I was watching the Olympics this evening. I know you’re all shocked! Anyway the BBC did a short documentary on whether White men or Black men are naturally faster. The jury was basically out even though 81 out of 82 athletes to break 10:00 sec have been black.
An interesting point that was touched upon & one I’d never thought of before was the effect of the slave trade. Of the thousands or millions (I’m not sure on the numbers) of slaves, who were forced to make the horrific journey from Africa to America, many died. This affect on genealogy was that only the strongest survived. Leading to the descendants of those who survived to be a product of a strengthened gene pool. Some would use this as an example of Darwin’s survival of the fittest, but I don’t want this to be any kind of attack on religion.
Anyway I just want to share this as I found it really interesting & have wondered a lot to myself why the best sprinters do appear to be black.
The Jury won’t be to keen to make a decision because of the possible backlash that can suddenly appear from an innocent comment-These day’s it’s survival of the not so dumb.Such a hard state of affair’s these day’s i’m sorry to say.
Yeah it’s much like a hot potato & any generalising comment is jumped upon by the PC Brigade these days.
I am amazed they are even allowed to bring this into it. Very soon, they will suggest that they somehow did us blacks a favour by enslaving and/or colonialising us. Blacks are better than whites at athletics and in so many other things too, get used to it
No it wasn’t done in a negative way & like I said they left it completely open & said genealogy played only a small factor. Who do you mean by they? I don’t believe blacks or whites are better in athletics. There so many different disciplines. Care to expand on what the other things are you allude to?
