🧬 The DNA Testing Myth and the Erasure of Black American Identity
Misclassified: The DNA Testing Myth and the Erasure of Black American History is a bold and necessary exploration of how Black Americans have been misled by commercial DNA tests and erased through systemic reclassification. This book uncovers what the DNA testing myth really is — a coordinated rewriting of lineage, rooted in profit and control, not truth.
Author and certified genealogist T’Malkia Zuri guides readers through the illusions of ancestry testing, revealing how Black Americans were deliberately disconnected from their true Indigenous and sovereign roots. From “African” results with no tribal specificity to biased databases that exclude Black American bloodlines, this book breaks down the flaws in the science — and the hidden agenda behind the swab.
