Yes. How often do you see black swimmers at the world meet???
Why??? Africa is a continent of deserts. They run better b'cos sand is hot to run on when bare-foot.

Speaking in strict stereotypes (since this question is obviously written in one) Yes. Black people do not like the water or the woods. Cubans are the best swimmers. How do you think they get here? White people are ok swimmers but lack the rhythm required to be really good swimmers, or dancers for that matter. Jews have enough money to buy their way out of swimming, but will swim rather than spend it. Mexicans are pretty good swimmers too, but are best known for their running skills. In this aspect they are like black people. Both blacks and Mexicans are well known for running from the police.
Let's see what other stereotypes can we throw in here? I figure since the question is ignorant the asker should get an ignorant answer.
Oh.. Indians. (Woo woo indians, not red dot on forehead indians) Indians are too drunk to swim. Drunk on that firewater that the whiteman gave him. And the red dot indians don't swim because... well, there's no water in the desert so they never learned.
I'm guessing the person who asked the question can't swim and would drown in a puddle, being none too bright enough to lift his/her head.
You could have at least asked the question in a humorous non-racist way.

No my husband is black and he swims just fine. So does my mixed son and daughter. Anyone can be a bad swimmer if they are not taught how. It does not matter what race color or creed you are. Anyone can be a good or bad swimmer. I have met some adult white people who cant put their toes in the water without almost drowning. I wonder why you asked this question.

I am a black man and I am an excellent swimmer. I think the majority of us do not really care about it. You take second place for the dumbest question of the day.

why do people have to seperate the blacks from the whites? we are all people. Some people are bad swimmers and some are good.

The only bad swimmers are those that do not know how to swim..

No, people (any color) that can't swim are bad swimmers...Im sure that there are quite a few white people that are bad swimmers, too...

Have seen many black do well in in national and international swimming competitions, and as they get more access to Olympic size pools and training the number grows, but one with chains around there neck sink like rocks.
