Grey, racism, and my sister

Grey posted this video of a republican making a "racist" remark:

Well I saw my sister this weekend and she told me some interesting stories regarding some of her black coworkers/doctors. Apparently a lot of black people really can't swim:

Researchers found that after the age of 10, the risk of drowning in a swimming pool was up to 15 times greater among black males as compared with white males.

A 15 fold difference in drowning rates is pretty major. I guess there are a lot of things from bone density, muscle placement, etc that make it more difficult to learn although . That is the thought process among her fellow doctors anyway. Obviously social differences plays a factor as well. However, most of them joked that water "messes up our hair". I just thought it was extremely odd to know that all the black doctors she worked with literally couldn't swim.

Please keep in mind that I have nothing against black people. I am merely trying to correct "reverse-racism" that sometimes gets in the way of reality for no good reason. Everybody is just different.
