People should NEVER be unhappy about what is in their genetic history. If it weren't for those others, none of us would be here.
If a person is upset it's due being brainwashed, lied to, or can't comprehend what they are told based on their outlook on race and culture.
@@IVY-jr7io That's quite true and it's very sad. I've seen people show disappointment for whatever they've heard is in their lineage and I would simply be happy to know more. They get a gift and undervalue it.
My mom took a test to find out whether there was native American ancestry in her family. When the results arrived, they were negative for native American but positive for a small percentage of Samoan. I'm guessing there must be a sailor somewhere in the family tree in order for that to be there. Most of her family has European roots, so that one caught all of us by surprise.
Why do you comment if you don't?@@marvinnashwheresmyear
Native American can show up as pacific islander or Asian
These tests are not conclusive. If they don't have a sample swab from a political/ethnic group then they won't show a match. That's why so many people have been told they have native blood but the tests don't (ie, the whole tribe has been wiped out).
How this works is the smaller the percentage the further back in history your relative was Samoan.
Or it was a mistake. These tests aren’t perfect.
Nobody thought Scarlett Johansson was anything BUT Swedish.
It's interesting to me, that where and how you were raised, can clash with DNA results and bring new ideas of self.
This is a great observation, Claudine. Indeed, our DNA results can sometimes be at odds with family history that is passed down to us. It's important to bear in mind that even with a perfect knowledge of the history of your ancestors, DNA can still show some unexpected results. We each inherit 50% of our DNA from both our mother and father but exactly what 50% we inherit is random. This is known as genetic recombination and can cause unexpected DNA results for many members who do not inherit a region that they know their parent(s) has. Please see the article we've linked here which delves into inheritance and how it works: support.ancestry.com/s/article/Understanding-Inheritance?language=en_US. Remember that your DNA is only one element of a much larger picture, and your family history and relatives will play an important role in your genetic make-up, even if they are not specifically reflected in your ethnicity results. Check out the linked here for more information on the factors that can caused unexpected results: support.ancestry.com/s/article/Unexpected-Ethnicity-Results. We hope this article helps!
I'm really surprised that Gale would say 'take that back' .. and that anyone would think that theres something wrong with having white/black ancestry
Well what an you expect from someone like her? She feels she has to have that reaction.
It makes her less credible as liberal minority...
She was clearly kidding around. Rich black people especially love white people. Who do they marry?
58 percent of slaves were raped and 100 percent of them were non consent. If I could flush my whiteness I would
@@ffjsbYour comment makes you less credible as a thinking human being. Political opinions do not have to be tied to one’s race.
86% "British Isles" and 14% Handsome, Baby!!
When he asked about tracing his family to the beginning of time. There is this woman I went to church with who is really into family history and genealogy work. She works on it everyday for as long as I was a kid (I'm almost in my 40's) she was able to trace her and many others family history all the way back. She carries this huge long roll of paper with her everywhere she goes anytime she finds a relation to someone at church to shows them this huge poster of family tree kinda thing. It's amazing .
DNA can only tell you what your are but not who you are.
The who you are is the same for all of us and must be earned daily: "Your are what you do when it counts" - John Steakley
Given some of the reactions I'd say DNA did actually tell us who they are.
We’ve been around each other so long that nothing surprises me. I sent in my dna and it came back like I expected except 15% Scandinavian. I convinced a friend to do it. It came back 1% Senegalese. He asks where is that, “West Africa”. We both laughed. I guess you’re not exactly what you thought you were. Everyone should try dna tests.
No Company that can sell the DNA data you give to them will get mine volantarily.
I love this. I look like I am mixed, but DNA has shown me to be a true Pennsylvania and New York German! When I thought I could not get any more Germanic, I found out my mother's German ancestor was a Swedish soldier who setting in Northern Germany, after the 30 Years War Treat of Westphalen. Life is full of unexpected turns
@@kmjkmjkmj Lol - Yes, I am very diverse! I'm cool
@@kmjkmjkmjNordics are literally *Northern Germanics lol
I always wondered why my my relatives on my mothers side of the family have alot of German sounding names, and Spanish
@@George-zd6rbbut his blood is
@mariabop Depends on how many ancestors are German! I have a interesting story,my stepfather was born in 1939 " Beecher Illinois " his D.N.A,blood is almost pure German. I am myself was born and spent most of my childhood in Germany " Iam fluent in German" Mother is german,my father is Hungarian jewish.but since my stepfather has not that much German culture in him ,opposed to me,I and most Germans would consider me more German! Experiences that are in your psyche are more important that your D.N.A to truly identify you culturally!
I wish you had edited this UA-cam video & added names of people bc I don’t know who all these people are (at least not by looking at them) but I might know their name.
I think this is awesome! I would love to trace my family history on my maternal grandmothers side...we're black but we know we have Irish and Italian on that side through 2 my grandmother's grandparents but one of her grandfather's has an unclear ethnicity and I've heard everything from he was Indian to possibly Nepalese or he was from the Caribbean...the elders in my family who would have this information are all dead...i have one picture of him and a possible first name...I'm going to do my best to track him down 😁
Good luck! Hope to get an update!
Start your search on Familysearch( 1 word) It's free and it's database is larger than ancestry
Beautiful mix!!
And best of luck!!
Good luck. Sounds very interesting.
Disturbing to see that some freak out over what color skin some of their ancestors had.
If your brand and your career are based on one thing and something else turns out to be the case, it could be frightening.
What impact will the news have on other people's opinions of you ?
Will you lose your job because you are too White ?
I totally understand her fear.
Either way, she is a lovely lady.
Only the black people when they hear they are part white. They don't like that.
@OKOKOKOKOKOKOK-zn2fy Fear is not from the Lord. More important to be right with Christ than right with the world.
It was shocking, she wasn't being rude she just said no I'm not and take that back since those are common responses to being shocked
My mother's background and my father's background is all German English and Scandinavian. I love hearing how people have such surprising and exotic roots.
Oh that is exciting, The Wandering Wilsons! We wish you all the best with your research.
2:15 I always knew that Scarlett was Swedish… Johansson is such a generic and popular Swedish name! Plus, she looks very Swedish
I used to think she was European because she looks so Swedish or Danish.
If her ancestors were from Skåne, then she might still be danish :-)
Her grandparents on her father's side are/were Swedish, but her father was born and grew up in Denmark, became an architect in Denmark, and then immigrated to NYC and opened a design studio, married a New Yorker and got little Scarlett.
I was gonna say, could've asked me that lmao. Johansson is a Swedish name, not Danish. Even so, her family lived in Denmark for a while so they were still Danes who later moved to the US. 😊
Interestingly, my spouse was always told that they had an "Indian" ancestor with obvious indications they meant that the woman in question was Native American. Well, we did a DNA test and it turns out she was Indian, Punjabi to be specific. They had the wrong meaning of the old term, but family refuses to accept the results and insist that she was Native American, even some family that met her long ago. I have strong suspicions of why they won't accept it and none of them are flattering.
I took a DNA test some time ago-they said I was Swiss, Dutch, English, and cocker spaniel. How about that!
I love that show, and at this time it is very important for me to know my ancestors because they are showing up and out and been assisting me on this journey ,and I am very anxious to know more about them, for some strange reason they know who I am,oh please please would you do mines next year!
Yes...i was really offended from Gayle King's respond about being 1/3 white...
She was in shock and making small talk this is probably shocking for her. Your to easily offended
I did my DNA test with Ancestry last year as well. Not surprisingly, I was about 47 percent East European and Baltic. However, I was pleasantly surprised that I'm about 11 percent Scandinavian (mostly Norwegian). For a long time, I thought I had Italian or Spanish blood in me haha, as a lot of us in my family on the father side are very dark haired. But it seems that we prefer the North haha. Even have some English in me. Was quite fun to do the test. Unfortunately, I could not trace a lot of ancestors (especially on father's side) as a lot of them were peasants and could not read and write. :(

