DNA tests can challenge your notions of ethnicity and family history

Posted: Published on January 26th, 2015

I'm a one-man melting pot. Published Jan. 26, 2015 at 9:01 a.m. The numbers are tiny, but in a way, they're exactly what I was hoping for when I had my DNA tested by AncestryDNA. You know, that moment when Henry Louis Gates Jr. shocks the famous guest on "Finding Your Roots" with unexpected data. When my results arrived, there was no major surprise. This Italian-, German-, English-American boy is the proud owner of 98 percent "European" chromosomal goodness. But nestled within that statistic is three percent European Jewish (doesn't say whether Sephardic or Ashkenazy). The remaining two percent? Middle Eastern! Most people want to know why I tested myself and I don't really have an answer beyond plain ol' curiosity. I climbed the mountain because it was there and to see what was on the other side. And, says Christine Kenneally, author of "The Invisible History of the Human Race: How DNA and History Shape Our Identities and Our Futures," that hazy expectation is pretty common among folks who take the test, which is offered by a handful of companies. "Usually it's a mix of questions about ancestry and health," she says. "Many people I spoke to were actually … Continue reading →

A Chemistry Lesson That Indians Cant Hope to Miss: Opening Line

Posted: Published on January 26th, 2015

Its the bromance of the year so far. There was the hug on the tarmac. There was the walk in the garden. There was tea on the lawn. Then it was on to the banquet, where U.S. President Barack Obama praised Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi as a style icon. His host paid tribute to the personal chemistry he enjoys with Barack. In case you hadnt heard, Obama and Modi are friends. Modi was once persona non grata in the U.S., denied a visa in 2005 for his alleged failure to control religious violence three years earlier that killed almost 1,000 Muslims in his home state of Gujarat, where he was chief minister. How times change. No one has been left in any doubt that those rocky days are past and relations between the U.S. and India have entered a New Era of Friendship. If the saturation live television coverage wasnt enough, Obama fans in India could follow live blogs of the event -- including the evening banquet -- at India Today, NDTV or Zee News, among others. The Hindustan Times wrote of the crackling chemistry between the two leaders. Chemistry between PM Modi and Obama on display for the … Continue reading →
