[QUOTE]Originally posted by lamin: [QB] To Willing Thinker: Note that I used the word "encourage" to qualify what I wrote about access to sporting activities. Encouragement usually comes from private and government intitiatives and as a result there would always be individuals who on account of just persoan interest or fascination will engage in a sport or activity the general culture shows little inclination for. You mention educational resources for African Americans and Africans. As an egalitarian your observation is erroneous. Here's why: African Americans are some 4% of the world's total black population. Africans in Africa constitute some 90% of t he world's blacks so on a strictly per capita basis your point doesn't hold. I don't deny that cultural(that is learned behaviour that is passed on generationally)factors play an important role and that's why when there's intervention[encouragement along with opportunities] into a specific culture by outside forces such as the government--cultural traits often change.
