Ahh, I’m glad that CNN brought up the “centuries of inequality”. I believe one of the inequalities is intelligence.

South Africa’s nation IQ average is a combination of the two main ethnic groups. These can easily be compared by looking at the Dutch (the Afrikanner’s heritage) which is tied for #6 in the world at 102 and Zimbabwe, which is probably what South Africa would be if you subtracted the several million Whites. It is rated #77 of 81, with an average IQ score of 66.

Somehow I’m expecting CNN won’t mention this. Instead we will be fed the “history of racism” bullcrap.

Thinking about it: if you had a child with an IQ of 66 would you prefer that they live in a society run by others with IQ’s of 66, or one run by people with IQs of 102? Which is more humane?

That list is very interesting, although I doubt some of it’s individual rankings. What is the source for it?
