I have noticed now for years that most all black people in America have small ears.  It's completely puzzling to me as to why?  White people have small to large ears, no pattern at all, but black people?  Always small?  Why?

Black what...? If you are referring to Human Beings please say people.....and not all black people yell racial profiling...I have an Irish accent and I get racially profiled every time I say something in public but I gave up yelling about it years ago because some people are just ignorant.

I'm Black and I speak proper English at all times unless I'm just hangin' w/ friends.  However, when it matters, and when I hear Black people speaking Ebonics -- or what I just plain call "ghetto" -- I think they are simply uneducated.  I think they're low-class and I think they reflect poorly on ALL Blacks.

They don't have too. The NBA is mostly black players.Ane the majority of them are highly talented.  Skin complex?\n I don't think so.

It has basically become main stream fashion for teenagers to dress in bagy clothing etc... just like in the 60s it was mainstream fashion to dress like a hippi, grow your hair long, and wear raggy old clothing...and depending one where you live, i would have to say its also cultural, as teens feel the need to rebel etc... so they go opposite of what the real world would expect, which is nice dressed blue collar clothing....and most of these so called "black teens" grow out of it, just like the hippi's grew out of it, and now adays i see more white ppl copying the so called "black trend" MORE than black people themselves. I mean look at eminem...hes white...but dresses no different!

Not all Black people speak like their "from da hood" so there's not such as talking Black. It's more like speaking ghetto..and it's ridiculous on anyone who isn't from the ghetto but especially White people.

Think about America as a whole. Americans think that our country is the best , therefore, AmericaNS "are the best." \n\nALso a strange part of our culture is that we call all blacks African Americans even though they could be from other places like the Carribbean or Haiti. \n\nA lot of Americans are ignnorant. You just have to brush it off.

i agree with you...to a point, but, rather, I believe it is the black people who HATE the white people; I'm a very nice, welcoming, happy person who likes EVERYONE...unless they give me a reason not to. And most often, i find the majority of black people doNOT like white people; they don't smile back--they glare. Or they just look at a white person with hatred on their face. This happens every week, at the least. It also bothers me that I live in a white upper middle class neighborhood and...suddenly, a few black people have moverd around there...i always smile at them, especially because the most often put their heads down, like they don't want to be noticed, or anyone to, i dunno, burn a cross on their lawn...i say people are people, i don't care whWHAT color you are!

I see your view! But it is mighty funny how we see every other race trying to be like us. It seems as if almost everybody wants to be black so bad but yet they put us down. But I know why it's because we are unique we have our own style that some will never understand. Don't trip off of what others think about us just be proud that we have so many haters. We must keep on doing things to make them hate on us and continue to move on. But I also see the points of others some black people give off that vibe and make that reputation for us. But I don't because I know that I am not the stereotypical black person I am aobve others expectations of  what black people are.

People actually love blacks and often try to mimic our style and culture.(Contrary to the other answer you received). Don't look anywhere in particular, just out your window and you will see what I mean. People perish for lack of knowledge, and thats what its all about. Lack of knowledge of other cultures. There are stereotypes of disease and sickness from Africa, which can be said of just about every other nation. Again, just be yourself and don't worry about trying to integrate.

I believe the dominant gene is for non attached ear lobes. It is a imple case of genetics where you must carry the a double recesive gene in order to have attached ear lobes. This may also be a case of more complicated genetics than one simpel gene, but the basis of why some people have them and some don't is genetics, just like eye color. This probably means that some races or ethnicities have higher rates of one or the other form.

At least there is no census report. But by mere observation using the law of probability we may say that people with abnormally bigger sized ears are found in India because of Caucasian and Mongoloid mixture of racial stock.

I prefer to be called Black, not African American. No, I'm not from Africa but of course my ancestors are. But given the fact that many African Americans from Africa have treated me like sh*t like any other racist idiot, I'd rather not be called that. I have heard from many of them that we (Blacks) are not pure Africans and that we are a disgrace to their people. The ones I've encountered looks at us and treat us like dogs. I'm cool on them. Don't want to ever be associated with them. Don't get me wrong, not all of them are like that. But the majority I've encountered are.

Me: African-American woman.  1. Personally I'm tired seeing it...media tends to focus on black men with white women exclusively, this helps to send out the message that black men consider white women to be their ideal standard of beauty...for some black men, having a white woman helps to validate their status in life... however not every black man wants or feels the need to have a white woman on their arm. 2. I also find it very interesting how very little attention is given to relationships between white men/black women. Hmmm, what does this really say about society, and American culture in general?

No, it is not strange at all. I am black and was trained classically on Piano, Organ, and HARPSICHORD!!! I have my GOSPEL CHOIR hooked on the works of Handel. My boyfriend is 6'4", over 250 with dreadlocs down his back and is one of the biggest rock fans I know. We are definitely "outside the box" when it comes to our interests in music, but we don't pay attention to people looking at us strange at concerts either. You'll run into people who think it is weird, but just remember-- THEY are the closed-minded ones.  Enjoy your music and keep rockin' baby!

Maybe because Marley came out of Jamaica while African Americans are from other areas. Do you think that's true today? . Whoever didn't catch him while he was alive will get him at some point, because Marley's music will live forever.

Very good question, I don't know why black people are called African Americans. Some black people have never even been to Africa. But it everyone wants to get technical we are all African Americans. when life frist started we all came from Africa. When all the contenients were together it was call something like( shit I forgot the name ) but africa was the center of it all . even in biblicul times, it said we all came from that region. So again we are all African american in a way
