Yep. I saw German and Swedish sociological studies of minorities, that
had all the same familiar statistics despite my hope they would be
less biased. Lower rates of education & income, higher rates of drug
addiction, alcoholism, rape, violent assault, and divorce. They also
noted how the males had an ostentatious wardrobe, had trouble with
authority figures, and walked with what we'd call a 'barrio swagger'.
Only thing is, they were talking about the Saami and Gypsies, who are
just as white as I am. The diff is, that these two tribes were nomadic
hunters whereas all the other white tribes were yeoman farmers over
the course of the last 10,000 years.
Hominids have inherited complex behavior patterns the same as dogs,
livestock, and every other mammal species. Since the food supply of
yeoman farmers does not flee, they have traded faster reflexes for
other mental functions that relate to seasonal planning.
The Brits were really surprised by one African tribe that was able to
organize much better for their mutual defense. The Zulu. Who didnt run
like rabbits every time the Brits fired off a few rounds, but stood
their ground and died like brave men. The Zulu were the one tribe in
Africa that had been moving south out of the tropical zone and into
the more temperate zone of South Africa along with livestock and other
agricultural technologies. And which had already formed an advanced
civilization.
It is a racial endowment, but it not just skin color.
