I don't have a source to back it up since it's only something I heard on the news, but IIRC there is some sort of biological defence that many people have developed in tropical areas of Africa that protects them against forms of malaria, but in turn makes them more vulnerable to AIDS.

On the issue of Jews stereotypically having large noses, why are people so easily offended by this? In Scotland, why do so many people have ginger hair (including myself, just about)? It is through genetics and on a larger scale the ancestry of many of the Scottish people. That is all the term "race" really means. It doesn't mean we're all different species. It doesn't make me better or worse than anyone with black hair. So why pretend that my hair is the same colour as most people's? There's no point sticking your head in the sand, in the end that just makes it out to be a bigger issue than it really is.
