  Regarding the DNA test used by Dr.Gates and Emmitt Smith. It was the
  Admixture test and to my knowledge is not available via FamilyTreeDNA but
  through another source (?perhaps University of Pennsylvania?).
  The Admixture test reveals the racial profile of the person tested. Quite
  Expensive!!!

  If this test were available at a reasonable price, I would do it.
