Almost everything that you come in contact with on a daily basis was invented by a white man. Disagree? Write me up a list of things invented by others. I’ll wait.
This is really really picky, and delving into genetics, but Jews have come up with a lot of conceptual things and achieved very high educational knowledge status thousands of years ago. They were stateless but dark. No, they weren’t deep black but they were dark Mediterranean looking and no doubt had African blood. It’s not the skin that determines achievement but behavior. What does the society respect? Jewish society respected reading and education very early on, and their status (often right next to kings who were dumb as rocks and couldn’t read) reflected and recapitulated their focus on being learned.
And I’m praying for your dear wife, may today be better for her.
