Of course I grew up on the beach with a bunch of surfers. I can’t remember seeing a single Black surfer ever. Of course, there were next to no Blacks at the school. But it’s just not a sport that Blacks got into for whatever reason. Few Blacks live near the beach, so that may have something to do with it.
Racists say that Blacks can’t swim, and the reason is genetic. Others say that Blacks come from Africa where swimming areas are full of dangerous creatures, so they don’t like to swim. Others say that it costs money to swim these days as Whites have private pools and pools in their backyards and few Blacks do.
The latter two arguments seem to make more sense. I am dubious that Blacks have some genetic inability to swim well, but I suppose it’s possible.
Anyone?
