I mean I don't think most black Americans know a foreign language either, because most of them aren't part of an immigrant diaspora. And IIRC, this phenomenon happens to some extent in most predominantly English speaking countries. Most foreign language learning is a matter of practicality more than a desire to expand knowledge or something, and most non-immigrant Americans don't have any particular reason to learn one.
