Li Kyle: How would you feel if one day you found out that your family lineage came from five different countries? This is what happened to Li Kyle. He is a football player of African descent, his father was a high school basketball coach, and his athletic genes are paternal.
However, Li Kyle's basketball IQ comes from the maternal line. It seems that his family background is quite complicated. Let's start with Li Kyle's paternal line. He has two older brothers and two older sisters, both of whom are involved in sports.
This means that the athletic gene is well passed on in his family, paving the way for him to become a professional NBA player in the future. However, Lee Kyle's maternal line also has a surprising pedigree. His maternal great-grandfather, Li Chongxin, came from Gumu Village, Bao'an, Shenzhen, China.
At the end of the 19th century, Li Chongxin and his brother Tom came to Jamaica on a cruise ship. Since then, he has been writing letters and sending money to their hometown in Shenzhen, which has become an important clue for Li Kaier's journey to find his roots. Li Kyle's mother's search for relatives is also interesting. His maternal great-grandmother, Elheta, was a white woman of English descent.
This means that Li Kyle has British, American, African, Jamaican and Chinese ancestry. In fact, he could have represented any of these countries in the World Cup, but he chose to return to China and follow in the footsteps of his maternal great-grandfather to find his roots. Next, let's turn to Lee Kyle's grandfather, George.
He has an Asian face, but it's not certain he's from China. George was born in New York in 1926 and married Lee Kyle's grandmother, Miriam, in 1953. As he grew older, George's appearance began to take on European and American characteristics, suggesting that he may also be a half-breed.
George's mother was a black man of African descent, which means George may have Asian, African, and Jamaican ancestry. Through the presentation of these family maps, we can conclude that Li Kyle's family lineage is very complex. The paternal line inherits sports genes, while the maternal line has a multi-national line.
This also allows us to speculate that Li Kyle's Chinese ancestry may not be only 1/8, but may reach 1/4. Li Kyle will make his final warm-up match before the World Cup in Shenzhen at 19:30 pm on August 20. This will be his debut in China, and his family will travel to Shenzhen to witness this historic moment.
This competition is not only a competition, but also an important node on the road to finding roots in a century. Through this story, we can see the power of bloodline, which is not only a kind of inheritance, but also the inheritance and connection of a culture.
No matter where we come from, no matter how complex our family backgrounds are, we can find our identity and sense of belonging through our root-finding journey. Lee Kyle's story is an inspiring example of how our family history can be our driving force.
Finally, I would like to ask the reader a question: have you ever experienced a journey similar to Li Kyle's roots? What drives you to look for your family history? Please share your views and experiences in the comments section.
