subscribed soon after. This is so interesting! Im still trying to get everyone in my ancestory straight. Im sure on one side is British Colonel American. Very curious about that. I can go back on one side to the 1500s. Around the end of the 1500s someone came over from Britain to the States. I need to go to my family history library and have someone teach me how exactly to figure this all out. My church (Church of Jesus Christ) is very, very helpful when doing ancestory. We should all take advantage of their knowledge and teachings. Anyway, I digress. I've watched 3 of the DNA videos. Like I said, it's very interesting. Thank you for sharing and explaining about each one's DNA. I can tell they thought it all exciting. Very fun to watch. 😊
Random question to anyone who might know. Is the myheritage DNA estimation preview accurate? I looked at the link and got a result I would never in a million years expect. So to sum it up, will the results change from the preview?😂
Yes, but it can take some work. If you get one of your parents tested and do what is called phasing, that is the easiest way. If you can't have a parent tested, then doing DNA painting and/or visual phasing may help you identify which bar is from which parent, but once you figure out the first chromosome it won't be consistent of which bar is on top or bottom with the subsequent chromosomes.
I have friends from all over the world so i don’t know if it’s confirmation bias or’if i’m a breathing walking dna test myself. I could see the african in the first, more european in the second, well mixed in the third, very native american the fourth...
This isn’t a political channel but Jews originated in the middle east where Israel is then migrated in to multiple countries in europe and the middle east then after world war 2 to the US and back to where they started Israel where Palestine Arabs live
If you REALLY want to know why there was a "need" to migrate, then you have to do a bit of reading about the history and histories of the jews. You'll find a long history of persecution, social exclusion, etc.
Unrelated question to the content of this video in particular since you seem to know quite a bit about the topic (I paused when you started talking about the chromosome painting): Is there any chance of knowing which bar of the chromosome "pairs" is from your father and which from your mother? Context: my test results were 98.8% Spanish and Portuguese and 1.2% Italian, and if I look at the "chromosome painting", the Italian fragment appears as a single long fragment located on one particular chromosome (rather than being scattered throughout the whole painting), so I was wondering if it would be possible to know which parent I inherited it from (without making them do a test, for now)
You are looking for what is known as phasing, although that requires either one parent to test or multiple close relatives (to do what is known as visual phasing).
My Parents are both ethnic Serbs from Bosnia & Serbia and I did the ancestry test on MyHeritage to see what I will get. According to MyHeritage I´m: - 50,9 % Balkan - 15,1 % Eastern Europe - 13,8 % Baltic - 13,4 % West Asian - 4,2 % Scandinavian - 1,6 % Oriental - 1,0 % Greek All in all, this sounds legit. My only complaint is how roughly decribed these regions are. They should go a little more into detail because "Balkan", "Eastern Europe" AND "Baltic" ALL overlap together. This makes it difficult to do fruther researches since MyHeritages does not reveal your Haplogroups. In view of this I assume that my Ancestors belonged to various different civilizations like Illyrians, Slavs, Germanic tribes and even Scythians since all these people met countless times in eastern / southern Europe. Roughly speaking, the result on MyTrueAncestry: - about 26% "Illyrians" - approx. 40% "Celtic-Germanic" (mainly Ostrogoths, Gepids, Scordisci, Gauls...) - Rest Scythians & Slavs for the most part Here the whole thing seems to be a little more "detailed" although I'm not quite sure about the seriousness of this site. They seem to be comparing your DNA samples to those from tombs from different ages. Whether that is really true remains to be seen. At least a few things match MyHeritage, with the Germanic-Celtic part seeming to predominate here. It even showed me haplogroups, which MyHeritage says isn't possible with the type of test they do (I uploaded the test from MyHeritage). My haplogroups appear to be: - R1b 40% - I2 16% - R1a 12% - J2 6% - I1 6% - E1b 5% - And yet another collection of small shares. All of the above groups all occur in the regions I have according to MyHeritage. A portion of R1b (the "Celtic DNA") even exists in western Asia. Is that all true? Who knows.
A little bit of history for ya mate; conquistadors were merceranries hired by the crown and descendants of the 'Spanish' militia intermixed with natives. My blood is Michoacano and I share similar DNA results with the African portion, but that's because it is recorded in history the Spanish hired a lot of men not reserved from Europe even African conquistadors existed. As a mestizo my blood lineage can be traced to 29% European and about 50 ish % in American or 'east asian' from native American. According to the results I can direct the blood is from some mountain near Michoacan but that tribe is non existent now. Here's an update after logging on. 53.2% American (Native American) 35.6% European (Bruv I am a blond Mexican born in Texas for reference) ***Highlighted**** 32% Iberian both Spanish and Portugese and a 0.7% Broadly Southern Europe which is not a big deal but it also highlighted a micro percentage of... Balkans? How? 7.3% Sub-saharan African Yes the biggest part is my features (a blond with big lips... many Black Americans pointed if I'm mixed... kind of) ***Big highlight*** 4.3% Senegambian & Guinean and 0.8% Broadly African So far the rest is 3% non assigned but broadly Asian.. must be the algorithm
How useful is this tool if both your parents , and most of your relatives all come from one endogamous population? And you are 99% from that same ethnicity?
Te equivocas en un dato, la peor inquisición fue la protestante, pero claro de eso nunca hablais los anglos. Según cálculos del historiador alemán Wolfgang Behringer, la persecución provocó en toda Europa entre 40.000-60.000 víctimas, donde 500 corresponden a la suma de las ejecutadas en España, Portugal e Italia (exceptuando las regiones alpinas de lengua italiana). En esta cifra, correspondiente a la primera parte de la Edad Moderna, Francia habría ejecutado a 4.000 y Alemania al menos a 25.000. Los judios fueron expulsados de Europa, no de España. Francia decretó la primera expulsión en esos siglos, en 1182 por el rey Felipe Augusto. Le siguió Inglaterra en 1290 ordenada por Eduardo I. Y los persiguió bien perseguidos, y a los que no mataron los expulsaron. Esa fue la primera gran expulsión de judíos en la edad media, la de Eduardo I de Inglaterra. Luego siguió otra vez Francia, con varios decretos de expulsión de judíos a lo largo del siglo… En 1306, en 1321, en 1322 y en 1394. Expulsiones ordenadas por Felipe IV de Francia. (léed de ellas, que vais a ver lo que es una expulsión sanguinaria) Bueno, continuamos con el Archiducado de Austria, que realizó tal expulsión de judíos en 1421. Expulsión llevada a cabo por Alberto II de Austria.
Native American is a political term. What constitutes the United States borders; are politically known as Native Americans. The border is just a arbitrary line drawn on a map that separates territory. On one side of the river they’re Mexican. On the other, could be constituted as Hispanos, natives, mixed. It is confusing because there are a lot of people saying different things. Indigenous Americans or Americanos, might be a better way to say it. Hawaiian people also, shit Samoanos also?
WHY DON'T YOU DO A VIDEO ABOUT THE DNA OF BLACK AMERICANS IN AMERICA. THEY ARE NOT FULLY AFRICAN AND HAVE A HIGH PERCENTAGE OF EUROPEAN MIXTURE IN THEIR DNA. THEIR EUROPEAN MIXTURE IS MAINLY, BRITISH. FOR CENTURIES, THE JEWISH POPULATION HAS EXISTED, ALL OVER EUROPE AND ALSO, IN OTHER PARTS OF THE WORLD, AS WELL AND NOT ONLY IN SPAIN.
They are surprised because they are American-born and raised. Most Latin Americans who grew up in their respective countries get the basic education of the history of our countries, including their migration patrons.

