:stop Here?s where "white" Americans have the highest percentage of African ancestry

article found on yahoo ill sit this one out. yo L!

Many Americans who call themselves white might be surprised to find out that they have some African ancestry. Especially in the South.

In a study published in the American Journal of Human Genetics in December 2014, researchers used the ancestry data compiled by the commercial genetic testing company 23and Me to measure the percentage of African ancestry of people who self-identified as white. It turns out that self-identified white people who live in the South have the highest concentrations of African DNA.

In South Carolina and Louisiana ? the states shaded the darkest green on the map above ? researchers found that one in 20 people who called themselves white had at least 2 percent African ancestry. And in a lot of the South, about 10 percent of people who identified as white turned out to have African DNA.
