Nigeria was placed second in the Miss Universe competition! Of course, I was hoping & would have been ecstatic if she was crowned the winner!https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c0j85yy5yg2o cool

Gwine do a DNA test to see my West African roots! I was good in Biology & based on my lineage (great grandparents - mom & dad), I'm putting 2 & 2 together & I think, I have at least 45% of West African blood running thru my veins! cool



PS. I would always get a good feeling when I engage with Nigerians & Ghanaians here in NYC! Btw, the South Asians as well.

In reply to sgtdjones The trickle of Dutch, I think, is insignificant...probably 10%! I'm brown skinned, if I were fair skinned like my dad, aunts & uncles, I would have claimed more!!! big grin



PS. My dad's twin sister who turned 90 on October 1st, has been in Sweden since the 60s...she acknowledged that it's when she speaks, it's then that the Swedish people know that she's not from there!
