I will agree with you for somali maternal discussion cause we have a variety of Mtdna, but for Y-DNA, A is uncommon, meaning its recently arrived through slave trade, so it is foreign in origin. Personally, I accept them as somali as it only takes 4 to 5 generation to be fully somali, but their ancient ancestor is from a foreign origin and there is nothing shame in that,That’s not true. Ethnicity isn’t defined by Y-DNA. To add to that, many more lineages that were present then have now gone extinct. Just because they are not represented or very low in number doesn’t mean they are of foreign origins. Haplogroup A is found throughout all of the horn at different percentages. It just happens that Somalis have the least of it.
and some e-m35 descended lineages found in some of us are not native too.
Whats the difference between somali banadiri scoring 40-90% somali with haplogroup J, E-M81/E-m215 and a somali scoring 95-99% somali with foreign haplogroup like A or E1b1a. If we accept banadiri to be minority clan with foreign origin why treat anyone else different ? This is double standards.
