"I'm not being racist but"

As someone else said, cultural influences, and the societal differentiations that have evolved from said influences would be one major cause of advancement occurring at different phases and at different speeds.

I think people need to start looking past the whole racial divide 'we're more evolved' bollocks and start looking at one we can advance humanity as a whole, in its entirety. The issues we face on earth will be global ones in the future, so we need to act globally to combat them.
