On a single day on a single street, with the DNA of just a couple of hundred random people, National Geographic Channel sets out to trace the ancestral footsteps of all humanity. The Human Family Tree explains the public participation aspect of Genographic and binds together much of the work the project has done since its launch. Narrated by Kevin Bacon (subject of a pop culture trivia game based on the concept of "six degrees of separation"), we travel to one of the most diverse corners of the globe― Queens, N.Y. ― to demonstrate how we all share common ancestors who embarked on very different journeys. The neighbors featured in The Human Family Tree find out that their connections go much deeper than a common ZIP code.
