Thats because few. if any. reliable records of the centurieslong Atlantic slave trade remain to help in the search. Thats what became all too apparent to rheumatologist Dr. Paul Plotz in 1992. when "a chance occurrence" pointed his research on a rare muscle disorder to West Africa and "the greatest undocumented migration of modern times." As Haley pointed out. people have an inherent interest in knowing their heritage. Our investment in modern science. specifically the Human Genome Project. is poised not only to reveal medical truths about ourselves and our potential for health. but also to help us make that connection to our past. While some of my colleagues are focused that GINA will provide further incentives and additional opportunities for litigation against employers. they seem to forget the very real concern of individual protections.
