and that it was never marketed because it was definitive proof that there are biological differences between people of different races? i believe it was a medication for high blood pressure.
now tell me that we're all the same.

Not exactly true. Yes there is a drug that seems to work much more effectively in blacks than whites but it IS on the market. The trouble is the damn pharmaceutical companies are so frickin greedy they want to make trillions with every new drug. It was felt that a drug that only worked on a portion of the population might bot be worth further development. I beg to differ though! If you happen to be in the portion of the population, which in this case is blacks who already have an increased risk of high blood pressure, It's just plain and simple WRONG to not make it available and (dare I say it?!) AFFORDABLE!

No, I didn't know. What's the name of this drug? We're all the same.

Bull crap. Articles like the one you got your "facts" from are propaganda put out by bigots trying to prove scientifically they are superior to other races.
Research real DNA studies. There is absolutely NO DIFFERENCE. In fact, humans share 96.95% of their DNA with chimps.
