Stupid argument since it's got more to do with culture than race. Take a look at sports outside America.

There are obviously exceptions to the rule, but in general the black race has more speed, higher vertical leaps, are more acrobatic/agile, and have a lower percentage of bodyfat than white people.


I didn't think this was even debatable anymore.

Makes me wonder why true blacks, those of africa, aren't consistently the fasted sprinters in the world. Instead these "crossbreeds" from the New World are consistently the best. The is also ignoring the fact that many africans have different, regional builds. Some areas they tend to be bigger, and smaller in others. Most of the africans in the Americas are decended from those in sub-sarahan Africa, which, coincidently, is also where the african sprinters tend to come from. Sounds to me as if it is more regional/cultural than genetic.

I haven't actually read any evidence to support that the performance is actually because of "racial" genetics and just not cultural/social differences. The concept of race itself might not be accurate anyway. It's just not as clear-cut as it used to seem now we can study genetics. Often a person is actually genetically more like another "race" than their own, and there is quite a bit of variance with the "races" that perhaps "race" itself does not matter. There is the suggestion that race is almost insignificant apart from visual appearance.
