After all, millions of years ago, the world was just one big African continent...

I do like that people think I'm a racist even though I said "Dumb racists" in my opening statement, Incidentally, the Native Americans apparently came over from Russia...

It wasn't one big African Continent...It was called Pangea.
But I don't think we were here when Pangea was all together...as for the "we all come from Africa," yep, it looks that way.

well when humans (homo sapiens) apprared a 200 000 - 250 000 years ago, the continents had already separated (Africa was a separate continent from Euroasia etc.), so there then started a process of migrations out of africa, that took different pathways, and correctly you see that there were two migrations into the Americas (north, central and south) before the European invasion/colonisation/settlement and accompanied slave trade that now dominates the genetic make up of most Americans.

Yes. The oldest human bones were found in Africa. No one has disputed that. Anyone with a brain know's that Africa is comprised of many different colors of people.

Yeah, absolutely! And if we didn't go by mitochondrial DNA, it would be worse -In terms of my documented ancestry I am mostly Anglo-Saxon, but with some Norwegian, a little Greek and some Celtic. I should be diced, and the appropriate bits sent back??
Prejudice on the basis of 'race' is folly without warrant. 'Dumb' doesn't begin to describe it!

If the theory that all the countries in the world were once joined, who says that the whole place was Africa? And what about people with mixed ethnicity/heritage? Where would they go? Even if all the countries were one massive country, people of mixed ethnicity would belong to two or more parts of the hypothetical country.

I don't think we ALL originated from Africa.
EDIT: Hmmm, well, I didn't know that. Learn something new everyday...
