The human genome is the most sophisticated genome of all species. It is the most important genome of all organisms to ever be found. This genome not only holds the DNA make up of all mankind, but also holds the history of mankind. It tells of who we are, where we’ve been and how we lived our daily life. It shows us the age of the oldest human being, an African human being. From the finding of the oldest genome, we can track down the knowledge of our ancestors. This knowledge will bring us back to our lost culture and history. This will be passed down to the current and future generations to come. The human genome connects us with each other culture and with the life of our many ancestors.
I believe we as people of African descent should learn about the first people on earth, their own African ancestors. Many of us African Americans are taught that we derived from others instead of vice versa. We need to understand that man began when the first African being stepped on the face of the earth. The understanding of the human genome will surely bring back the real teachings of mankind. This will create pride among many African American children because now they know they have something that no one else has. It is something that cannot be taken away from them. It will be the beginning of something that will benefit them and their fellow children by teaching them about the past life of their own people.
