Everyone should try and do some or other form of sport as it not only keeps one healthy but also teaches how to interact with other people. It also helps many to accept how to be gracious when winning or losing. There are some people that still ask if there are any white privilege sports left but irrespective of color it is a sport where many still make friends no matter what the race might be.
Many years ago in all races it was the norm for the whites to have a leg up over the blacks in regard to having jobs, housing as well as schooling. It meant that the whites were given an advantage of having a head start. In some cases this might still be true. A survey was taken in the United States of America asking the population if there were certain benefits in today's society to being white. The poles came back with fifty three percent saying yes, forty two saying no, and three percent saying they don't know.
If one is willing to work hard and not rely on others in order to survive one will become a respected citizen irrespective of race. The same applies in sports. Working hard for what one believes in will always secure success no matter what field it may be.
A good book that all should read is the Shades of White, an examination of whiteness in sports. It is about one hundred and three pages long and was published the end of November twenty ten. It is available on line as was written by Jonathan Long and Kevin Hylton.
Skateboarding is a great sport that involves many complicated tricks and is also considered a job as well as a means of transportation. When it first became popular it was considered to be a white's only sport but that is now being changed by William Lee Lamar. He has been doing surfing and skateboarding for over twenty two years and he is now bringing his passion to people of his own race.
Skate parks have been constructed since the nineteen seventies not only for skating but also for scooters, freestyle BMXs and aggressive skaters as well. The first of these boards that were made were constructed out of old wooden boxes and boards and then had wheels attached to the bottom. It is thought that these were thought up when the surfers became bored when there were no waves and constructed these to keep themselves busy.
There seems to also be a higher percentage of blacks than whites when it comes to athletics. This could be because they have acquired these qualities through either environmental or hereditary factors. They seem to have more of an inborn physical skill when it comes to running as well as wanting to succeed.
The freestyle is the oldest style and was very popular in the nineteen sixties and then again in the nineteen nineties. This is best done when there is music and during the years the flat surfaces have fallen away to having steps as well as banisters to ride on. The slalom is when the riders go down a hill weaving through a course of plastic cones.
