This video relates to my human geography class because it relates to ethnicity. I think this video is amazing because it shows a group of people who all look different and think they're of different ethnicity's but when given the results some turned out to be a significant percentage of ethnicity's they despised. In the end it shows that we are all a mixture of everything and there is no single ethnicity, and i like the idea of people realizing that we are all different from each other so in a sense, we are all the same.

The video "The DNA Journey" is about a group of people that talk about what they think there DNA is and what race they do not think they would like being. They got there DNA back and they were not what the thought they were some were even the race they thought they would not like being. This relates to what we are learning in world cultural geography because we are talking about race and religion right now. My opinion on this video is that i thought it was very neat how they found out the race they were and never knew that.

I absolutely love this video. It really represents different ethnicities and races that people didn't even know that they were. In class, we talk about racism, and how people think that other ethnic groups aren't better than theirs. And, it relates well with the people's feelings on other races.
