Stupidest thing I ever read. This guy, naturally, defines “intelligence” from an entirely white Eurocentric white, and he’s apparently not smart enough to realize that different peoples develop differnt kinds of “intelligence.
Even so, there are clearly brilliant black people all over the place by those same white Eurocentric parameters.

Different kinds of intelligence? More detail please
At one point I was reading some research about blacks doing very well on tests involving making correct split-second decisions. Which might be a contributing reason why blacks are so over-represented in basketball (which involves a lot of fast decision making as to who is in the best position to pass to without interception).

You are joking with the above statement I hope.
That is the wacky thinking behind all the attempts to dumb down much of k -12 education as well as university course ok. And testing for employment, etc....
Facts are facts, truth is truth. There are no “different types” of intelligence. Math and science is math and science.
I don’t know: after thousands of years they couldn’t come up with the wheel. What does that tell you?
There are brilliant black people. But since you are condemning HIS analysis of intelligence, then YOU define intelligence so that it encompassed all races equally.
How many times have you heard of a black being promoted over a whole slew of white police officers when one of the primary decision tools is the score on a particular test?
How many blacks vs whites drop out of college because they are not academically up to the task? I can tell you that it is significantly more. You cannot blame all of it on the public elementary and high schools.
How many great civilizations came out of central and southern Africa? None.
How many African countries run primarily by black Africans are considered modern, industrial countries? Again, none.
Like it or not, people ARE different and PEOPLES are, too.
As a whole, if you go into a schoolroom with and equal number of white kids and black kids, you can be guaranteed that the black kids will not do as well academically.
The people here pride themselves as being politically incorrect, but most of you have been too indoctrinated and are too scared to admit the truth.
Flame away, I can take it.
