[QUOTE]Originally posted by Calypso: [QB] Dr. Winters highlighted this portion of study cited: [QUOTE]That is to say, despite the intensive mestizaje (genetic “mixture”) that has characterized our region over the centuries, we Caribbeans have mtDNAs that have maintained their original identity and that can be identified as African, Indian, or Caucasian . Their identity depends upon the women in our genetic tree at the end of the strictly maternal ancestral line. If this great-great-great grandmother were indigenous, then the corresponding Caribbean would have an indigenous mtDNA. He or she would have inherited it intact from that great-great-great grandmother who lived through those terrible first years of the colonization by means of his or her great-great grandmothers, great grandmothers, and maternal grandmother. [/QUOTE]Dr. Winters how does this help you? Other than the dubious use of the word "caucasian" the highlighted passage above says that a group of people, who we know may look very similar, continue to carry the mtdna of their maternal ancestry - from different parts of the world. This seriously undermines your position regarding race. [/QB][/QUOTE]
