The sensitivity of the skin to sunlight for different races, the quality of the installation of the skin and the extent of previous exposure to the sun. But every person vulnerable to the sun in one form or another.

The persons who have darker skin color are less vulnerable and more resistant to the adverse effects of the sun's rays, which include: burning of the skin, the deficit early, skin cancer .. Because they have more melanin.

Whites do not enjoy the presence of any amount of melanin in the skin, so the skin have been affected by a very large from the sun and burn of less exposure to sunlight. Whites are more prone to skin cancer if not taken care of direct exposure to sunlight or avoided.
