How so?

If so then why do certain people always cluster genetically with the population or better the race they come form.

To give an example, no matter how you genetically cluster its the phenotypes in Africa tht are diverse. As far as genotypes some Africans are closer to the hypothetical root of humanity like Pygmies and San while other Africans are distant, nearly as distant from the latter Pygmies and San as they are Europeans. Don't get fooled by PCAs, they don't prove race.
