What do you guys think the future of Somali Genetics will look like? As we continue to move to other countries and more people mix or as other populations move to Somalia or the increase of other non Somalis in Somalia and mix with our people ( The increase of Somali Bantus and migrants like Arabs, Oromos, etc ) I would imagine as the country develops more people will move there from other places although we are still very far from this point.
Personally I wouldn't mind Somalis mixing with other horn African Populations like Habesha's and Cushitic people, but I get a little nervous when other groups get in the mix although I know this is an inevitability that is out of our hands. This question also translates to other groups because of globalization.
What would this translate to in terms of culture? Would there be regional variations of Somali culture due to the presence of of different influences in different regions. Im not a fan of Arabization or the spread of bantu/west african focused Afrocentrism, but I feel like these two picture encapsulate what the future of Somalis might look like. Torn between two opposing poles of two nonsensical Ideas.
