Drive Moment - Unproven Reasons Why You Think Black Doesn't Crack?

Loading player...
Science has brought us the real reasons behind that urban legend, "Black Don't Crack". We know that our skin ages a little slower than Caucasian skin types, due to the difference in composition of melanin and collagen in our skin. With that in mind, some of us are social theorists, who have fun and casual ideas about this common phrase, "Black Don't Crack", and how black people age. Could there be other unproven, silly reasons why you believe that "Black don't crack"? These reasons may not be scientific at all, but they can certainly make us laugh!  Take a listen to  what our listeners shared with Kgomotso and Skhumba.
