It’s malnutrition.

u/FireHammer09 1d ago

It's not, they're just one of the most ethnically homogeneous groups in the world and they happen to have a high enough population that it's noticeable

u/No_Factor_1269 1d ago

No its not lol i know ethnic somali people raised in england that look like that

Why do they continue being malnourished when they’re born in America?

Have you seen what’s in the food in America?

u/Hamster_Thumper 20h ago

Ahh yes because if there's one thing we Americans are known for: its being skinny. Right....
