It depends on how many birds heard the notes first. they just copy what they hear and ad to it.
So that is what people do too. We hear, mimic, redo.

A few things;
1) Even if one believes that race is primarily a cultural construct, this does not mean that there are not substantive differences in the frequency of certain genetic traits in various populations.
see Genetic Drift (link)
2) There various races do have different average IQ scores; I talked about that
here (link). The debate, then, is whether or not race is a causal factor.
3) Every known bit of currently existing life lives on earth, so I've no idea what point you were trying to get across with,
"All humans live on planet earth." Are you suggesting Lobsters & American Indians have no significant genetic difference?
