Why is that everybody gives credits for Asians for technology, white people for almost everything else... but?

Question

Not black people for pratically inventing music?

Not one of those questions playing the race cards.. but curious. I could only name a handful of good white artists..

Answer 1

True, but Black people invented a lot more than just music. You have to actually go to a bookstore or the library to find a book on the inventions that Black people made. Meanwhile, you hear about the others everywhere all the time.

Answer 2

Credit is given to blacks but I guess it's not... important enough for people to notice. I mean blacks invented more than just music

Answer 3

Black people are credited for a lot. Rap, jazz, break dancing, etc. White people created classical music back in Europe.

Answer 4

Modern-day music as we know it, dance, style, clothing, language, the Hip Hop movement, world-class and unrivaled athletes, and much more... Blacks have contributed a lot to this world.

Answer 5

Not music just good music

Answer 6

we've invented more than that but yeah, you're right. a lot of modern music has black/African roots, nobody wants to admit it though!

Answer 7

I get you, like jazz right?

I'm not black, nor do I like jazz music,

but I know many whites do,

blacks have many accomplishments that go unnoticed.

Answer 8

You could only name a handful of good white artists?

Answer 9

Blacks created a lot more than music, its just something our little "history books" fail to tell us. Now i know Mexican is not a race, but they still contributed to things too! Lol.

Answer 10

I agree with Martinez.

Answer 11

Its not taught in schools.

It would kil them to know we invented Rock and Roll. o.O

Answer 12

You are right. They may be loud as hell but they do have a lot of talent in music.

Answer 13

All the music supposedly invented by blacks is played on instruments invented by whites using a musical scale invented by whites.



And if you look closer at the technology, you'll find that whites did that, too.

Answer 14

asians invented everything pretty much if it was not for us you would still be in the dark ages we are the smartest and most beautiful.
