Can DNA percentages really decide who belongs in America? Some argue you need 66% Native DNA to stay, but what happens if you’re only 10% or 20%? Let’s break down the ridiculous idea of deporting people based on DNA and why identity is so much more than numbers

Come join me on a new docu-series that explores identity, racial tensions in the South during the 20th century, and the unique experiences of those who historically called Louisiana home.
My name is Danielle Romero, and all my life, I have romanticized Louisiana.
Growing up in New York, it represented a place where I could step back the sepia-toned life of my great grandmother, Lola Perot, who died before I was born.
Now, it was time to go back to Louisiana--although I had no idea what the truth would be or what questions to ask---who was Lola really? Who were we?
