What if your DNA could reconnect you to a country that once lost you?

In this video, I unpack Benin’s groundbreaking 2024 citizenship-by-ancestry law — a new initiative that grants citizenship to descendants of enslaved Africans across the Americas. This is not citizenship by naturalization, investment, or relocation — it’s citizenship by acknowledgment.

We explore:
— Who qualifies under this new law
— How the application process works (including DNA testing)
— The significance of ECOWAS mobility
— Why this matters for the Black diaspora
