re: Why do poor black kids in other countries all have Cleft palates?

Have literally never seen a single cleft palate here in America in person. Cleft palates aren't really welcome by the white privileged so we don't allow our kids to have them.

They're not exactly unheard of here.

My wife is an SLP and has clients with them. They're way more common in South America though. Her practice normally sends a few people to S. America for a few weeks a year.
