yes black skin absorbs and white skin reflect it, that's why white skin is prone to nasty skin cancers.

Don't be daft. You can't attract sunlight! Also, think about it. Black people aren't acutally black, are they? Nor are white people actually white. Also, think about this; if black people 'attract' more sunlight, how come it is white people that are at a higher risk of skin cancer? Could that be true if white people reflected sunlight? I think not.

Do you mean 'absorbs' more sunlight? I have absolutely no idea, but I would say they have more protection from sunlight due having more melanin in their skin than white people.
The way you phrased your question was like the sun only comes out when black people are around lol. HTH : )

Omg! lol its not that you asked a question like that, but that some people actually said yes?! "Black" people don't "attract" sunlight...
And "White" people don't "reflect" it!...I hope these are children answering this question, because I hope an adult wouldn't be that "mentally challenged" to give an answer like that.

I don't think anyone can actually attract sunlight. But I doubt that skin pigment has too much bearing on what sun does to us. If that were the case albinos would walk around with a cloud over their head.

It is as true as white people attracting more darkness than blacks. Correct?

it's like a black car is hotter inside than a white car, black absorbs heat and white reflects it off.

in all seriousness black people repel the suns harmful rays better than whites but they often have a vitamin c deficiency because our main source of vitamin c comes from the sun and enters via our skin.
