This is more than genealogy.
It’s about reclaiming the courage, resilience, and strength of those who came before us
—and using those lessons to shape a healthier, more empowered future. Understanding our roots provides vital insights into hereditary health conditions, especially those disproportionately affecting African Americans. Knowledge builds resilience.
