Answer:
Hilarious!
To think that Beethoven was WHITE, as though such a thing even existed, or exists now!
The notion of BLACK, or WHITE people, is an AMERICAN, and thoroughly RACIST invention.
RACIALIST, at best - as though there is any useful, meaningful, or SCIENTIFIC information that can be gathered from such a categorization.
As though every human being on earth didn't come from AFRICA in the first place.
That's right SUB-SAHARAN BLACK AFRICA - the source of the worlds human population.
A categorization brought about in the minds of certain people and propagated throughout Western societies, most notably AMERICA, for the sole purpose of maintaing a status quo, justifying the ill-treatment and exploitation of certain groups of humans.
A categorization that people have internalized, and cling to to enhance their self-concept and lay claim to privilege in the societies of man.
PEOPLE, we are all PEOPLE!
HUMAN BEINGS, one and ALL!
ALL from the same source.
There is simply no meaningful characterization or indicator of human potential that can be determined from the color of a person's skin, or other 'racial' features.
But don't think for a moment that Beethoven, or any other European, or any other human being, alive now, or EVER, is devoid of the DNA and human ancestry that comes from nowhere else but AFRICA.
Get real!