So true. The African element is particularly suppressed and denied through things like blanqueamiento.
They actually do teach Latino history in America, (the caste system, slavery, mestizo vs criollo vs Spaniards etc) but we learn about it for maybe like 2 weeks and then we get tested on it and then forget it
Its weird seeing latinos surprised by these results. The most basic history we learn in primary school tells how we are such a mix.
i mean i think a lot of people would be surprised when seeing their ancestry results
It's probably the percentages of what their ancestry is in comparison to how they look, not that they are surprised they are mixed.
I meannnn… the people in that video looks like they being educated in the American system (not all of them i don’t know), which in there, they don’t explore a lot on South American history and that almost all the population is a mix. That’s why they are so shockers by the results.

It's an old PeroLike video but Jarret's comments are interesting.

Do some tests overestimate certaint ethnicities or underestimate certain ethnicities by more than 5%?

This isn’t a political channel but Jews originated in the middle east where Israel is then migrated in to multiple countries in europe and the middle east then after world war 2 to the US and back to where they started Israel where Palestine Arabs live
If you REALLY want to know why there was a "need" to migrate, then you have to do a bit of reading about the history and histories of the jews. You'll find a long history of persecution, social exclusion, etc.
But surely, the jewish element would be Sephardi / Ladino, rather than "Germanic" Ashkanazi?

