I have heard about the thing that oprah did about finding her roots, and I know that they are just matching genetics with similar ones around the world. But does it actually work if you were to do it? Cuz, I am Latino (Mestizo: Spanish and Indigenous) and I wana know what tribes my ancestors might have come from.

What part of you makes up the mitochondrial DNA?