In Norway we have very dark haired and skin people in the saami communities. They stem from the Sibirians travelling along the northern coast of Russia and Scandinavia. They don`t look Scandinavian at all. You see, american people... we are all just one big blend that has evolved from tribes emigrating all over, blending with other tribes creating new tribes. Etc etc.. There is not several "races". There are only difference in background, appearances, cultures and characters. ONE RACE.
Until you get that, you will probably just keep on thinking your ancestry has anything to do with your behavior. It doesn`t. It`s all culture.
@@eltoro969 you put this so eloquently 💕
Fantastic. I've traced my paternal lineage back to the Norman Invasion in 1066, but that's the linear line through my father. My genetic make-up is much more complex, and includes contributions I had no idea I would discover.
My 26th Great grandfather was William the Conqueror, perhaps we have someone in common. More than 25% of the English population are his descendants. I’m grateful for the historical documentation of the British Empire.
@@donnahibbard1774it’s fascinating stuff! As he was 35-37 generations ago, just about everyone in England with English ancestry will be descended from him ( not all traceable or legitimate of course) and from anyone else alive at that time. So that also stretches out across the world for lots of people too.
Imagine a white person replying ' I am not black, take that back'.... Uproaarrrrr 😂
If a white person had black ancestry it usually means that their African ancestors was raped for a few generations, the guy from modern family is an example.
What a great show and Host.
We’re all related. Gods children. ❤
Maybe one day we’ll actually start acting like it.
i would love to watch this show, but sadly its not possible in Germany. I love those stuff.
If you can - I recommend getting a VPN. I had to do that while I was traveling, and it made it easy for me to watch my Amazon Prime movies while I was at the hotel.
It is available on Amazon Prime.

