Last month, veterinarians and elephant managers at Disney's Animal Kingdom were deeply saddened after they determined that another pregnant African elephant named Robin lost her calf in the womb. Robin was in labor off and on for two days, and many unsuccessful attempts were made to induce productive labor until it was concluded that the calf had died. One other elephant at Disney's Animal Kingdom is pregnant and is expected to give birth next summer.

In 1910, about 90% of African Americans lived in the South, but large numbers began migrating north looking for better job opportunities and living conditions, and to escape Jim Crow laws and racial violence. The Great Migration, as it was called, spanned the 1890s to the 1970s. From 1916 through the 1960s, more than 6 million black people moved north. But in the 1970s and 1980s, that trend reversed, with more African Americans moving south to the Sunbelt than leaving it.

Genetic results of AfricanDNA customers will be compared with the database of Family Tree DNA, the most extensive comparative database of DNA test results in the world, including African results provided by leading anthropologists worldwide. These comparisons will point many AfricanDNA clients toward their African origins. A percentage of all profits will be donated to the Inkwell Foundation, dedicated to reforming the teaching of science and history in inner city schools using genetic and genealogical ancestry tracing.
