Inequality. I've lived my adult life in Maryland (in the most affluent black county in the country, which makes it upper-middle on national stats) and Rhode Island (which is just shit). The effects of the access to quality food; quality healthcare; quality natural resources like clean air and water; and the presence or absence of chronic financial problems on an individual or governmental level are stark. Every time I go home to Maryland, I feel like a midget at 5'8". The teenagers tower over me, the adults too. I come to (overwhelmingly white) Newport during the winter, and suddenly I'm the big guy if I don't encounter too many high-ranking officers on base. But come summer, when all the affluent white people from New York and New England come around? Back to Shortsville. I could never live in Minnesota.

So it's not about race. It's about how rich your community is and how well the wealth is spread.

Since height isn't distributed equally geographically but is probably higher in places of affluence and lower in places of poverty, and since black integration correlates positively with black affluence, it would make sense that taller black people would be in areas of higher integration, and shorter black people would be in areas of high segregation.

Also the average for white men is 5'10.5, and for black men it's 5'10.

Average height for American indians encountered in the US was something like 5'11 in the 1600s, without modern medicine. Average height among Maasai is 6ft, again without access to much of the resources that allow modern Europeans to reach their genetic height. Koreans have been growing rapidly for the past 3 decades and will soon pass America and reach parity with Europe.

You're full of shit and need to learn how to capitalize correctly.

only about 5% of euopreans are lactose intolerant and yeah if youre short drinking milk wont make you a giant. one reason why koreans will never have a 6'1" average height no matter what. they are short people

on top of being genetically short asians have shitty fucboi diets that have very low calcium which is why the start to have a 90 degree bend when they age

i didnt even know "koreans are tall" was a meme and i have no idea where it came from. my only guess is that you yourself are korean and living out some wish fulfillment

Lies, damned lies, statistics, etc. So, context: family income doesn't account for family wealth, community wealth, or historical trends for the three, all of which have been shown to have an effect on academic success. Also height.

> i want to point out that this is an argument about whites being the tallest race. something that is objective and demonstratively true.
And it's objectively and demonstratively true that height correlates with wealth and inequality, and further, that it changes over time with it. Ergo, if black Americans are chronically under-resourced compared to white Americans (a notion, in fact, bolstered by your SAT stats), how much would the difference change should inequality be eradicated? Would the difference also disappear? Would it reverse?

The stats say yes, Billy Bob.
