It's in our DNA they say! Well while that may be true as well, there is another underlying theme why Black people in this country dominate major sports. We aren't given too many outlets to excel in. Think about it... Most Black people in this country come from a poor background. During grade school, sports and entertainment were pushed on us.
\nWe weren't focused on arts and crafts, instruments, or anything like that. You were literally taught to pass your classes so you could play in your team's game that week. This society teaches us early on that Black people should play a sport or become an entertainer to obtain true success. Now things may be changing now as of 2021, but until we get equal opportunities in our communities, things will only change at a slow rate.
\nOf course our people are going to ball out at Basketball and Football if they were taught that this was there only way out! You are going to take the sport more seriously and compete at a different level than most. This is the reason we are superior athletes... These people are out there truly giving their all!