Thank you for sharing this insight into your mothers AncestryDNA results. We hope she is enjoying them. 😊
Congratulations
Regulations your heritage is filled with people who make terrible food
Yep, I'm 80% English, 18% European (Norman Conquest I'm guessing) and 2% Finnish (no idea, unless it's a stray Finnish Viking!) Of my 80% it all points to the north of England which is where my family line has been since at least the 1300s. DNA is fascinating.
@@grievousangel7742 Finnish could be from trade comming in from the Baltic Sea same probably with the 18% European you got to remember Hanseatic League was a huge trade confederation that stretched across Northern Europe. So cool tho makes you think did you ancestors live and work near a port city.
@@user-zo1uj2lo8k really good point, thanks for the nudge. We live (and always have) about 40 miles from a port called Whitby, which was a hugely important fishing and trading port, plus l was born in York which was the capital of the north and hosted people from around the known world. This stuff fascinates me!
I know what makes up most my heritage. I Am mostly German as my Grandmother was almost full German, French and Dutch as a great Grandmother was half French and Dutch, Scottish on both sides And still carry the last name of my mother's clan who were mean but did the jobs they had to do, 3 different Native American tribes French also on my dad's side with ties to William The Conquer ( i mean my Ancestry fought along side William when taking England) My German roots trace back to The birth city of the Late Prince Phillip. There is a possibly of Asian somewhere do to my looks but that could also be linked to my Plains Inidian roots as my Great Great Grandmother was Full Blackfoot and had some signs that she could be Asian as some Native American do have Asian feature. But I've got ties to The MayFlower as well. I've got both Patriot and Loyalist from the Revolutionary war. Both Union and Conferdarte from the Civil War. (though my Conferate link was he was forced to fight for the south or he was be killed.) Have ties to Andersonville with someone escaping 3 times with broken bones and feet. I mean i come from some very proud and subborn roots.
I am determined to find my ancestry as soon as I can. I’m 54 and have always wanted to know plus I’d love to leave that information for my 29 yr old daughter and possible future grandchildren ❤
You really should do it, it's very easy now because you can find most records online. When I started mine, back in 1970, you had to spend a lot of time driving from town to town and visiting court houses and libraries and historical societies, and spending hours and hours scouring through old records, and maybe make several trips to each one to find the things we were looking for. And the DNA tests will give you lots of leads and clues. I will warn you, though, most of the people who match your DNA will not communicate with you, but just going thru their online trees and their other matches is a big help.
I’m a little weirded out by people being angry for having white ancestry. Put the hate out of your hearts people.
You don't understand the racial history of this country then. "Race" is a "social construct", invented by whites.. Africans were, and to some, still are, considered to be only 3/5 human. White people created the 'N-word'. You can find that history right here on UA-cam.
That why everyone needs to do one
I wish you would include the names of the people you’re talking to - I know some of them, but a lot of them I don’t know who they are - I mean they look familiar but I can’t quite place them! Please please please say who you’re talking to!
I would love doing this... but probably it cost more than I can pay😢

For hundreds of years the Swedish provinces of Scania, Blekinge and Halland were actually part of Denmark.
@@andyleighton6969 wow, the history that flows from this show is incredible.

Imagine if I, as a white skinned man, found out I was part black, and reacted with disgust and hatred. IMAGINE
It IS amazing. You go from knowing nothing of your family, to finding so much you cannot take it all in at once.
Thanks so much for stopping by to share this with us, Debra! 💚
1:03 her response makes me sad 😢 it’s ok to be 1/3 white.
Sure but not when it was the product of 🍇🍇🍇🍇🍇
So, why is it, that the black lady said take it back about being 1/3 white? If the white lady's would had said take it back about being black, there would have been an outrage.
If you think about how the 'white' got there for a lot of Black people in the new world the story is oftentimes not a good one. Lots of these relationships were not consensual, so you would feel torn. Also you know exactly why if the shoe was on the other foot why there would be outrage.
@@hickyxnicky411 point is......be proud to be white if that's what you are. Be proud to be black if that's what you are. Have a great day.

