Yet in the 1920s IQ tests were used to “prove” that Jews were mental defectives.
I would like to see a study of black communities prior to the welfare state.
It is not written about very much, but in those days the black family structure was much stronger than it is today.
The other element that muddies the waters is the racism within the black community where lighter skinned blacks are given more status than darker skinned blacks.
I have never seen an IQ study that touched that issue.
Because the universities have been gripped by political correctness these issues cannot be openly discussed.
Yes, the IQ test does have an ugly history, I've seen the old photographs of Darwinists running around with calipers measuring skulls, craniometers I believe they called them. They believed cranial capacity dictated intelligence. Darwinism, Eugenics, Nazism and Progressivism were all rolled up together at the time. May still be.
