Meanwhile, the glorious Naomi Campbell channels humanity’s oldest African origins and self-adornment using beads, shells and hair collages made of twigs, real flowers, leaves and even stones and butterflies that honor the deep ties between humans and nature.

Transit In and Out of Africa Was Not a One-Way Ticket

No discovery has unseated the region of Lake Turkana, which includes the Omo Valley of southern Ethiopia and the Great Rift Valley in Kenya as the route humans took out of Africa into the Levant.

AOC readers understand the attempts by white nationalists to press the case for a superior group of humans who came from the north, eventually reaching the Levant themselves.

Anne has a personal mission to follow this argument very closely. Steve Bannon and Peter Hegseth may cling tightly to the theory, but scientists have thrown the white men came fron the Nordic north theory into the trash and slammed the door.

What we do know in recent years is that the transit in and out of Africa was far more frequent among early humans — often driven by climate change. This creates a tableau for multiple migrations and humans not always following the same geographical routes out of Africa.

It’s now believed that early humans were much more migratory across the world — not only in and out of Africa — with severe climate changes being a major driver of these migrations.

African DNA DOES Include Neanderthal Genes

The single greatest DNA discovery that cuts the legs off the second group of humans — more white and coming from the north — theory is very recent and highly improved DNA analysis among Africans.

The white nationalist argument was that African DNA did not exhibit this contact with Neanderthals or even white people carrying the DNA signature back to Africa. Today, no one is arguing that Neanderthals set up shop in Africa. But their genetic history had frequent contact with early Africans, just as they did with early humans coming from the north.

What’s critical is this discovery slams the door shut of a separate group of really smart white people coming from the north and mixing with Neanderthals, who were not ‘contaminated’ by contact with Africans. It’s a viscious, ignorant lie — and it has penetrated MAGA deeply.

Onto Jews and Palestinians

The second false argument that has been dispelled in the last five years is unsettling to some AOC readers. I fought deeply during the 2024 presidential election — at all hours of the night — trying to interact with progressives and Palestinians who argue that they share no DNA with Jews.

Palestinian activists insisted that Jews had no rights to the land of Israel and shared no DNA with Palestinians and their decendants. Wrong!