This is very wholesome.
Thanks for stopping by, Heruka! We are thrilled you had enjoyed this episode of the show!
I wish Americans wouldn't be so obsessed with race and instead realize how awesome their ancestry is.
It's complicated for African Americans to think about just how they may have gotten any European ancestry. People in the comments section need to give Gail King a break.
Wow - Gayle King appeared to show her true colors in more ways than two in this spot.
She wasn’t being serious dude.
There is serious in joking.
You dont know much about black history in the US obvi!
@@Notturnoiryou obviously don’t either. 😂
Why is it ok to have a negative response to having white ancestry? Imagine it the other way around.
History - have to love - cannot change it.
I mean, avout Scarlet it ahouldn't be a big suprise. If the name was danish it would be Johansen but in swedish Johansson. She even got the double "s" which americans don't typically have.
Gale King you’re 1/3 white… no take that back. Excuse me? My husband and I have taken Ancestry DNA and we were excited to see how multiracial we are. If you haven’t taken the test yet do it, it’s amazing. ❤
My thoughts too on her reaction. I guess that tells us all we need to know about how things are going.
yeah it's not cute...i mean look at yourself gail
Well good for you and your husband
she's clearly being facetious
@@dallassukerkin6878do you think it’s surprising that the immediate reaction a black person would have to finding out they’re a 1/3 white is shock and denial? Are you unaware of history?
Gale is hilarious lol
What jumped out to me was the ones who discovered that they had white DNA. Were mortified and almost angry at the idea and then the outwardly happy hysteria that others had because there's either black or native Indian DNA. Seemed for myself really sad pathetic and very damaging for our society
The Korean/Japanese confusion is very understandable. When Japan ruled Korea, its residents were considered Japanese. When the ROK hosted the Olympics, a "Japanese" marathoner who was actually Korean lit the flame. The crowd roared at the recognition of the man's true ancestry.
You can see that in everybody
My ancestors from all over the place LOL and I'm proud of it. Not only Africa but Asia and Europe too
Gail King's response was disturbing to say the least.
No it wasn't. Go cry and be sensitive somewhere else.
No it wasn’t.

@@carrington2949 you might want to take your own advice there, Bud 🤣

Ty Burrell. He was on the show Modern Family
i still dont understand how this works if every area is changing so much like how do you pick a time to use as the indicator or pick a group to use as the genetic indicator of a region idk
That's exactly the issue. There's no 100% sure way of testing these things, and it won't ever be completely accurate. All DNA tests have different libraries to base their results on, and therefore the percentages will be different depending on which one you get.
@@thespankmyfrank Yeah, how long have we been collecting those libraries? They are very young data sets, I would have to imagine, as we only recently had the capabilities to reliably collect DNA. Even more recently, we have been able to parse through it on such an international level. To my layman eyes, it seems all we can do is find people who are most similar, which isn't that affirming of the idea of race? Like your dna cant say anything about your culture so its not like oh see ur irish no its just oh see you are most closely matched to this group of people.
Hi, Zach. We can understand that you'd have many questions about how the DNA is determined and what it can really tell you. We do have some scientific papers you may enjoy reading.

I don’t like these clip show clips. It feels like spoiler clips. Though this one was nice because it had a theme: you never know when the “us” and “them” you think you are or aren’t apart of isn’t totally true. So let’s be kind to everyone.
My father was Creole and my mother was part Indian and her family did the Ancestry and she was from Arkansas. 3rd generation on my ggg grandmother's side and they live on a reservation.
Second 68: "i´m one third black - take that back!" Is what I´m quietly saying without pride
This just goes to show that we are all people. And if you are white and have a grudge against another race, for all you know one of your ancestors was that race and fought for everything you have today.
If you are white….same if you’re black, orange or indigo. That’s not a one size fit all statement you know..
@@joesmith5247
Obviously Joe.
@@Daron7181 is it obvious tho? Why keep including color at all? Its irrelevant.
I think it's because we assume that only white people have a problem with other races. So that's the general assumption. However in the last 10 years we have learned all too well that everybody has a problem with everybody else. Maybe more people should take these tests and realize you're a part of everybody else, so get over yourself. Wouldn't that be a great step forward for humanity?
Of all the sad incoherent derp on the internet this is the most incoherent.
PHILLLLLLL
Why are some of these celebrities ashamed to have European ancestry? I find that disturbing.
It was literally just the one girl and she's a middle aged woman being told for the first time in in her life that she's a third white. Not just an ancestor, an entire third. No one is gonna be happy having that monkey wrench thrown in their identity at that age. Look up "John Hurt finds out he isn't Irish."

