Sen. Elizabeth Warren's campaign is out this morning with a DNA test that shows Warren does have Native American ancestry. It comes after years of accusations that Warren faked her heritage in order to further her career.

In a campaign video, she talks with a Stanford genetics expert who performed the test.

Jeff Berry, a political science professor at Tufts University and WBUR political analyst, talks to Morning Edition about it.

This segment aired on October 15, 2018.
