Why some people are black and others white and brown story 
(Favourite story from Philippines) 
When the world was young, no one lived on earth. Every day, Magbabaya, the 
God of life, looked down on the earth from his home in the sky. 
“Oh, how lovely the earth looks! It’s so big but yet so empty!” 
One day, he had a bright idea. 
“I must make some people to live on earth.” 
He jumped down from his home in the sky. He dug up, some earth and 
mixed it with water. He then made some human beings out of it. He laid 
them on the ground to dry in the sun. 
Soon he returned to the sky, he hunted the whole day in the sky forest, 
afterwards, he went home with the animals he had caught. Suddenly, he 
remembered the people he had left to dry in the sun. he returned to earth as 
fast as he could. But they had already been burnt as black as coal by the hot 
sun. He shook his head. “I must try again,” he said. “Next time, I’ll be careful 
not to leave them so long under the sun.”
Again, he made some human beings out of clay. He laid them out carefully to dry 
under the sun. but he was so worried this time that he did not leave them long 
enough. They were not baked properly. When he looked at them, he saw that they 
were too pale. 
He said. “Tomorrow when the sun shine, I shall make some more people. This time, 
I shall make sure they are baked longer.” 
Once more, he took some clay and made some human beings out of it. He laid them 
carefully in the sun. when he thought that the sun was getting too hot, he covered 
them with leaves, and put them in the shede. 
Then he let a gentle breeze blow over them. Every now and again, he turned each of 
them over so that they would have the same light brown colour all over. 
When he had finished, he looked proudly at his work. They were a golden brown 
colour and very good to look at. “They are perfect!” he cried happily. 
Then he collected all the human beings he had made and placed them in different 
parts of the world. 
And this is why we have black, white and brown people today.
