National Geographic has sponsors a fascinating genetic search which maps an atlas of the human journey.
Most folks understand we are a huge human family, we're all at least 40th cousins. In the United States, genetic analysis can reveal amazing connections to the world. I have participated in researching my genetic past, and truly feel a girl of the world.

Now is the time we embrace our family. We all started in Africa and took a hike from there.

Check out this site from the Atlas of the Human Journey at Nat Geo.
