Proud Partner of The Africa Channel
African Ancestry can help you discover the roots of your family tree and transform the way you define yourself.
Do you know where you are from? Where you are really from? Most Diasporans are not armed with this information. Many know that they are from Africa but have been unable to claim a specific ancestral homeland – until now!
Our history did not start with slavery. And with African Ancestry, people of African descent can finally trace their maternal and/or paternal lineages to connect their ancestry to a specific country in Africa and often to a specific African ethnic group.*
At African Ancestry, our mission is to help black families build positive and sustainable legacies for future generations to carry on, create new dialogue in our communities, and foster new enthusiasm to learn more about the continent of Africa. That's why we've partnered with The Africa Channel to spread the word about this profound experience.
Join the ranks of Oprah Winfrey, Spike Lee, Isaiah Washington, India.Arie, John Hope Bryant, Tom Joyner and others today!

It makes the perfect gift for any occasion or any age! It's also a great family project!
