<p>It’s not stereotyping, it’s fact. Why is it that Asians aren’t the most prominent race in basketball? Blacks have a tendency to be taller than the average man, so it makes the sport a little easier for them to adapt to. Does this mean Asians don’t play basketball? Most, if not all, black people have dark skin. Some have light, but they are very rare, and this subject is about majorities. The worst you thing you could ever say is that you look at people as they are all the same color because that is the definition of ignorance.</p>

You need to start asking “Why?” to figure out the answer to that question, though from what I’ve read you seem to only look at the tip of an iceberg.</p>

<p>Stereotyping is saying women are bad drivers when the majority of accidents are caused by men, or saying people from the south all mate with their relatives yet the south is healthy. Things like that aren’t true, and statistics and science are used for a reason. That’s why I used the word “probably,” which indicates a majority is involved. Which race do you think dies the youngest? Once you figure out trends in things like that, further studies can be done to find cures or enhance health or to figure out what part of their culture may cause this. It’s important to acknowledge differences. (oh, and if you’re wondering, blacks die the fastest of all races)</p>

<p>It doesn’t matter. I wrote all of that assuming you were black. (And realize it still doesn’t matter). Are you really saying that if you were a Hispanic male, your life would be exactly the same?</p>
<p>Everything we do is part of our culture. Being an American will always set you apart somehow in someway from other countries. Race is the only thing, I believe, that shouldn’t be taken with a grain of salt, though THAT is arguable.</p>
