Dark history of transatlantic slavery traced through DNA study



For instance, most Americans of African descent have roots in Angola and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, in line with the major slave route.
For example, DNA from one African region may be under-represented in the US because so many slaves from there died of malaria on American plantations.

The grim results from a paper, which appeared in the American Journal of Human Genetics, compiled genetic data from 50,000 consenting research participants from both sides of the Atlantic.

Austin, Texas, joins growing number of U.S. cities in declaring racism a 'public health crisis'


On Wednesday, the City Council in Austin, Texas, passed a resolution declaring that racism is a “public health crisis.”

Citing racial disparities in the rates of poverty, unemployment, homeownership and arrest, the Austin measure echoes the language of resolutions passed in other cities around the country. According to tracking by the American Public Health Association (APHA), dozens of cities and counties have made similar declarations over the past two months.
