Blacks are scared of the water and most of them won't swim.

It isn't that blacks don't have access to swimming, it is just that they, 97 percent of them, just refuse to swim.

That’s because they sink. 😬


Witnessed a Negro child drown in the Negro pool one day in 1968. Said she couldn't swim when someone was asked. Also asked why the lifeguard didn't help out.. said he couldn't swim either.

Sad.
