I gotta try and find out if we as so called black people are breaking even on this. As I said before I see a lot of black youth at the pool, but few if any are actually swimming and then of that group maybe a little over half can't swim properly. My mom couldn't (and still can't) swim, but she made sure I took lessons. So how about ya'll? I'm talking head in the water, alternating breaths, swimming.
