Multi Regionalism was likely never supported by the molecular data.

#1.  That's a gross misunderstanding & misrepresentation of this so
called "Molecular Data."
Supposedly, absent any strangely beneficial genes you may have, even
with descendants the "Molecular Data" would completely lose you within
a thousand years!
#2.  The so called "Molecular Data" is racist. It's far more clear in
Asia than in Europe, for example, where it may be easier to image by
another name:  Regional Continuity.
The overly dogmatic types can't accept "Multi Regionalism" but you
can often grasp "Regional Continuity."
Australian aboriginals, for example, remained remarkably consistent
even when their DNA was completely swamped by new arrivals, including
the loss of the LM3 insert or Chromosome 11 insert.

  The first isozyme and blood group data that started to accumulate after the 1950's indicated that Europeans, Asians and Africans were closely related and that Native Americans came from Asia.

You just switched from human ORIGINS to PRESENT DAY human dispersal.
Those are two EXTREMELY DIFFERENT subjects.
