Race is a social construct. Some trace modern 'race' categorization back to 1400 Spanish era. Truth is there was not a great concept of 'race' before this although humans have been categorizing things for thousands of years. Many cities in northern Africa were mixed until Spanish spread their love. Culture has a larger impact on the person than social fiction race or biological traits and behaviors.
I do agree there are deep traits and behaviors passed down to your kin, but in aggregate it's a wash. Occasionally there will be an outlier like Michael Jordan, Hafthor, Pudzianowski, Fedor, Tyson, but those are atypical and still required cultured training.
Different races of people developed because the world was so separated before modern technology, they evolved differently based on their geographical location.
This response will get you a passing grade in community college, but it is ridiculous in the real world. There are real, physical differences between races.

Nope, I neither hate myself nor others. I see the current situation as it is. I am not better than anyone else due to my origin only but neither are they better than me for the same reason. Improvise, adapt and overcome! :D
You seem to be a person of the soon to be in past. About the situation of African americans in the US which a US specific issue not related to the rest of the world. First of all, nothing about afroamericans is African! They can't speak the language, they wouldn't survive there, they don't share anything with modern day Africans except for genes. Second, your ancestors exploited, descriminated against them so in order to survive their American subculture ( a note, not African but American) developed in a way under those circumstances. Of course, you'd find most criminals and unlawful people there. How would your complaining about them better the situation in any way? What is your solution? To exterminate them all? The most you can do is to create incentives for them to leave their subculture and join the main American culture. And nope, you'd need at least 3-4 generations for betterment. Ask Cubans, they don't seem to have any race issues whether white or not, the problem is American.
Btw, I prefer a bushman's wisdom to your logical fallacies. In the end of the world situation a bushman would be more useful than a pseudointellectual "causian" who doesn't even know where Caucasus is geographically located :lol:
Sounds like America hating gobbledygook. Another B- community college response. Maybe score you a date with an ultra liberal black girl from your class too.
