Fun fact: When European missionaries first arrived in Uganda in the late 1800's the blacks there were astounded to learn that the whites could actually swim in Lake Victoria. Swimming was considered a miraculous feat for blacks.

They weren't even smart enough to learn how to swim.

It wasn't about smarts. Blacks have considerably higher bone density, enough that staying afloat while swimming is much harder for them.