We are All Human Beings.
These lineage 's go back so far,it doesn't matter! Lol😂
We were always told we had Native American ancestry, but the DNA test said the relative in question had to be Spanish (she dumped my great-grandfather and his brother at someone else's house to let them do the raising).

Can u imagine a white person being told that their 30% black and they respond take that back?
She is allowed to feel how she feels. I'm sure its more to do with how Slave owners raped black women back then, so she has a reason to feel that.
I don’t have to imagine it. It’s been done. White passing people in the past killed themselves or killed by other whites over it. Many took the secret to their graves.

It is not surprising to black people either. The only thing that I ask is was it a positive union in the family tree? Was it consensual? Was the relationship respected? Just don’t tell people that you have a white ancestor and they owned slaves. That means the slaves were your ancestors from the white relative who kept his children as slaves. 🤣🤣🤣

No wonder I'm so restless and want to be moving home regularly
There's a major difference between being magyar or cigány...
That's not how ancestry works but okay.
Who is that in the thumbnail?
Once people were ashamed of being Native American or black, but now they get so excited. It's weird, I've always been proud of both my Native American and Spaniard blood. America is called a melting pot for a reason. In Mexico, being called Indian is an insult. I guess people now want to embrace thier Native American and Black ancestors.
Phil: does that mean i can use the "N" word now?
For those who don’t get why Gayle had that reaction: for people of color, in this case a black person who is descended from enslaved black people, that white percentage isn’t just fun trivia it holds a lot of historical trauma. It brings up a lot of complicated emotions. Her ancestor could’ve been raped while in bondage, is she supposed to celebrate that? If it’s more recent then that may not be the case but there’s more processing of that info that we go through than our white peers. It’s all fun for you when you find out your part whatever because you don’t have the weight of your ancestors being oppressed, enslaved and dehumanized. The context of how that dna got there is different for you.
Have a bit more compassion and try to look at things from outside of your perspective rather than making judgmental assumptions.
So you believe that the sins of ones ancestors should mark them forever? Even though their actions were not new, but had been accepted for thousands of years?
@@reginalemaster9726 You don't understand the racial history of this country then. "Race" is a "social construct", invented by whites.. Africans were, and to some, still are, considered to be only 3/5 human. White people created the 'N-word'. You can find that history right here on UA-cam.
Careful, I took a DNA test and learned the man who raised me was not my father, but an Ashkenazi from northern Europe,a bit of a shock that was. They're all deceased now, so no more answers.😍😆
When will people will realize that we are all brothers and sisters !
The 4th guy in a way wasn't really lying about being 1/4 Asian he just got the wrong one.
And Fred Armisen's Korean decendent was really cool. He was a dancer and there is a museum dedicated to him in Japan Kuni Institute of Creative Dance
@@KristineMaitland Looking back on his Asian roots with his grandfather who was Korean and why Fred thought he Japanese. His grandfather took a Japanese name to protect himself as when he was a high school student in Japan The Japanese massacued anyone they thought was Korean and Chinese and even killed some Japanese just because they thought they looked Korean. in 1923.
So glad that Fred was able to find a lost part of his history.
Who is the woman?? in green cap??
I mean, just the last name of Scarlett screams Sweden. My side is the opposite. I have a very Swedish last name but we are all from USA. Mostly Buffalo, New York.
We are all mixed and it only takes a couple generations to change skin color.
One thing you said: the elders who have all that information are dead. I don't want that to be mi kids story 😔
Wow some have real issues with having european white. Other way round and there would be outcry
It's not weird to not want to have the DNA of your people's enslavers.
That's because the European DNA was acquired in a horrible way and not from love during slavery 😢
@@reedthis Exactly!
@reedthis not always. According to some of the shows, blacks and whites married. Some as far back as colonial times. Even bought farms together. It was NOT easy in the South where it was illegal.😢
@@pkmcnett5649 That one alien abductee interracial couple were unusual even in 60s or whatever it was.
I love the way they hate being told they have white ancestry, but how they love it when they are told they have black ancestry. Gives me a warm fuzzy feeling.
I noticed that. What a laugh.
I love the way you watched this whole video and then proceeded to lie about it and make exaggerated claims. Gives me a a feeling of deja vu.
This just really goes to show all the different kinds of people we can make just by two different races combining, no matter how crazy that race or ethnicity is
It’s almost like we’re all human beings or something. 🤔
@@Daron7181 I know we’re human beings, I was saying this goes to show just how crazy the possibilities are with reproduction with us humans
@@Daron7181Only to white people. 😂😂😂
