As others have pointed out, you are wrong.
When people are embarrassed, blood rushes to their faces -- this happens with all races.
It's easier to see when the person has light-colored skin, but Asians, Native Americans, Middle Easterners, and Blacks all blush.

They're not the only race that can blush. Blushing is the blood rushing to your face - it would be physiologically impossible for only a certain "race" to be able to do it.
A blush on a very dark-skinned person wouldn't look "pink," like it does on a fair-skinned person. You would notice more likely a change in shade than an actual redness.

That's inaccurate. People of any pigmentation can have the reaction of the face being suffused with blood, with the concurrent feeling orf heat in the face.
It simply doesn't show to the eye in very dark-skinned people.

Ye Gods, and the bad thing is, I've heard this question more than once. Everybody who reads this, just- just throw the fact out there today, randomly, because at some point this failed common sense. Someone may learn something. I mean, of course people would view races as irreparably different if they thought we different *circulatory systems*!. . . Jesu Christe.

Everyone can blush! You just see it more on white people. And you see it even more on a really fair skinned, red head, such as myself! The darker the skin the less it shows.

White people have less melanin in their skin then we do. We do blush but you won't see it ...our faces will get hot though. But it come ot our advantage cause no one can tell if were nervous lol!

Everyone does but you can see better on someone with very pale skin like White people.

If your skin is dark how will you see the redness. Duh... I am tanned but still blush, you can see the redness but not as much as my boyfriend. He is pale so you can see the blood in his face all of the time. Hence the word red neck...
