This series was one of the best and most interesting I have ever seen. Would that it would happen to us Mexican Americans. Marge:)

DNA testing advances

Joseph,
 
The show is called African American Lives and it will be shown again on
February 12 at 1:00 am PST.  Most of their programs are available on video
from their PBS.org store.  Our local PBS channel 9 in my area has a store
in Seattle.

there is a DNA testing that they say can tell you what part of
Africa you came from. . .I don't know to much about it other than what they
claim:

if
you find out when that show will be on next or if its available via
Blockbuster or someplace let us know. I'd like to see it as I share the same
blood as you, well you never know, at least the same as that coming from the
same continent.

Joseph,
 
I think I had asked them to e-mail me the records since I couldn't navigate
well enough to find them on my own, and they would only fax them or mail
them.

Joseph,

Here is another ancestor of mine.  I had trouble finding him
because by the 1700s they were spelling it Marcelino Suriano and his
descendants had turned into mulatos in Salitrillo.   
 
I remember that when I tried to get some records from Seville, they
would only send it to me if I had a fax machine.  I don't have one, but
that would have been neat to get them that way and not wait so long for the
snail-mail.

got ready to order from them once and don't remember them wanting to do it

This didn't go through the first time....I am resending it....
 
Hi Linda,
 
I also watched that show.  I found it was much easier to understand
and follow than what is currently "out there".  Relating to the show's
discussion on Angola, it said that one out of every 4 African Americans were
believed to be from that area.  For those of you that didn't get to watch
the show, here is a clip of it:
 
I might have mentioned that I have done some research on the African
Diaspora, in particular throughout Latin America.  While I wished I could
have done much more research, and I am by no means an expert, I can share
this:  Spain was very much involved in the slave trade as were the British,
Dutch, and Portuguese and to a lessor extent the French.
 
Even though Spain and England agreed to stop the slave trading NORTH OF THE
EQUATOR in the early 1800's, they continued exporting slaves south of equator
for decades later.So, there were waves of

once and don't remember them wanting to do it via fax only. I thought
they had options for mailing copies and mailing film and yes it was at
a price that had to be in Euros only,

Michoacan  I was very interested in what they had to say.  They shared 
the fact that the Portuguese controlled the slave trade and that in 
the time frame I'm looking at, mid 1600's the odds are the slaves were 
from Angola. They shared the major advancments they are making daily