- 4,2 % Scandinavian
- 1,6 % Oriental

Roughly speaking, the result on MyTrueAncestry:
- about 26% "Illyrians"
- approx. 40% "Celtic-Germanic" (mainly Ostrogoths, Gepids, Scordisci, Gauls...)
- Rest Scythians & Slavs for the most part
Here the whole thing seems to be a little more "detailed" although I'm not quite sure about the seriousness of this site. They seem to be comparing your DNA samples to those from tombs from different ages. Whether that is really true remains to be seen. At least a few things match MyHeritage, with the Germanic-Celtic part seeming to predominate here. It even showed me haplogroups, which MyHeritage says isn't possible with the type of test they do (I uploaded the test from MyHeritage).
My haplogroups appear to be:
- R1b 40%
- I2 16%
- R1a 12%
- J2 6%
- I1 6%
- E1b 5%
- And yet another collection of small shares.
All of the above groups all occur in the regions I have according to MyHeritage. A portion of R1b (the "Celtic DNA") even exists in western Asia.
Is that all true? Who knows.

A little bit of history for ya mate; conquistadors were merceranries hired by the crown and descendants of the 'Spanish' militia intermixed with natives. My blood is Michoacano and I share similar DNA results with the African portion, but that's because it is recorded in history the Spanish hired a lot of men not reserved from Europe even African conquistadors existed.
As a mestizo my blood lineage can be traced to 29% European and about 50 ish % in American or 'east asian' from native American. According to the results I can direct the blood is from some mountain near Michoacan but that tribe is non existent now.
Here's an update after logging on.
53.2% American (Native American)
35.6% European (Bruv I am a blond Mexican born in Texas for reference)
***Highlighted****
32% Iberian both Spanish and Portugese
and a 0.7% Broadly Southern Europe which is not a big deal but it also highlighted a micro percentage of... Balkans? How?
7.3% Sub-saharan African
Yes the biggest part is my features (a blond with big lips... many Black Americans pointed if I'm mixed... kind of)
***Big highlight***
4.3% Senegambian & Guinean
and 0.8% Broadly African
So far the rest is 3% non assigned but broadly Asian.. must be the algorithm
How useful is this tool if both your parents , and most of your relatives all come from one endogamous population? And you are 99% from that same ethnicity?
For those of us into genealogy, the reason to take DNA tests is to find cousins, to either confirm the family tree, or to make new discoveries.
You will have several cousin matches with the same people. I am 12 th cousin to my father.
Where's the nebula link?

Brazil has the highest people of African decent population outside of Africa
Te equivocas en un dato, la peor inquisición fue la protestante, pero claro de eso nunca hablais los anglos. Según cálculos del historiador alemán Wolfgang Behringer, la persecución provocó en toda Europa entre 40.000-60.000 víctimas, donde 500 corresponden a la suma de las ejecutadas en España, Portugal e Italia (exceptuando las regiones alpinas de lengua italiana). En esta cifra, correspondiente a la primera parte de la Edad Moderna, Francia habría ejecutado a 4.000 y Alemania al menos a 25.000.
Los judios fueron expulsados de Europa, no de España.
Francia decretó la primera expulsión en esos siglos, en 1182 por el rey Felipe Augusto.
Le siguió Inglaterra en 1290 ordenada por Eduardo I. Y los persiguió bien perseguidos, y a los que no mataron los expulsaron. Esa fue la primera gran expulsión de judíos en la edad media, la de Eduardo I de Inglaterra.
Luego siguió otra vez Francia, con varios decretos de expulsión de judíos a lo largo del siglo… En 1306, en 1321, en 1322 y en 1394. Expulsiones ordenadas por Felipe IV de Francia. (léed de ellas, que vais a ver lo que es una expulsión sanguinaria)
Bueno, continuamos con el Archiducado de Austria, que realizó tal expulsión de judíos en 1421. Expulsión llevada a cabo por Alberto II de Austria.
¡Olé! 🎉

I just found out that I'm 1/16,384th Mexican.
Impossible
Native American is a political term. What constitutes the United States borders; are politically known as Native Americans. The border is just a arbitrary line drawn on a map that separates territory.
On one side of the river they’re Mexican. On the other, could be constituted as Hispanos, natives, mixed. It is confusing because there are a lot of people saying different things.
Indigenous Americans or Americanos, might be a better way to say it. Hawaiian people also, shit Samoanos also?
WHY DON'T YOU DO A VIDEO ABOUT THE DNA OF BLACK AMERICANS IN AMERICA. THEY ARE NOT FULLY AFRICAN AND HAVE A HIGH PERCENTAGE OF EUROPEAN MIXTURE IN THEIR DNA. THEIR EUROPEAN MIXTURE IS MAINLY, BRITISH. FOR CENTURIES, THE JEWISH POPULATION HAS EXISTED, ALL OVER EUROPE AND ALSO, IN OTHER PARTS OF THE WORLD, AS WELL AND NOT ONLY IN SPAIN.
