I have encountered research by several reputed scientists that says that the mean IQ's of different races are different. They are (for the major races):
East Asians: 105
Whites: 99
South Asians / North Africans: 84
Africans: 70
Mixed races usually have IQ's that lie between the composite races. Blacks in the US have a higher mean (85) than Africans due to a combination of European ancestry and better nutrition.
(There are also scientists who claim that the mean IQ's of different races are exactly equal but fail to provide any evidence supporting this.)
My question: Does merely believing in the validity of such research make a person a racist? Is there any objection to this being taught at schools or universities? For the record, I belong to one of the intellectually inferior races, so I may be being a little slow...
Well yes especially after you have given the fact out the IQ difference between africans and north americans of african decent. there according to your own research is a 5% difference. which means it is not race but culture and or societal influences that determine IQ yet you persist on race as being the determining factor. again if race was what determined intelligence then society nor culture would have any bearing on intelligence, yet there i a 5% difference in the members of the sae race but of a different community.
