Nig-roes are also under represented in swimming. In my little town, 40 years ago we had a big public pool, and there would be on a hot July day, 150 black kids in that pool. Bunch of 8 and 12 year old kids, more blacks in there than whites. But the black kids would not swim. Even in the shallow end where you could wade across, they would just cling to the side. 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. 😬
