You essentially already asked this question in a previous post, which I answered.

What sets it apart so much that people are willing to kill each other over it?

I'm not exactly sure what you mean here. How do you know that people are actually killing each other over black culture?

What is so important that people are willing to generate an arbitrary and unnecessary divide in american culture based on it?

I believe that black and other minority cultures developed due to a forced divide by the powers that be back in the day. If there was any arbitrariness involved, I would say that it was on the side of the powers that be. Those cultures remain today because they provide a rich history and legacy for those people not necessarily covered by mainstream culture...plus they preserve the culture and help ensure that it continues. And I don't think that's a bad thing.

All I'm asking, and this applies to all of the associated parties, is what is so important about skin color that it's necessary to make up cultural differences when it's more important that we generate a set of synergistic commonalities instead?

See my response above. I'm not sure that synergistic commonalities are so important.
