Reconnect with Your Roots

Over 12.5 million African men, women, and children were stolen from Africa between the years 1500 and 1820 and brought to the Western Hemisphere. Approximately, 500,000 enslaved Africans were brought to North America, and the remaining 12 million were dispersed throughout South America and the Caribbean. These African descendants make up a large portion of the African Diaspora. Today, many Africans living in the Diaspora have used DNA testing to trace their roots back to specific countries and ethnic groups in Africa.

Studies show that the majority of enslaved Africans came from just six regions or 21 countries in West and West Central Africa. Further analysis reveals that approximately 50% came from the Bight of Biafra (current day Nigeria and Cameroon) and Congo and Angola. The remaining enslaved Africans came from Sierra Leone, Liberia, Cote d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast), Senegal, The Gambia, Ghana, Togo, Benin and other countries.
