DNA, Roots Television & Black Sheep

I've been a neglectful blogger this past week, so here's a little catch up -- a radio interview I did for NPR, a podcast with the Genealogy Guys, and a fun article on black sheep that includes Rhonda McClure, Leland Meitzler and yours truly. This last one sure contradicts that genealogy-as-bunk article from the Smithsonian Magazine that's getting so much play. Apparently, the writer still thinks we're after illustrious roots -- very 1927 of him.

-- NPR's Talk of the Nation: Putting the "Genes" Back in Genealogy

-- Genealogy Guys podcast -- an interview with Drew Smith about: Roots Television

-- Black sheep, good sheep in the Globe and Mail

Megan - loved the Science Friday show! You may be interested to check out a 3D Human Y chromosome on the web at www.panvia.us - zoom in and the genes labels appear. This is used to identify the location of search sequences on the Y chromosome.
