Holy Crap! Did you listen to yourself while you were writing this or are you really that stupid? I can't believe that you actually said that we would have go waaaaaay back in history to find white people chasing their dinner with spears, but that black people are doing that this very afternoon. This question doesn't even warrant an informational response.

You make this sound like such a bad thing. Hunter/gatherer societies tend to have to work only about twenty hours a week, and they don't have quite the prevalence of depression and addiction that our so-called civilized societies do. They're also a lot healthier; cavities were rare before the Agricultural Revolution and we're just now attaining the heights common back then. That's the lifestyle that we're meant to live.
There are still hunter/gatherer societies left, generally in the fringe areas we agriculturalists haven't yet taken over. It's mostly in South America, Africa, and Australia and surrounding islands that you'll find them, as well as Canada and Alaska. It's hardly separated by ethnic lines, except inasmuch as European agriculturalists killed off the hunter/gatherers millenia ago, so there aren't very many white hunter/gatherers any more.

Probably less than 1000 years. I've never really thought about it before but before guns were invented the only way to eat meat was to kill an animal with bow and arrow or spear or something.I don't think many white people ran through the jungle however so it was more likely to be Epping Forest or somewhere!

As an alien? to this planet I can assure you- there won't be much to find - feel free to accept the fact that (at the end of the day)- you all make "white" bones though

White people did not evolve in jungle environments. We evolved in cold climates, so we never ran "naked through the jungle". We chased our dinner wearing heavy fur coats due to the extreme cold...

thats because white people are to lazy to hunt this way. hell dick cheney had to have a field stocked with quail, use a gun and a dog, and still managed to shoot his friend instead of a bird. white people would starve if they tried to use a spear.
P.s. white people were still hunting with spears into the 1500's

"white" people? "black" people?
So were different colours
And were different creeds
And different people
Have different needs
Its obvious you hate me
Though Ive done nothing wrong
Ive never even met you
So what could I have done
I cant understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand
People are people
So why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
