Political Correctness Gone Mad
Freddy Woo writes: "I once worked on an animation to help highlight the issues homeless people face in winter. The client was happy with the work, then a note came back that the ethnic mix of the characters were wrong. These were cartoon characters. They weren't meant to be ethnically anything, but we were forced to make one of them brown, at the cost of about 10k to the charity. This is how your donations are spent. Wisely as you can see."

Physiological differences
are quite real. I don't know about the bone density thing, but I do know that the pelvis of a black man is shaped differently than the pelvis of a white man, so the hip joint works more efficiently for a black guy- hence black runners being faster and black basketball players being able to jump better.
