Black people generally are physically dominant to all other races and therefore have strong voices.\nThey are, on the other hand, usually not as intellectually equip as some others.\nIt is obvious why if you can just take an honest look at it. Where do blacks originate from and where do whites originate from. Flared nostrils are for greater air intake. greater muscle mass for running and fighting. Heightened sense of awareness to detect danger. They needed these things to survive in an African environment. A high IQ does little to help one out run a lion.\nWhites and some Asian people on the other hand had to be able to plan well ahead in order to survive a harsh winter. They needed to finds the means and invent many things to help them survive. Though blacks and some other warmer climate peoples needed to use their intelligence to survive as well and whites and certain Asian peoples needed some physical abilities to make it too, each of the peoples were giving and or developed what they needed most to survive in the premodern world.\nIn each case there are exceptions, however generally these are where the gifts and talents of most of the people in the particular races fall.

Blacks have made many important contributions throughout history in science, medicine, law, athletics, and many other fields. In other words, it's not just the music.

Not all black people act "tough" as you say it. That is another stereo-type and it's wrong. Seems to me like you're then one acting tough. In your details you mention that you've fought a lot black guys. Do you go around looking for fights to get in? I mean I know that black people just don't come up to you and try to pick a fight with you everywhere you look. Lets be honest with ourselves instead of twisting reality into a story that's not true.

I have experienced it all, and with help you can overcome anything. I have been taught that all of our thoughts are just in our head because of the things we learned in the past.....\n“He who has conquered doubt and fear has conquered failure.” - As A Man Thinketh\n\nI have come to believe that the greatest diseases of mankind are doubt and fear. That is not to lessen the seriousness of some of our other afflictions, but doubt and fear rob more people of more life than all the other diseases of the world put together.\n\nWhy do I think they are diseases? Well they are acquired, we were not born with them. They are communicable - much of the time, they are passed from one person to the next. But clearer is the Merriam-Webster dictionary which says a disease is "a condition of the living animal...that impairs normal functioning." Sounds like fear and doubt to me.\n\nDoubt keeps us from going for the promotion that we certainly would have gotten had we gone for it; from asking for the big order that the next person got because they asked; from making positive and long lasting changes in our life because they "rock the boat."\n\nFear causes us to make weak and irrational decisions that sell out our future for the sake of today. It takes our happiness, our sleep, our very life.\n\nIn her outstanding book, Conquer Fear!, Lisa Jimenez lists "The Seven Truths" that can help us overcome fear:\n\n”Truth #1\nFear is the dominant problem in your life today.\n\nTruth #2\n\nFear is a gift that was instilled in you as a means of protection and a way to bring you closer to God.\n\nTruth #3\n\nWhen you run from or deny your fear, you leave the gift unopened.\n\nTruth #4\nWhen your fear of success or fear of failure is exposed, you break through their control over you.\n\nTruth #5\n\nYour belief system is the driving force behind your behaviors and your results.\n\nTruth #6\n\nYour everyday habits are broadcasting your belief system, your fear, and your unmet needs loud and clear.\n\nTruth #7\nChange your beliefs and you change your behaviors.\nChange your behaviors and you change your results.\nChange your results and you change your life.”\n\nAnd that is worth thinking about.\n\nGood luck and I know you can do it!

The same reason why someone is proud to be black, or proud to be a woman, or proud of anything. I personally think that pride usually leads to arrogance, which is why many people who say their so proud, usually are. I'm black by the way. I'm happy to be alive, but I don't wear a proud sign on my head.\n\nIt's understandable to overcome being discriminated against by learning to be proud about yourself, but some people over do it, and become arrogant and selfish some end up discriminating those who discriminated against them, which is equally wrong.

I think Black people are underappreciated and under-respected. Overgeneralized and misunderstood.  Each and every Black person is different from the next, so if anyone really wants to know about Black people, just learn in a respectful way.

Of course they made some difference, but folks need to think \nfor themselves . I have noticed that blacks in general do not go \nout of their way to help each other like Jews, etc. have gone \nthrough a rough time, but have supported one another.

Negroes survived by just living through the laws of Jim Crow.  They worked together and tried to lay low.  Many negroes moved North so that they could get out of the harsh segragation of Jim Crow.

Yes it is true.  Melanin is a wonderful thing when it comes to aging.  That an the fact that black people don't subject their skin to the harshness of the sunlight in the way that some do.
