The personal, the political, and the science of ancestry tests.
Palestinian-American cartoonist and illustrator MargueriteDabaiespat into a test-tube and sent her DNA off to the genetic testing company, 23andMe.
To her surprise the results told her somethingsignificantlydifferent to what she understood about herself and her family.
Then, two years later, 23andMe sent her an update, andthe resultsradicallychanged.
Whats going on? And, with what consequences?Is genomic science way too white?
