Why do African American dominate the sprinting distances so thoroughly. Better still, why is it wrong to acknowledge that this dominance is based on being naturally faster?

Yo starman,initially blacks are fast & whites are not,as you in the saying,'white man can't jump & black man can't swim'.This is due to human genetics & the environment in which we in. Like you most of the dangerous animals in this world are from Africa.We have lions tigers cheetahs etc here in Afirca.There are many more reseasons, the reseason why African americans progress in the sport is because of the technology.There is way too much technology up there in the states. Africans are naturally fast but African americans are faster because of their advanced technolgy. Have you ever thought of the fact that African americans come from africa, but africans never seem to make it far especially in the sprints,that's all because of technology.The only african to make it in sprints is Frankie Freddricks & that's because he trains in america.I'm sorry I had to rush through this but I kind of have a class other wise I would give you more & better reseason why african americans are better.By the way they are not naturally fast, its tech.........

In his book "Taboo: Why Black Athletes Dominate Sports and Why We're Afraid to Talk About It", Jon Entine interviewed scientists who have done research into elite athletes.

The scientists said that people from different parts of the world have differences in their DNA that affect more than skin color. Your muscles are a mixture of fast twitch fibers and slow twitch fibers. Sprinting speed comes from fast twitch, and endurance from slow twitch.

Entine said it has been shown, using the list of Olympic track and field medalists, that a different area of the world produces the best athletes in each event. Not the country of citizenship, but where their ancestors came from. Sprint medalists are from the Caribbean. Distance medalists are from one part of Kenya.

Is it wrong to talk about it? Only if you are a leftist. The scientists in Entine's book have already been insulted by their leftist academic peers for daring to study anything connected with race. Some feel they can't publish their scientific results in academic journals for fear of reprisal. Leftists don't tolerate scientific proof. Leftists believe freedom of speech only applies to themselves.

Alan3494 hit the nail on the nail on the head.

I believe experiments proved africans/african americans produce natural creatine at a higher rate thus helping power and restore fast and slow twitch muscle fibers alike.

Simply saying that somebody wins a race because a person is
