I’m African American with roots in Glasgow, Scotland. My paternal grandmother, a mulatto, had ancestors that migrated from Scotland, to County Kerry in Ireland, to Ontario, Canada, then immigrated across the border to Michigan. Still have family in Ontario. We travel back for family reunions and to see the Scottish Highland Games. Love the bagpipe competitions.❤

I just found out my last name “Dunomes” is thought to have derived from the place name Dunoon (Dunomhainn in Gaelic), located in Argyll and Bute, Scotland, on the Firth of Clyde. Which makes me want to learn & gain knowledge on the topic so that I can know more about my families past.

@JaMarionDunomes i doubt it my friend scotland is 96 percent white there's not been much black people here wouldn't listen to most of these videos u get the odd black person through time coming but nothing massive , could possibly have a ancestor from Scotland who was white who moved to America and had kid with black woman or something like that and carried the name over so u could be mate , I done a ancestry dna test u could maybe try one of those they tell u where your bloodline comes from and are cheap to buy I done 1 and got about 98 percent scottish/Irish dna and 2 percent english but I was born in Scotland . Good luck mate all the best ...

Talk about the "black" Indians. I have noticed that 98% of African Americans largely descend from Native American ppl. Michael Jackson, James Brown, Jimi Hendrix had Native American ancestry

@@Juliaflo He chose to change his name to Douglas from a poem. He really liked Ireland and apparently it changed him and his outlook on life. He said when he went to Ireland they treated him with the same amount of respect as anyone else he also said he saw similarities' in the way African Americans were treated and the Irish how both groups were colonized and marginalized.
