but all blood types exist among all groups of people, and are cross compatible between races.
or would you prefer to be constantly hooked up to a blood harvesting machine so that more people can have access to your obviously superior plasma, etc.?

Never said my plasma was superior or anything about blood types among groups. I just can't remember ever seeing a black donor at all and a few latinos and asians. It's just usually white people doing the donating. I even used to donate platelets, and I can't remember ever seeing a non-white do that.

I presume you live and donate in a majority white area?
Numbers do indicate less participation by blacks compared to whites.
But I imagine area demographics play a part.
