Race is definitely socially constructed. The biological traits are there but it’s definitely socially constructed.

For the same reason golf, NASCAR, bobsledding, and tennis are mostly white, and I’m sure it’s for the same reason the greatest Martial Arts legends are Asian, but of course people like you never ask this question.

Why is this a “sad” thing?
But there are plenty of rich white athletes sweetheart, much more than you think, but for some reason people like you only like to focus the NBA and NFL.

And your focus on the greatest runners seems interesting, yet while ignoring the greatest powerlifters. Why aren’t you mentioning them?

Whites and Asians have done well building societies? Maybe for the past 200 or 300 years but certainly not for the entirety of human history.

Why were you shocked? What language did you think he should speak?

china and india were the dominant civilizations throughout most of history. the last 200 years were the exception, when western countries such as the UK/US (post industrialization era) became global superpowers.

Being in a perpetual state of warfare benefits us with having leading edge technology. I work in Defense and Space, on Defense, Commerical, and NASA programs. Gains in one program almost always benefit the other.

Never heard of the Roman Empire? Or Egyptian Empire?

The right questions would be if there was no Rome and Greece, where would we be? What if there were no European Renaissance? What if there were no Christopher Columbus?

Response: There isn't.........they ripped down his statue....
