It does not matter what country you are in (for the most part), race is a determining factor (or has been) in social standards.

Those bunch of burger flipping kids that made millions on the Internet probably did so from there dad's computer and learned portions of computer related skills from highschool. If your theory were valid, then it would extend to people living in Indonesia, China and Peru. Why haven't more of them (or any in some cases) made millions on the Internet?
I don't think that saying there aren't enough blacks on the Internet making money validates any theory that racism has not contributed to our current social dilemnas.
The United States enslaved blacks for years while saving money on work labor and becoming what we have today: a superpower.
I am not arguing over today's race tensions, I think they are blown out of proportion (in other words, don't blame me for my ancestry), but judging a race / ethnicity's worth by arguing history and it's cohesive relationship with present time socio-economics using who invented donuts or who made millions online as your main premise seems a bit questionable. It is what it is.
But that is just my take on it, and I am not the brightest bulb on GFY. So take it for what it is worth.
GFY never ceases to amaze me.

Yes so true. The past is what dictates the future.
If you enslave blacks for hundreds of years do not expect them to catch up in a few decades.
