If anyone doesn't know, Maya Rudolph is also the daughter of the late Minnie Riperton, who lost her life to breast cancer at age 31 when Maya was about 7. Minnie Riperton was a singer, with a five octave range, best known for the song "Lovin' You" from 1975.

In college, I learned from my dad that my paternal grandfather was supposed to fight in the Battle of Okinawa (one of the bloodiest battles of WWII) but broke his foot before getting deployed, so instead he was an army mechanic in Berlin who helped to rebuild a village that was decimated by the Nazis. It’s insane to think I owe my entire existence to a guy breaking his foot in the 1940s.

My maternal great grandfather was Scottish and my maternal great grandmother was black. My maternal great grandfather had to pretend to be biracial in order to marry my great grandmother. He changed all his legal documents from white to “mulatto”. Race switching was pretty common for interracial couples to circumvent the laws against mixed marriages.

Edward Norton’s ancestor being Pocahontas is also pretty awful. Her life was harsh, short, and tragic. It is nothing like the Disney film. She didn’t fall for John smith and she was only 12 years old when she was kidnapped and taken to England to be in a forced marriage. He birth name was Mataoka and she was dead by 21.

What breaks my heart is that most black people can only go as far back as slavery. What I would give to know more than that.

One time in high school, we were doing a project on WW2 and some of the students decided to bring momentos relating to the war and their families. One student revealed that her grandfather was a Nazi officer, at this point I had to reveal that my grandfather fought for the Allies, but i also surprised them by revealing that he was still alive, 90yrs old at the time (2009). And i actually got to tell him that story and his face lit up with joy.

7:10 That is SUCH a classy move on the part of Dr. Gates giving Madison a briefing on what was discovered about his dad before the camera rolls.

My great-great-grandmother lost custody of her kids and tried to run with them to Canada before she was arrested for kidnapping (she got them eventually after bribing her ex, first cash for the girls then land for the boys). Thirty years later, she was arrested for illegal fortune telling for her work as a trance medium. Her appeal was unsuccessful, but did get reported by newspapers across the country because her intent was to get the appellate court to rule Spiritualism as a religion. The librarian who found about the fortune telling arrest was reluctant to tell me because she wasn’t sure how I would handle it—I thought it was an amazing detail in an incredible life.

I knew Roseanne Cash’s mother was part black. Looking at her, I have an inkling it was more than a great great grandmother, but this is an imperfect history. Historians did the best they could with what they had.

To hear that a little boy who should’ve been in kindergarten with other children; playing and enjoying life was listed under a slave registry as a 5 year old male got me. That made me break down. I can’t imagine what that would be like and to see Maya, who I think is a National Treasure, react like that I hit the “ugly cry” hard!

I'm surprised, y'all didn't include LL COOL J. His mom found out she was adopted from the show

Scarlett Johansson finding out her Jewish relatives were murdered by nazis was also heart wrenching.

Maya Rudolph's reaction to her ancestor being a slave was so heartbreaking, that I wanted to reach through the screen and comfort her.

Last year I found two half-siblings through a genealogy website - a brother and a sister. We all have the same father and different mothers. None of us knew about each other. I'm the youngest of the three of us and was raised by my parents. Both of my siblings were raised in foster care. My brother was left on the doorstep of a convent and my sister was removed from her mother because of neglect. We're all in our seventies and I will be travelling internationally to meet them in a few weeks. In the meantime I set up a video chat group and our families have all met online.

Man, that’s the thing about genealogy. You find out some out some incredible things, both good and bad. I know most people might think of genealogy as an old person’s hobby, but I really recommend getting into it. It’s fascinating seeing who you come from and piecing together their lives.

People finding out they have African ancestry is NOT disturbing 😑

I was adopted at birth and never knew my birth parents. Back in 2021 (at age 63) I took the Ancestry test and discovered my birth parents. My mother died 13 days following my birth and my father died several years ago. I had a full blood sister who also died just before I received the results. My only recommendation is to do it sooner instead of later. HOWEVER, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU WILL DISCOVER.

The Negro ancestry is visible in Miss Cash's mother. Miss Cash, your mother was a beautiful woman. Don't let ignorant people try to make you feel some type of way.
